Sounds like the HV battery might be having issues. Tesla might be able to diagnose remotely.

I've had the that one (Wall Plug Temp High) too. Replacing the 14-50 solved it (14-50 was replaced at ten years. It was amazing the difference in force required to plug in the mobile connector--even though the old one felt solid until I had the new one put in).
Update
thanks for all the feedback 2018 Model S is at SC in NJ which was packed with deliveries and potential new owners
they will not be able to diagnose my car till mid week ... but there is something wrong with the battery ugh ... under warranty but still a hassle
i really hope this is not going to be the case for MY and M3 5 year old vehicles I only have 49000 miles a rarely supercharge... if I was not a TSLA investor i would not have been so forgiving...
Worse case scenario you get a brand new battery for free in your 5 year old model S?Update

Probably a refurb/rebuilt, but yes, a replacement.

Aha! I knew it. I’ve had redneck mountaineers asking me for a while now if I thought this fight would happen. I’ve been telling them all that it’ll happen and all proceeds would go to charity.
Nope, you get a rebuilt that will deliver the same or a little more miles than your current battery. Took 10 days on mine.
this is why i am concerned about battery replacement ... luckily still under warranty and whenever a car is taken apart to this degree other issues may crop up .. fingers crossed it is something else

Ten years ago, Tesla had a battery swap event where they changed out two (2) Model S battery packs in the amount of time it takes to fill an ICE car with gasoline. Electric cars are the future. What degree are you referencing?
this is NJ the can easily F it up .. is this how the SC centers are equipped with this battery swap device shown in video ? i really have no idea .. if yes then i am less worried ....
your confident answers make me think you may have actually had a battery swapped ....good news is there probably have not been that many ... bad news is I dont want to be early on the learning curve

Tesla battery packs swaps we more a thing in the past, less common these days, but you can be sure they know what they're doing

Rivian managed to pull of a win with everything continuing to trend in the right direction. Only costing them $31k per vehicle sold down from $67k the Q before
Whether or not they continue in the right direction is really going to come down to what Tesla decides to do with Cybertruck specs/pricing. If Tesla is aggressive with pricing, Rivian's gonna have to continue to lower prices and margins are gonna go back down.
Will be interesting in general to watch F and Rivian's sales numbers as Cybertruck gets closer and closer. Obviously, Cybertruck with not be in volume production until Q1, but just the fact that deliveries are starting could cause some people to put off buying a F150 Lightning or Rivian.
