My apologies in creating a new thread on a topic probably covered numerous times elsewhere. Hunting around, though, I wasn't quite able to get the info I need.
I've had my Model X for just under 3 months now, so I'm definitely still a newbie, but feel like I've learned quite a bit — we Tesla owners are quite an inquisitive lot, and I think that serves us well. Until recently, my ownership has been without hitch or glitch. But that ended about 5 days ago.
Without warning & seemingly without any provocation, my Model X has started doing weird things. Here's what I've observed:
Oh, in case it's relevant, the software is 2018.2.

Without warning & seemingly without any provocation, my Model X has started doing weird things. Here's what I've observed:
- It all started with my GPS location freezing. Is this related to anything? Who knows? But I figured I'd add it here in case it is. I tried a couple or three scroll-wheel resets & turning the car off, but that did nothing. Only after I left the car & let it sit for about 3 hours did the GPS location finally update properly & return to normal. I haven't experienced this sort of behavior before or since this singular occurrence.
- Shortly thereafter, the really unusual behavior started. I haven't quite figured it all out but here's what I'm noticing. I might be getting the sequence of some of this out of order, but hopefully you'll get the idea of what's going on. I get in the car and press the brake to close the door & get the car started. Instead of the usual behavior, the hazard lights start flashing, not for long, but maybe for 5 - 10 seconds.
- The seat may or may not move from the easy-entry profile setting to the proper driving setting. It can go back & forth sometimes too.
- The mirrors are completely out of sync — they seem to stay folded when they should be out & stay out when they should be folded.
- The Homelink garage door auto open and close seems to be messed up. It's worked not perfectly, but pretty reliably until a few days ago. Doesn't auto open at times, which I've never experienced before. And may or may not auto close, which is more likely to occur, but it seems to be less predictable now.
- And, upon exiting the car, the car may not lock as I walk away and the hazard lights may flash for a while again. Notevery time, but sometimes.
- When parked in my garage, the charge port may not respond as expected -- either to a press or to a press on the button on charging connector (sorry, it's late & I'm too lazy to look up what the proper term for that is).
- Also, earlier today, I went out to the garage to only to find the door to the Model X cracked open a few inches. My wife had recently left in our other car. She always carries her key with her in her purse, so this typically triggers the usual wake-up from the Model X as it unlocks & extends the mirrors, and, depending on where she goes, an opening of the driver's door. Apparently, unlike all other times that I'm aware of, the door didn't close when she left, but rather stayed ajar.
