Early 2016 90D with 53k miles...
Woke up this morning, checked how hot it is outside by turning on and off the climate control on my car.
Weirdly, it turned it on but then refused to turn it off. Hm. Go out to the car and the app won't unlock the doors either, but will open and close rear trunk/hatch.
Get in and scroll wheel reboot.... nothing. Try the "buttons over the scroll wheel" and it reboots the IC and the main screen. Car drives and works fine. Curious.
Couple hours later need the car for another short trip... and screen is dead again. I can turn on and off AC with the app, though.
I drive the car home and watch in the rear lights using my nest and ... the signal lights are absolutely not working. I'm thinking of going to go get it inspected just to fail the inspection for impartial evidence that a dead MCU indeed kills the signals.
Now AC is going even though I just got out of the car and the app won't turn it off, meaning it'll probably wipe out the battery overnight.
I got the car "NotCPO" from tesla a year ago so it's got 3 more years of the bumper to bummer warranty so I'll be made whole except for the unpleasant drive and possibly being stranded if supercharging doesn't work. I wonder if they'll have a loaner for me or if I'll just wait at the service center. I think I'll bring my 2 kids to just have them fight with each other while we wait in the waiting room at the service center.
Oh, and I'm about to go on a trip tomorrow. Fun times.
