So less than 48 hours after taking the delivery on my Model 3, I took the car back in the Service Center because of constant MCU reboots while driving, idling, sitting, driving on the highway, at a stop light, charging - basically anything you can think of. In the 40 or hours that I had the car, I must've had 35+ reboots. Obviously, a reboot means the screen's shut off for 20-30 seconds - no indication of my speed, turn signal, etc.
Here the summary of the 8 or so hours I've spent between being at the dealership and on the phone with virtual assist.
The second to last call I got from the SA this evening, he told me that the reason it was rebooting so much is because I had a version of the previous firmware running somewhere in the code alone with the most recent version - which was causing these random reboots. The engineer was going to "manually" remove the old defunct firmware and update with a specialized patch version that was going to solve the issue for good.
10 minutes later, I get another call where the SA wants to "level" with me and says let us keep the car for a few more days until an official Tesla firmware is rolled out. So here it goes:
Apparently there is a "massive" known bug in the software version 50. that is affecting Model 3's nationwide that is causing random reboots of the MCU. I know 3 other M3 owners running that version WHO HAVE NOT HAD A SINGLE RESTART.
They refuse to believe that this is a hardware issue (which this guy had Display reboots all the time. | Tesla). What a ****in joke.
So I pose a question, would everyone who reads post be kind enough to tell me if you've seen any random restarts of the MCU? Trying to get a feel for how many "nationwide" M3 are affected.
