I have an October 2021 M3. Sometime in early-mid 2022 my vehicle stopped recording events despite saying it had.
*This is not the "x" in the camera icon problem, and while we appreciate your input, I see that problem hijacking the few threads with this problem*
I've been chasing Tesla for year to address this. I have a work car, so my M3 only gets driven on weekends. At first, I noticed it would record for three days, then two, one, and now it cuts out in as short of an hour.
After a year of ghosting and screaming matches with the Rocklin service center, I finally got them to admit there was an issue. They told me; that the atom processor has limitations and they make no guarantees of how long Sentry will record. The problem is the autopilot computer to sleep when it shouldn't. A security system that shuts off in an hour!!!!!!! And the autopilot computer is independent of the Atom controlled computer. As many of us know, Tesla service sucks, and I think with me they've sunk lower.
I've noticed a few other errors as well after learning to get into service mode. I believe they are very related. Mostly VCLeft, VCRight, and VCSec communication issues with the main CPU. I've also noticed one error telling me my collision avoidance system was offline....but did not alert me on the driver facing errors. I called Tesla out on this and I've been ghosted for about a month now. Driving around with no collision avoidance and no notification about it.
I've made it to the top person at the Service Center, a man named Chris. I've dealt with the two managers of the service center, Brandi and Justin. They all seemed like they were going to help until they ghosted because I refused to accept a faulty security system under warranty. Resolutions@ refuse to respond. I've tried Twitter but with 4 posts (all about this) and zero followers, not much happens.
I've asked for a new car. Ghosted. I've asked to just try changing the computer. Ghosted.
Who else is dealing with this issue? Anyone get an answer that isn't a giant middle finger? Anyone know how to get to service management above the location level? Calling doesn't work; I just have to wait a month to get a call from Rocklin management again, the very people who ghost.
I love the car so much but this has completely ruined the experience. Every repair, every problem, turns into a screaming match...its the only way they do anything.
*I will admit it was quite satisfying telling every customer, new and old, this story today when I walked in for battle round 112.
