I had to coast and maneuver across traffic to avoid being hit before the car came to a stop. After shifting into Park, the vehicle displayed DI_w072 and DI_f072 gate\u2011drive faults, which indicate inverter/drive\u2011unit failure and match a pattern reported by other early\u2011model\u2011year Tesla owners. This sudden loss of motive power created a serious safety hazard, including risk of rear\u2011end collision and exposure to oncoming traffic while disabled. \u2022 No alerts appeared before the failure \u2022 Fault codes appeared only after the vehicle stopped \u2022 Vehicle required towing \u2022 Incident occurred under normal driving conditions \u2022 Tesla has denied responsibility or involvement It was serviced by Tesla a couple days before. During servicing they stated on one side the drive axle was not completely installed upon arrival. They stated they \"popped it in for free but the drive unit will likely need replacement soon.\" Prior to this visit i have had no issues or alerts with these parts or systems, I declined any work to these areas. The next day after receiving my vehicle back, I discovered the coolant reservoir was completely empty. No warning was provided that the coolant system had been left unfilled, and the lack of coolant may have contributed to thermal damage in the drive unit or inverter. They denied any work they did involve these parts and denied any responsibility. They denied my request to have the car towed to their service center and diagnose it unless i paid for it. They also estimated the repair to cost me 6k without any further investigation. I request that NHTSA evaluate whether this failure mode represents a broader defect affecting 2012\u20132015 Model S drive units/inverter electronics and whether further investigation or recall is warranted.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2013","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL S","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]}]}
