A few weeks ago, I installed a software update. Since then, I've gotten the "charge port door needs replacing" message. I believe a number of other people have been affected by this.
I called Tesla service, and they were like "It's cool to drive in this state, don't worry about it." But, what I did not realize until just this morning is the door actually will not stay closed. It closes for a moment, and then re-opens. I had a road trip planned, but now I'm thinking that I just don't feel right driving hundreds of miles with this thing open the entire time. Service center says they will not be able to get the part in time. Pretty sure I'm just going to rent something for the trip.
What would you do?
