Engine complaints
My vehicle is experiencing wire issues resulting in error messages such as "power reduced, front motor disabled, etc" that disable safety features such as the turning signals and issues with braking and steering. The vehicle will power off/shut down while driving and restart. The car is currently in service for the past 2 weeks and other than notifying me that there are "wire issues," tesla has been unable to diagnose the cause of the problem or fix it.
