38 Hours Back From Service
My Model X, Pensive, has been back from service for just over a day and a half. At 08:22 this morning, I tried to change the charge state, and the app indicated that command had failed. For the next 2.5 hours the app refused to connect, indicating "Vehicle Connection Error" in-between attempts.
At 10:37, I checked-in on the car, and to my surprise the charge state was set as I had told it. I turned-on the climate control, and went back inside, and noticed that the app still couldn't connect. When we left around 10:53, voice navigation was unwilling to be responsive ("Navigate to 123 Some Street" resulted only in a suggestion of things I could say, mockingly starting with "Navigate to…"). Manually entering an address was the first direct indication that the car was off-line, despite having a strong LTE signal.
Thumb reboot. Things worked. Interestingly, after reboot, when the modem was re-initializing, the voice navigation failed in an informative manner; apparently the maps team does better handling of network state than the voice-command team, which hadn't caught the networking issue previously.
When I picked-up my Model X on Thursday, I'd been told that it had been factory reset and then QC checked and operating as expected. I shouldn't need to reset it to fix problems only 36H later; I've not owned a computer this millennium which either expected or required as frequent resets as this car. I had been told that I'd get a phone call (I asked instead for an eMail) explaining the issues with out-going voice not transmitting, although that turns out to be another promised-but-not-kept communication. The speakers sounding like they have a lose wire is still an issue as well.
