Repeated climate control issue

[jin512]

Took delivery of my Model Y LR end of April and experienced the dreaded “Cabin climate control system requires service”. I took it into service and they said it came out of the factory without enough coolant fluid. They took it in for urgent service given it was 90+ outside and topped it off and sent me home.

Fast forward a few weeks and I just got the error message again, both times after charging the car. I have to wonder what the issue really is…temperature sensor?! A leak?

You can Wonder, or you can submit a ticket and get it fixed.

Do you know how to pull off the frunk rear cover? It just pops up vertically, with 8 or 9 pins. Careful: the pins that hold the cover on each side to the fender are a bit fragile.

I'd check coolant level before driving again. The coolant is critical to HVAC AND, even more important, cooling the HV battery.

You're not the first person to post about a coolant leak. That would be my guess, if coolant level keeps dropping.

HAHA, I keep editing. The SC should handle your situation ASAP, since the coolant level is critical.

Yep dropped it off and got a loaner. Thanks!

Update: They are replacing the whole HVAC assembly and the part will take a week to get here…I’m seriously thinking about the lemon law if there’s a third repair on this.

Read your Lemon laws for your state. I dare say that there is a LOT more that has to be done before the Lemon Law kicks in.

To clarify: "thumbs up" for getting the HVAC assembly repaired/replaced. I hope you post a detailed invoice of what they're doing. As far as "lemon law," I don't think you're anywhere near qualifying for that yet.

i think you're supposed to top it off, get into service mode and run the coolant bleed procedure and top off until the tank is full. did they bleed the coolant system?
