Model 3 Wiring Loom Issue

[DeeGee2102]

My car suddenly starting showing different faults popping up all the time after a couple of days. Did a soft reset and a hard reset, just the same problem. Car started to go into neutral when sat at traffic lights for no reason. Took it to Tesla who say water had got into the wiring loom. Tesla have my car now for 3 days and will replace the loom under warranty. Once out of warranty if this issue arises it should be challenged at Tesla. It appears to be a manufacturing fault on RHD vehicles. Replacement will cost about £2000.00 so be aware.

How did water get into the harness? Was it Inside because you left the windows down in the rain or outside where they are supposed to be water-resistant.
