‘safety restraint system issue’ error pops up when ever car is turned on was told that can cause airbag to not be deployed when needed.
System warning for the rear left safety restraint. Took it into Tesla and they charged me.
The horn on the steering wheel stopped working recently. Horns are important safety features on any vehicle, and electric vehicles are especially quiet so the horn is essential. The other buttons and scrollers on the steering wheel also stopped working. It's unclear if the airbag still functions.
I have encountered what seems to be a very common issue in 2018ish Tesla vehicles. Seatbelt sensor issues. While I believe it is due to wiring below the seat, Tesla claims the only fix is an entire seat replacement. Researching this it seems to be a widespread issue, especially as the cars age.
May 21, 2021 air bag had to be replaced, horn did not function as well as other components of the unit on the steering wheel. I am now dealing with the same issue again and the air bag and horn again are not work less than a year later after replacement. I will be getting it serviced again.
