Older Teslas are reportedly running into charging and screen issues
Tesla owners and repair professionals are reporting that older models of Tesla are bricking due to worn-out flash memory, resulting in the car’s screen to malfunction and issues with charging.
The problem has been widely discussed on YouTube, Twitter, and online message boards in the last six months.
On Saturday,
Tesla CEO Elon Musk tweeted that “[The problem] Should be much better at this point,” – though his tweet did not elaborate on what action Tesla had taken to resolve the problem, if any.
Tesla
did not immediately respond to Business Insider’s request for comment.
In a YouTube video posted in May 2019, a YouTuber and Tesla repair professional called Rich Benoit discussed the problem with another Tesla repair professional, Phil Sadow.
