Hi, i am wondering if you can help/recommend what to do. labout 5 days ago this warning came up on the screen, so i immedietly raised a service request, and on monday accepted the estimate and booked the car in for this friday No mention from Tesla not to drive, etc. The alert doesnt stay on the screen, it disapears after a while, then pops back up when i go into the car next. The warning itself does not indicate the car shoudlnt be driven, it only states "Schedule Service" which to me is a pre-alarm with the coolant at a certain level, where it should be looked at. especially as it diapears. Reading the manual there is no mention of any such alert, or recommendations. I have been driving the car short distances (about 4-5 miles each trip), however yesterday the warning started alerting more frequently, so i messaged the service team asking if there is a concern driving the vehicle, and they responded with:
"Without inspecting the vehicle we wouldnt be able to advise. If you feel that your vehicle is unsafe to drive, please arange for recovery to the service centre. Thank you."
A very wishwashy not going into any detail where liability coudl be placed on their side. I then responded asking how i would know if its unsafe to drive. are there any further alerts which state "Do not drive" etc as i cannot tell how low the coolant is as its a sealed system. I do not want Tesla to invalidate the warranty should the battery fail when i shouldnt of been driving the vehicle with this alert. Any other car i have had its a lot more detailed into the issue, and generally an amber alert (like this one) is a pre-warning, and a red alert is "Do not drive" etc.
Anyone else had any experiance?
