| Description of the problem | I was driving on the freeway going about 65mph in the hov lane when the accelerator pedal stopped working and a warning light came on the dashboard. I was not able to get over to the shoulder due to not having power and all of the cars on the freeway. I came to a complete stop, powered off the car and then powered it back on again hoping it would work and it did. Power came back to the accelerator pedal and i was able to safely take the car to the dealership. Luckily i didn't create an accident and nobody was hurt. I took my car to the dealership on dec 16 2014 and i just got my car back yesterday january 31st 2015. The dealer replaced the drive unit assembly which they said they were waiting to receive the part from tesla. |
