PCS failure rates by year...is it just a matter of time?

[CyberTrk]

I just started noticing the slow charging at home, made an appointment.
I can still charge but they got the new PCS on order for me 45,000 miles.

I wonder what would be the situation in Canada regarding this PCS failure...

2025 serial 58xxx
20,800 miles
99% of my charging is at home at 30A
PCS issue started this weekend 5/30 w home charging limited to 24A
Service ticket filed. “Don’t call us we’ll call you. No ETA”

Do we both have PCS2 part 1777777-12-E?

Mine is starting to fail at 20,786 miles. I got complimentary supercharging until Tesla gets the part in.

I hope mine fails before i hit the warranty, if it doesn't I will pay for the extended warranty

there is no offered extended warranty available for cybers. Just put back about 1k and you should be ready for the bill.

Importantly, none are old enough to have it. It has never shown up in any of my older tesla vehicles (2020 MY, 2021 M3P) until they were close (about nine months) to the end of the main warranty. I wouldn’t read too much into it, at this point.

Then again, some have exceeded the mileage, but I’ve never done that on any of my Teslas.

This is the error I saw in the service alerts. PCS2_a051 unable to charge and they were able to do remote diagnostics to confirm the PCS needs to be replaced.

Did Tesla give you complimentary free supercharging after you had them remote diagnose your truck with this pcs2_a051 code?

I just got a PCS2_a051_bmsMia error. Doesn't seem to be affecting my charging, but I reached out to service just in case since my warranty is ending soon. I figured they would just say it's was a software glitch, but they wanted me to schedule to bring it in. So I might be getting my PCS2 replaced. VIN 14XX.

oh nice.
Did they offer u free supercharging?
Then told me that I didn’t qualify for the complimentary supercharging since my PCS isn’t actively failing at this time.
I have the same pcs2_a051 code as u.
I hope they still replace my PCS once the parts are available and in stock

Yes. Taking it into service in a few weeks from now.

 

[Steel Mamba]

Yes. Taking it into service in a few weeks from now.

Lucky. They didn’t wanna give me free supercharging yet.

That means your AC charging still works though

Yes you correct.
Just kinda sucks cuz I feel like it’ll fail anytime now lol. I’m constantly checking my alerts routinely.
Not that I want it to fail, but I’d rather do it now while under warranty.
And also free supercharging during these summer months would be great traveling purposes

No free supercharging, still charges at home at full speed.

For me, it's getting the PCS2 replaced before the warranty is up. I am also lucky if the home charging fails; I am about a 1-mile away from a supercharger.
