Power steering disabled (among other things), covered under warranty?

I saw this notification pop up, a hard reboot fixed it and it hasn't happened again.

Setup a service appointment, see an estimate for approx $250 ("Correction Remote Education" and "Correction General Diagnosis").

Should this be covered under warranty? The appt is next week.

Is there any chance rodents have gotten into your car? We had this problem on a Model S a couple months back. Rodents had chewed through some of the wiring. The car was out of warranty and Tesla only charged $310 to diagnose the issue and fix the wiring.

The amount they sent you is an estimate. If you’re in warranty period you won’t get charged. If they find non-warranty damage (like rodent damage as noted by @MorrisonHiker ) you’ll be charged.

Got it, unlikely in my case
