Waiting might also increase the chances of getting a newer replacement unit. But whether that is an advantage depends on what is the common cause of failure (is it just a blown fuse, I see a ton on the board, is it a failed capacitor, or is it some other component).Not being able to AC charge is nothing like a blowout on the highway.
You can still supercharge / DCFC with the PCS failed, so it just becomes a hassle if all 3 fail. Given most people have only had one fail even after taking months to notice, the chance of the next 2 failing at the same time is super low. The most likely outcome is being stuck at 16A. When one of mine failed, the other two were fine for the next 8+ months before I got it repaired.
But I would also take Tesla to small claims over not covering it under warranty.
