Three problems related to wiper have been reported for the 2018 Tesla Model X. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Tesla wiper stopped working during drive, rendering it impossible to view the outside. I had to pull over on the side of the road and shut the car down. After rebooting the car, the driver side wipers came back functional, the passenger side is non operable. This happened while driving, while there was moderate amount of rainfall - thereby creating a totally unsafe condition for myself and other people on the freeway. When I contacted Tesla for service, they have given me an appointment 1 month from today to rectify the problem - this is needless to say unacceptable and the expectation that I continue to drive a vehicle without functional wipers goes against current fmvss regulations that I am aware of.
Hello, I thought it would be best to send my latest service note about my car. Tesla continues to avoid fixing or addressing the problem. We are not sure where else to turn and see so many other complaints about this online. I finally decided it was time to reach out to you. Thank you in advance for any assistance or guidance you can provide. ' hi there are no time stamps, as it has for the past 6 months, the screen is perpetually slow. I assume it is in the records, we have reached out to service many times. We've had the screen replaced, we've cleared out the memory, gone through reboots and we still have issues. We can rarely get to our reverse camera in a timely manner, and all features accessible via the touchscreen are unusable. Our vehicle is no longer safe to drive. We've recently gone online and recognize that we are having the exact same issue as other vehicles. We've gone from the biggest Tesla fan and turned out 50+ people to the vehicle, to have lost faith in the brand. Especially with the safety issues this is causing us. We have gone through months or troubleshooting and repairs and it is still not resolved. What do you suggest for our path forward? how do we get this in front of Tesla's leadership team?' lee schor.
Central console screen stopped working for a few minutes. During this time frame, there is no way to open the rear doors of the vehicle. The only recommended option from the manufacturer is to remove the speakers on the rear door panel and then pull on emergency release. There is no way a passenger can remove the speakers without tools. This can lead to a safety issue, were the rear passengers have no mechanical way to open the door to escape the vehicle. Similarly when the screen is not responsive, there is no way to activate the rear defogger or defog the front windscreen. This situation drastically reduces visibility and can lead to an unsafe condition on the road. When the front display is blank; the driver gets no positive feedback whether a turn signal has been engaged - no visual indication or audible clicking noise. When this happens the driver is unable to change lanes safely; not knowing whether blinkers are on or off. When these conditions happen vehicle was in motion in both freeway driving conditions.
