Stranded again. Lucky I have a sense of Humour

Hi all. We are stuck in Cle Elum Washington. Stayed over night at Timber Lodge and got an early start at 630 to get over Snoqualmie pass. Got on HWY 90 and passed about 100 transport trucks on the side of the road. Stopped for coffee and found out pass is closed. Not sure when it would open. Went back to Motel and waited. Found another route by HWY 2. Went out to car and got a message that Regenerative braking disabled, Traction control disabled, Automatic Emergency braking disabled, and then car needs service message. Tried soft reboot and no go. Called Tesla and with them on line did hard reboot, no go. Tried one more time and let car sit for about 20 min and still no go. Service said tow truck would be here in 55 min. to tow us. Got a call back 10 min later to say all roads closed to us and not sure when they could get here. LOL Sitting in motel room now waiting for call. Been an interesting trip. Would I do it again is still up in the air but not leaning to the good side. Hopefully we make it to Nanaimo BC before Feb. LOL
 
I once got all those messages and the car still drove. After a while they went away. Seems like you're not going anywhere regardless!

Gotta say, I'd always fly cross-country this time of year - any other travel over that distance in winter is always going to have issues, EV or ICE. I guess it's lucky you have the time to do it but I'd suggest a summer run next time!
 
Couple months ago I had a dimiasi thing happen and ad I drove more systems failed but I was able to drive to a service center.
In that case it was TPMS module failure that jambed up canbus communication disabling everything. By the time I got to the service center I tried to back into a parking spot and it went into neutral and that was it. Could not even get Park had to check the wheels.
 
I niçought my Roadster home the opposite way, there was a reason I did it when I did. I had a great trip from Anacortes and I didn’t have the benefit of a supercharger, but I never had any issues. If you get to Suncadia you at least have a casino there.
