No power steering after summon

There's this street I park on that has perpendicular parking and it's really hard to see when to back out. That's okay, because I can stand outside the car, look both ways and back the car out using summon when the coast is clear. Today I did that but when I got in the car, no power steering! I pulled forward again and parked the car, and backed up again while in the driver's seat, but nothing. I got out, walked away, and then when I came back it worked.

I'll email service, but just an FYI
 
Similar thing happened to me today (without summon). I parked the car, started to get out and then noticed I parked crooked. So, I got back in, left the door ajar and started to correct my park job when the power steering stopped working. A few hours later I got in the car, the Dashboard computer rebooted, and viola, the power steering was back. No error messages. 2016 Model S on version 2018.26.
