In owners' own words
The PCS module failed in the vehicle, not allowing me to charge the vehicle at home. I can still use it at Superchargers, but the AC charging at my house no longer works and the power share function of the truck also no longer works. There seems to be a widespread issue as in all the forms in groups. Iâm in thousands of people have had this problem recently with no rhyme or reason to year make model or miles Electrical system
While driving vehicle a prompt flashed on the screen saying âpower reduced, steering performance reduced due to overheatingâ. Then the next screen said âcritical steering issue detected pull overâ. Then I got a loss of system redundancy detected. This has happened twice in one week and Iâve towed it to Tesla twice. Electrical system
PCS component in my car has degraded, I could charge at 36A earlier but now the charger only charges at 24A. This is line with large number of PCS failures reported by other users and their failed components being replaced by Tesla. However they returned mine saying they could not replicate it!
