Car is 4 months old, 5000 miles. I was driving home Tuesday evening just cruising about 30 mphs when suddenly I got a message that the emergency brakes were disabled. Within 10 seconds a barrage of warnings came on. I noticed my power steering went out but the air condition was still good. I called Telsa Roadside service and continued to drive slowly (about 40 mph to home which was about 4 miles away). At home they first tried the screen reboot and then turned the car off and back on. When the car came back on the P R N D lights were red and the list of errors came up. The car was unable to drive at all. Tesla picked up the car within an hour or so and took it to the service center. It has remained there. Has anyone had something like this happen? I am a bit concerned because I bought this car thinking it would be a good road trip car (safe, big and comfy) but now I am having second thoughts about the reliability with three young kids as passengers. Also, I am a bit concerned that the car is being opened up in they are looking for shorts. Should it concern me when the car is taken apart to try to fix it. I have always assumed (maybe falsely) that the assembly at the factory is best and now to have your car unscrewed and screwed back together again.
Service center is being very good to us and working hard to fix it! I don't blame them at all.
