Recently, I noticed that my Tesla Model 3 battery was draining quickly whn parked.

With Sentry Mode off, a day of parking drained about 10% of the battery.

Thinking something was wrong, I checked the car's error code alarm and found the code PCS_a022.

This code kept occurring every 1-2 minutes while parked and I realized that it was accelerating the battery drain.

I visited the service center yesterday and asked them to diagnose the error, but they asked me to come back in a week because they need parts labor to do a full diagnosis and replace the PCS and related parts immediately if necessary.

Also, the service center sent the car back to me with an error code of unable to charge, but it actually charges, so I should be able to use it until my next visit next week.

I'm worried that this error code is indicative of a serious component replacement.

Spoke with a handful of Model Y owners who report the same struggles I’ve recently been having with my Model Y.

Anytime it’s cold and rainy, the windshield likes to fog up and get very damp.

Colder days, with more than one passenger or a single passenger and a hot cup of coffee, the windshield will quickly fog up and not defog. Even double tapping the icon for the red setting(max defog) still takes an extremely long time to defog.

I often have to wipe a clear spot with a napkin as it will get so bad I can’t drive. Cabin air filters are new and the condensation air coils was recently cleaned with filters where changed. Windscreen was recently cleaned as well with invisible glass.

My car is out of warranty(>95,000 miles) so I am hesitant to take it for service only to learn it’s a software issue. Since there are others, I think this may be the case.

Seems as if the car isn’t switching to fresh air intake mode even though the indicator is set to fresh.

Who else is having issues with the defog? Please sound off so I know I need to pay for service or wait for the next OTA push.

I’ve always taken my car in drive-through car washes but I’ve seen enough comments on here that make me hesitant to take my new MY in them. If I want to wash it at home, what do I need - what soap, towel, whatever? It’s been years since I’ve washed my own car.

Having trouble starting my car 2017 Model X – only the display works, and I’m seeing these main errors:
1. Error code: DI_u014
• Message: Unable to drive
• Description: Voltage supply too low
2. Error code: GTW_w018
• Message: Electrical system power reduced
• Description: Vehicle may shut down unexpectedly
3. Error code: GTW_w041
• Message: Cabin heating currently unavailable
Any advice on what these errors mean or how to troubleshoot them would be greatly appreciated!

Had my MY for 6 months and just realized my odometer seems off than what it should be. I was driving gas before and my commute is 80km per day, plus personal use, I put 35k on that car. Than I got my Tesla and also switch my job location, which my commute is only 20km per day, personal use should be roughly the same. I have only had my Tesla for 6 month and odometer is showing 19k, which would be 38k for a whole year, in fact that I am driving significantly less everyday. And I saw lots of posts on Reddit with the same issue, but it seems no solution yet. Anyone else experiencing the same problem?
