For those that have seen my posts our MCU1 in our 2015 Model S died a few weeks ago. Have an appointment to replace it next week with a brand new MCU 1.5. Way past warranty coverage and the cost of the new MCU 1.5 is the same as the MCU2, $2500. Since we're shelter in place due to COVID-19 we're ok with one car for the next few weeks at least if not longer. Our Model S is still capable of being driven and capable of charging and holding a charge plugged in inside our garage.
Wondering if I should just cancel our appointment for next week and hold out hope that Tesla will begin installing the MCU2 in cars with MCU1 AP sometime in April. Since our Model S can still charge and is not being driven is there any danger of the car getting worse and becoming completely inoperable? If I'm going to spend $2500 rather get an MCU2. Wife primarily drives the S and is ok with losing fm/am/xm radio.
Thoughts on holding out?
