My current Model S MCU was replaced on 4/6/20. When I asked Tesla for a copy of my invoice (which was no longer available on the app or the website) to apply for the recall reimbursement I was told the MCU, not the daughterboard, was the problem. After two visits from Tesla Rangers to determine my problem, I just noticed that my invoice says
Concern: Customer requests: MCU based on SV0026EA1A
So I am the owner of MCU,MDLX,NA PREMIUM(REMAN(1098010-00-G) for $1,300.
When I contacted Tesla, with difficulty, via Customer Service email, I found the back and forth to be very slow and thoroughly unsatisfactory and even caught myself saying they were being petty and although I'd recommended Teslas with no reservation for years, I wouldn't from here on (paraphrasing myself--I promise I didn't swear). The Tier 2 Specialist sent me Kind Regards with this:
So, having received another mailed Recall letter the beginning of this week, I am very tempted to complain to NHTSA. I do not know that I needed the whole MCU--How was I to judge? And a remanufactured one seems odd. I wonder whether more than the daughter board subject to the Recall was changed? I'll never know. Kit
