My 2018 LR RWD Model 3 was rear ended a month ago and am waiting for my body shop appointment. The car is drivable despite $16,000+ damage. Took about 2 weeks for all the parts to arrive. I posted photos in another thread.
My issue is the key cards no longer unlock toe doors. The cards do enable driving however. I read in the forums this may be a software issue. I receive my usual software updates but they always fail to complete. Possibly due to damaged sensors in the rear bumper. I contacted Tesla about the keycard issue and they sent an update to my car but it failed as well.
My concern is if I take the car to the shop for the collision repair, how will the shop unlock the doors without the key cards? Do I let them register one of their cellphones to the car?
I inquired via the Tesla App which initiated a Tesla mobile service appointment this week but I’m not sure what they can do.
Anyone else have a similar problem / solution or suggestions to my issue?
Thanks!
