Pyro Fuse Fuss

Update: after taking my car in for my infotainment upgrade and after denying the pyro fuse service twice they still tried sneaking the replacement on the service visit for $1,200.

Did your contact ever tell you anything?

My MCU2 upgrade was the best sub $2k I've spent on the car. Many advantages for cost of a new computer. However, post installation issues starting with post #8 (my remedy in post #12) here Getting MCU2 upgrade and post slacker issues here Slacker - positive experience

I still think it’s too expensive. My mcu1 still works great and I get fm radio. This might vary for those without lte

The only reason I did this was to “future proof” the car since I have FUSC.

Soon I will sell my Tesla Model Y 2021 and never go to a Tesla service center again.
They can’t remove free supercharging without you selling the car to a dealer. I’m sure they will try at some point though to force mcu2 upgrade on older s owners to “retain” free supercharging
 
I got the “battery fuse requires replacement soon” warning tonight. It is a Jan 22, 2017 build one owner S90d. Our car has about 66,000 miles. I just read all posts in this thread. Next week I need the car to trip with, about 1500 miles.

Is it safe for me to do this traveling in my Tesla without the car conking out on me? or should I drive my Ford F150 Lightning despite the challenges of keeping it charged.

Has anyone gotten this repaired by a Ranger? Sounds like a big expense.

This comes 8 months after my front suspension forelink broke. Tesla didn’t pay the $1700 that repair cost me. Despite over 400 others who had that happen, NHTSA has not ordered a recall on that even though China did do a recall for this same problem for MS cars sold there but made along side my car in CA. I think I am about ready to cancel my low number first week Cybertruck reservation. I get the feeling that as far as Tesla is concerned, the customer is just a mark, ready to be fleeced.

I'd ask your Tesla Service Center (via app for documentation) if ok to drive. If they say OK, liability is on them.
