vcfront_a161_compressor error

[reystar]

Well, it seem like that i gotta be extremely unlucky.

The car is 1 month old and worst thing is that SC is 500km away...sad really sad Tesla

Did anyone have the same issue? If so how long did it take for this to be fixed?

Mine is the whole compressor not just a sensor I think

Perhaps you can try the mobile service for this?

It's usually just a sensor, but that was usually just on 2020 and 2021 cars. Hopefully an easy fix. Make a service appt in the app and see if they will do it via mobile service. They can interpret the codes and usually have a good idea of what needs replacement before the car even enters the shop. But, if the nearest shop is 500km away, they probably don't offer mobile service in your area, now that I think about it.

Something similar happened to mine. They sent a flatbed truck to pick it up. That was 480 km from my home. They returned it on the third day. I did have to tell them in the service request that I lived too far from the service center to bring it in.
