NEW PCS (Power Conversion System) Failure & Replacement News

[cyberHoward]

Is yours a newer model, and it’s had a PCS failure? I noticed yours is called a premium all wheel drive. Mine is called Cybertruck all wheel drive.

sounds like these are dropping like flies hope mine goes while still under warranty! No known issues yet vin 43xxx, 26k miles

Well, I was to have my PCS replaced on 5/4 and they rebooked my appointment for July 6 telling me the equipment is on backorder. They confirmed at minimum my PCS and harness are being replaced and they will give me the details on what version of PCS is installed. The funny part is they have now given me SuperCharging free until 7/20. I wonder what the magic is with that date. I also asked GROK about the issue and whether I will be able to us Supercharging if my entire PCS board goes down. Grok said Tesla is pushing an update to allow for Supercharging without the PCS functioning. Currently, I am still able to us my home charger at 24A. I am of course wanting to go on a 300 mile plus trip, but still concerned the truck will brick and not allow DC charging while I am out of town. I got an update, but it was the latest FSD from what I could tell.

I think they are setting 90 days (3 months?) of free supercharging from the date of first service contact.

Is the new replacement really different and fixing the original issue or it's just the same that will fail again eventually?

It's revision G so it's different, whether the changes are sufficient?

Charging stopped overnight and u got the dreaded error message. I tried to schedule an appointment but they pushed it back until the end of June! I can’t believe they haven’t produced enough of these and stocked their service centers!

Well finally happened to me.
7k VIN AWD

I was hoping to last a few more months until part availability was better. Still charging at 24 amps, but who knows for how much longer. Scheduled service but service team messaged me saying no parts in stock and they would reach out when available.

Been a little disappointed with all the problems, but there's no other option. It's not possible for me to buy a car without FSD anymore, and I'd like something bigger than model Y.
