For a few weeks now, a software update has been causing Tesla has been causing trouble among drivers. Error messages in the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) particularly unsettled owners of Tesla Model 3 and Tesla Model Y. But now the all-clear has finally been given: With the new update 2024.44.x has Tesla fixed the problem and the sensors are working properly again.

What was the problem?
After installing the update 2024.38.4+ many Tesla-drivers experienced error messages indicating problems with the BLE tire pressure sensors indicated. The error code "VCSEC_a222" was frequently reported. This affected both the original Tesla-sensors as well as aftermarket models.

Background to the problem:
Tesla had the reporting interval of the sensors increased. The tire pressure sensors now had to transmit the current pressure more frequently. If this was not fulfilled on time, the software triggered an error message, even though the sensors were working perfectly from a technical point of view.

The solution: Update 2024.44.x
With the published update 2024.44.x has Tesla fixed the problem on the software side. User reports from the TFF forum confirm that the tire pressure sensors are now working normally again. It is therefore no longer necessary to remove or replace the sensors.

Ive had this code pop up a few times and then the vehicle may not restart, the first time this happened the vehicle did indeed not restart and they replaced the rear drive unit because they said coolant leaked through the motor some how, this was replaced under warranty, this same warning has now happened again along with reduced power, so i had it towed in there again and now this is what they are saying , there quote is $1470 for a guess, this dosnt sound fair.any ideas?

answer list:

My advice; keep checking the app for sooner appointments. I had this fixed today in my 16 X, was shocked that my original appointment was over two weeks out, kept looking for reschedules and found one for today (9 days wait) and they replaced the HV cooling system in about 7 hours.

Good luck OP.

The PTC heater is also part of the battery and car's thermal management system. Just like when the chiller goes down for cooling, the PTC I assume could throw a critical error. I am still learning though.

I would really appreciate some help

About 5 hours ago I bought my very first use 2022 model y performance in Northern Virginia and I Live in Central North Carolina after a lot of back and forth at the dealership I ended up leaving the dealership around 7:00 p.m. with a car only having 18% battery. So I stopped around the corner at a Tesla Supercharger and went on my way with about an hour left in the drive I needed to stop again and when I pulled up to the supercharger it said that I had an unpaid with them I went in the app I put in all my information updated all my billing information but it would not let me charge so after calling the toll free number lady informed me that I need the transfer of ownership to me however that department is closed till Monday the dealership was nice enough to give me one of the plug-in Chargers and after purchasing a room at a hotel they said I can charge it.

Here's where I need the advice

1 I have 6% battery and it's plugged into a regular outlet outside with the weather is about 20° how much charge do you think I will get in 10 hours?

2 since I can't use the superchargers will I be able to use the other type of chargers like the kind that some random gas stations? Do I need an adapter? Will that work without a profile?

3 do you think that charge will get me 36 miles to the next destination charger?

I'm sitting in a hotel room wondering my best next steps to get home and not stuck on the side of the road.

Just curious why they only show two color options ( black and silver) in Taiwan if they ship them from the factories in USA to Taiwan China? Presumably the USA will have more color options, even for the launch edition.

Yet another buy vs lease post. However, I just noticed that Tesla now allows buyout of the leased vehicle at the end of the lease period. For Model Y, lease payments (299/mo) + final buyout works out to be less than the cash purchase price. Am I missing something very obvious? Leasing seems like a no-brainer..
