You all love troubleshooting computer problems right? Well, we replaced everything in your car with computers so you can always be troubleshooting! Yay capitalism!

[–] blurryface@lemm.ee 3 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

Well, if computers worked as well as this shit you wouldn’t be using it to work tomorrow with billions other people.

Computerizing cars isn’t a bad idea in itself. Fuel injection, ABS, airbags and so mamy more features that make todays cars so much safer and less polluting all use computers to function. It’s just we live in an enshittification era.

Screens aren't a bad idea either. Displaying diagnostic values or at least error messages is always preferred to just an LED or code on the odometer. Not everyone has OBD readers.

Touchscreens, though? GTFO.

[–] OmegaMan@lemmings.world 30 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

21 miles and screen absolutely covered in dust. These things must be sitting for ages and not selling. Not even a wipe down from the Tesla store.

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago

Why clean it when they will buy it either way. Might even think its cool how "rugged" it looks.

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 14 points 8 hours ago

Oh well, it sucks to be you, a Muskrat dick-sucker.

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 30 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

That screen is awfully dusty for a car you bought 10 minutes ago

[–] Peter_Arbeitsloser@feddit.org 23 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Well, it still does have a protective foil on it and very few finger traces in the dust.

[–] kyle@lemm.ee 15 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (2 children)

Still, the bottom corner of the film is peeling. Could have been sitting on a lot for a long time, but peeling like that after only a few test drives at most?

Edit: I ended up digging into his Twitter page and everything is legit. And I'm baffled.

Selfie: Selfie

SMS conversation with Tesla support (LOL): tech support convo

Dropping it off: dropping off at service

"Your concern is closed."

Ahaha the garbage customer service they sell these days.

[–] Peter_Arbeitsloser@feddit.org 5 points 4 hours ago

Ahahaha, oh wow, that tech support exchange.

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 20 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

I'd expect the dealership to give it a quick detail before letting the customer drive away, even used car dealerships do that. But I guess when we're talking about Tesla all bets are off.

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago

You can't detail a car in 15 minutes. Most places just vacuum and run a cloth around the dash. My guess is the Tesla dealer only does that if you ask or demand it, considering they love to cut corners.

[–] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 hours ago

Haha. Yeah probably not. Look at what they aren't paying for when making these now.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I don't think Tesla dealers work on commission (basing this entirely off the comment of a rando on this site without verification), so that would help explain it.

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

You'd think the dealership would step in though. If I bought a $100k vehicle I'd be beyond livid if it was delivered in that condition. The fact that it's also broken is just a cherry on top

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago

But you'd never buy a cyber truck for 100k. Maybe not even for a tenth that. These have to be somewhat impulsive people right? The more you research on a Tesla the worse it gets.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Oops, did they accidentally do the remote self-destruction on a vehicle that was already sold?

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 6 points 7 hours ago

How the hell should I know?

[–] Evotech@lemmy.world 28 points 12 hours ago

I love that people think @elonmusk is a valid technical support approach

[–] Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 6 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Cabin climate control system requires service.

Am I reading that right? Do you need a connection to an external service to turn on the air conditioning?

[–] j0hax@feddit.org 37 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

I would definitely interpret that as in "needs to be serviced at a garage/dealer."

I know it’s fun to hate on the CyberTruck (absolutely has deserved it), but I’d bet money on this being a 12v battery issue, maybe from improper storage? Only reason I say this is that I have a Kia Soul EV and it gave me pretty much the exact same warning the other day and refused to start. Turned out the 12v battery was dead and that causes all kinds of weird stuff to happen to the electrical systems in the car. Especially considering that the entire electrical system of the CT is consolidated into one wiring harness.

Also, knowing Tesla, attempting to jump the 12v would probably void a warranty.

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 3 points 7 hours ago

With modern cars having so many sensors, a dying battery can cause all sorts of weird, seemingly random issues. I have no idea it's the problem here but it's usually one of the first things I check when an issue isn't obvious. Just because the battery starts the car (or does whatever it does in evs) doesn't mean that the sensors, relays, and servos are getting the juice they need to operate correctly.

[–] ragingdachshund@lemm.ee 21 points 14 hours ago

You just need to seig heil harder, bro

[–] PanArab@lemm.ee 12 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

It is definitely a computer. Things just stop working for no obvious reason sometimes.

[–] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 9 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

[–] genuineparts@infosec.pub 17 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (5 children)

Literally says on the screen "Exiting and Reentering vehicle might restore operation." I hate the future.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 8 hours ago

For fuck sake

[–] despicable 3 points 8 hours ago

Lmao you HAVE TO exit and reenter the car to restart it? This is hilarious on so many levels.

He...he can't help you. He's the nepo baby of people who owned blood mines. He doesn't actually know anything useful. Or care about you.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 5 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

He's also the grandson of a man who tried to overthrow democracy in Canada and was forced to flea.

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago

Why would they make him go to a red hot chili peppers concert for trying to overthrow democracy in Canada?

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 15 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (1 children)

Mentioning this on Twitter might bring it to his attention and since this is bad PR, he might expedite the complaint so that it gets fixed sooner. That's probably the thinking here. I've seen it happen with companies before

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 1 points 5 hours ago

More accurately, he'd ban you outright for daring to "lie" about his products having flaws

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 92 points 23 hours ago (13 children)

Lmao, imagine a car not working because of a software bug. That's just pathetic.

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago

I'd be shocked if anyone who works in IT would buy one. Already full up on troubleshooting.
