My day has come “charge level reduced”

[EstebanP212]

after driving around all morning come home
Park in garage left my car at at like 31% and I was going to go out again 3 hours later I get the error

I have sent a message to tesla service let’s see what they tell me I’m going to try to get a refurbished pack

Oh right forgot to mention my car is 2014 s 60

So... your car is 8 years old with 42k miles and the battery is failing?

Is this a problem specific to the Model S of that time period, or are we all to expect this death sentence nearing the 10 year mark?

Is there even enough evidence to show the longevity of our cars? Doesn't seem like it.

O shoot i should have attached picture with miles
I have 113k miles I did do a good amount of supercharging but also the 60kw battery is supposedly the worst pack of the bunch

~10 years is what I would plan on. That's not Tesla specific, it applies to EVs in general with current Li battery technology.

I have 8 years 135k miles and still get 244 miles at full charge. 85kw original battery.

There are specific design issues with early Model S packs (up to ~early 2015) that make them more likely to fail. Most have nothing to do with actual cell failures. Moisture ingress due to a bad AC condensate drain design, problems with the early battery management boards, etc.

Yeah so I already have been expecting this
I also have scan my tesla set up this what my voltages look like at 23%

Somehow sitting in the service center now it’s charging well past 23%

That's good news, right? Perhaps it was something else and they've resolved it? Or could the problem actually be your charger?

Oh for sure but so weird man lol yeah car is back at my house charging right now

Do you know what the part number of your pack is?

Mine has a ‘C’ suffix if that helps - not sure if these are any better or worse than other revisions
