I have heard this claim before, and you state it as established fact. On what do you base this claim? How do you know that it is true and not just an unfounded rumor? And I will say that I regard a service center personnel as an unreliable source, as we all know from these forums some of the crazy-ass guesses and justifications service center personnel will spout off from time to time.Tesla logs every individual drive in the trip counter and adds them together to display the total for the trip counter, instead of just keeping a running tally. So an old trip counter can have tens of thousands of trips it has to add together, slowing things.
I am a software engineer and I can say that no responsible software engineer would design a system that uses an unbounded amount of storage. Persistent storage is a limited resource, and if the above was true, at some point it would become full and the car could no longer record a trip, and mileage accumulation would stop. Has that been seen in high-mileage cars?
