Below is list of alerts from a "Pull Over Safely Vehicle Shutting Down" incident. Luckily I was able to pull over before it shuddered (maybe brakes) and quit. Not shut down as both screens and ac still on. But no control and drive selection did not work.
I called Tesla road assistance. After about 5 minutes of elevator music they helped me navigate on screen to service->shutdown. After 2 minutes wait I was instructed to press brake peddle. The S came back alive! I drove home ready for another incident.
At home I scheduled an appt in the app and appended picks. It is now documented. Appt scheduled a week out. Then I called, navigating thru several menus I got a service rep. This sort of problem was dangerous and he said I could bring it in as a walk in. I did that. They now have my S with an expectation they'll call by tomorrow evening. They rented a Mercedes GLB 250 but I have to pay for gas!
I am hoping they find something definitive to fix. I can't drive it if they say we couldn't find anything wrong.
