Is it standard operating procedure for a Tesla with an AC issue to have a diagnostic check that lasts more than 24 hours at the service station?
After my Tesla had sat in the hot sun all day at work, I began to drive home when an alert noted that the AC was not working and that service was required. The AC did begin working again later that evening, but after calling Tesla's national service phone number and reviewing discussions online, it was recommended that I take the car in for a diagnostic review as this issue can be intermittent and potentially significant.
I scheduled a 10:00 a.m. appointment, but upon arrival, they were not able to offer a loaner car. I waited for nearly four hours only to be told they were extremely busy and that they now had a loaner car. They would alert me once they had an update, essentially telling me to go home and that they would let me know more tomorrow.
Fast-forward 24 hours.... the app remains unchanged, noting "Preparing" when reviewing the "Repair Progress" section.
When I inquired about a status update, I was told that running diagnostics takes a while and that I must be patient.
Thank you for any insight!
