P85D, and I have it happen twice already. First time happened two days ago, then again today.
What happened was:
1) I have the car set to creep mode on - has been like this after taking delivery (about a month now)
2) Get into the car, the dashboard took a few seconds to wake up, foot on brake (now, I do not remember if I stepped on the brake before the dashboard is fully up or not), then flipped to REVERSE
3) The car is in reverse, and started moving backward (as creep is on). My foot is still on the brake, but the brake does not work at all. I can not press it down at all
4) in the moment of panic, I tried to flip the stalk to Neutral, and the brake worked (my foot was still pressing really hard on it), and car stopped.
First time it happened, it took me a few seconds to realize what was happening and react, and exact sequence was a little fuzzy.
Today, I immediately reacted to flip upward the stalk, and I am sure it showed Reverse mode when the car stopped (but it went through the Neutral position when you flip up)
I just called Tesla and described all these to them, and they will call me back.
Anyone else experienced this? Is it because of timing or what?
Also a heads up - it could be extremely dangerous -- I was very fortunate that both times nothing behind me...
Thank you!
