    Has anyone else experienced their turn signals simply not working? Had the LR a couple months and last week started having problems with the turn signals simply not working. Unable to signal anything for a minute or so then they go back to normal operation. A couple times I signaled a lane change and couldn't turn the signal off without making a turn. Has anyone else had this issue?

    Not specifically what you describe but I've had them fail to work entirely until I did the 2 button reset. I also have an issue where the soft "left" turn indicator (lane change where it blinks a few times and turns itself off) doesn't work at all and I have to do a hard signal and then do it again to turn it off. "Right" doesn't do this ever.

    yep, just noticed it recently. The left turn will go off by itself, no rhyme or reason either. I'm first in line and it will go off, I'm inching forward behind someone else turning left it will turn off before making the turn. Next time it will work perfectly.

    turn signals are worst feature in our car. Why Tesla couldnt just copy it from other companies? It is safety issue too
