Wiper problems of the 2016 Tesla Model X

The car door propped open as I was driving the vehicle. There have been multiple repeated concerns that I have had with this vehicle. It is unsafe.

My 2016 Tesla Model X's mcu is often freezing, restarting, or going completely black while driving and while parked. When this happens, I'm unable to access any of the features of the car but more importantly, the rearview camera does not work when the mcu is having an issue. With the small rear window, I cannot see any children or people behind my vehicle. Reversing with no rear view camera is dangerous. I'm also unable to turn on the fog lights when needed. I've brought it into Tesla twice already and each time, they have said that they cleared the memory and disconnected the battery for a moment and reconnected. This has not fixed the issue. Just today, the mcu screen and my icc screen shut down for a few minutes without any notice. I recorded the incident. I've spoken to other owners and it seems to be a common issue.

Rear view camera is too dark in low light conditions (particularly night time). Only occurs on cars with updated infotainment systems (referred to as "mcu2"). Image is very hard to make out, exhibiting high levels of black crush, making it very unsafe when parking or driving.

On a weekly basis, my center console that has controls for lights, defrosters, a/c will freeze and go blank for an approximate 2 minute reboot. This is while driving the vehicle. The ability to adjust the windshield front and rear, are inaccessible at this time. This will happen in motion whether on a city street or highway.

The main computer screen stops working which causes the hvac defroster and other controlling units of the car to stop working while in drive.

Touch screen stayed off for more than 30 minuets on a 2 hour freeway drive with no control of the vehicles defroster, climate, navigation or audio controls. Touch screen does not always respond and glitches. Rear view camera does not always respond nor works immediately when in reverse and goes all black. Defrost would not work on freeway multiple times due to black non responsive screen. Rear driver seat sequels/squeaks a lot when sat in. Car often takes a minute or longer for the dashboard and touchscreen to turn on. Battery does not hold correlating charge to miles driven. Loud whirling/grinding when accelerating. . .

The center display and sometimes even the main display black out during driving. Most times the system requires a reboot which can take a few minutes. During the time where the screen are not visible you have no control over headlights or the ability to defrost the windshield. In addition the camera which is displayed while driving is also unavailable. If the center screen goes black then you can't see how fast your going or if your park, drive or reverse.

Ever since I bought my 2016 Tesla Model X I have been having problems with the mcu (main screen) it keeps freezing up, it won't respond to my touch commands, I can not change the suspension settings, driving settings, climate control, disabling pin and everything that is related to the screen which is basically all functions of the vehicle. My Tesla is under full factory warranty and I have taken it to service for the same problem along with some other issues 4 or 5 times, every time Tesla service center tells me that the screen problem is a known issue and engineers are working on a software fix for it. I have never been able to fully get a use out of all features due to this problem. Tesla has not been able to give me a timeframe on when they are going to send the update to fix the issue with the screen. Meanwhile me and my family are at the risk of not being able to start and drive the vehicle if screen is frozen and we would have to reset the system which usually takes several minutes. Backup camera doesn't show the picture, screen gets distorted. I noticed uneven tire wear which I was told by Tesla that it was due to suspension settings and I was driving it in low mode. I can't change the settings due to screen not functioning. I have given Tesla several opportunities to fix the issue and they failed. My last service they wanted to charge me around $1700 (50% off) to relapse the screen which should be fully covered under warranty. Problem happens during drive or while stationary.

I went to start my car and the screen was black. My car hasn't been driven for 5 months since I was traveling. I had cleared all of the memory (navigation, addresses, music stations, etc. ), prior to leaving. I was in traffic and the turning signals didn't work. The safety of the car felt compromised since the turning signals, rear backup camera, suspension -basically most of the car controls were in-operatable.

The mcu died, preventing use of the backup camera creating a hazard while backing up with low visibility.

Center screen is black. Ac is not accessible.

While looking through the windshield at any time (while in motion, stationary, day or night), though more pronounced in the evening, lighted images, such a tail lights, street lamps etc have a double or triple affect causing images on the road to appear more blurry. The windshield is the issue as newer models with updated windshield has eliminated this issue.

Viewing through the front windshield creates "double vision" effect most noticeable in the evening with lights, causing for objects to look blurred, creating eye strain and uncomfortable driving. Most notable are taillights and signal lights that appear to multiply.

Windshield causes a double vision issue with objects including other vehicles and barriers, as well as lights including, headlights, tail lights, brake lights, traffic lights, street lamps, and any other lighting. This happens during the day and night. Causes issues with vision and causes headaches while driving. This has been an issue since purchase of the vehicle.

Double and triple ghosting of lights through the windshield. I will see false images of headlights, streetlights, traffic lights, reflections of the sun on cars, etc. These false images float above their source at varying heights as my car approaches the source. In heavy traffic with a lot of lights, it is impossible accurately to discern reality.

The Tesla models x comes with a tinted rear windshield. This is very bad a night, limiting the visibility through the read windshield. Telsa has clear rear windheils for the models sw and e. The Tesla Model X only comes with a tinted rear windshield. No option is available for a clear rear win shield. The NHTSA should compel Tesla too offer/change the rear windshields on the Model X, for this who want a clear rea windshield.
