I drive a model Y which is just under a year old.
I was out on a ski trip today, 150 miles from home with 15% battery remaining and I stopped at a supercharger like I do every few weeks. Never had an issue with superchargers until now. Everything was fine for the first 5% charge, then my car stopped charging ant 20% and I was unable to start supercharging again. My car gives me errors like “Supercharger reports an error” and “Unable to charge” without too much information. Once it also gave an error about the charge port not latching properly even though I checked and it was clearly latched properly, but strangely that message only appeared once throughout this process.
I called Tesla support and they were unable to figure it out on the phone. They didn’t see any diagnostics apart from what I could see myself.
The rep on the phone scheduled me a service appointment but the next service appointment is in 1.5 weeks. Nothing sooner.
I did try a level-2 charge and it worked fine, so this seem to be purely a DC fast charge issue.
Has anybody seen any similar issues? Any more troubleshooting steps for me to try? Or am I just out of luck and unable to go on any more trips that would require a supercharge until after my service appointment weeks from now (Or put up with 8 hour L2 charges, yikes)…

- They told me to clean the charging port and cable but unsurprisingly that didn’t do anything.
- They said to Try a different charging stall which didnt make a difference. I tried 5 different stalls. Everyone else at this supercharger had no issues.
- They said to try a 150 kW supercharger (the initial one was 250 kW) and I had the same issue there.
- I tried rebooting my car, both a soft reboot (holding the scroll wheels) and a “Power Off via Safety menu and wait 2 minutes” reboot and neither did anything.
