Incident Tesla Model S was up to date on recalls as far as we can tell, including the recent autopilot update via Tesla internet vehicle update releases. While driving in autopilot mode on the freeway in the lane next to the HOV lane, the autopilot got confused as to which lane it should keep and failed to maintain its lane. Incident vehicle drifted across the double lines into the HOV lane, where another Tesla Model S was driving.
2 weeks ago I was driving down the freeway at night. My infotainment unit turned black, I lost: 1.. Auto pilot 2. HVAC 3. Exterior lights 4. Radio 5. Maps, blinkers when I contacted tesla, they said nothing was wrong with my car. We could have easily got into an accident losing these vital things. How do you get tesla to fix this and what is the right fix?
