2019 Tesla Model S Technical Service Bulletins

66 technical service bulletins (TSBs) are on record for the 2019 Tesla Model S. TSBs are notes manufacturers send to dealers about repair procedures for issues seen in the field. They are not recalls and do not by themselves mean a vehicle has a fault.

• 10247391Oct 15, 2023Equipment. Tesla does not provide physical owner's manual copies. Instead, all available owner?s manual content is integrated into the vehicle software, and only the content relevant for a given vehicle, based on vehicle configuration and software version installed, is displayed on its touchscreen.
• 10240948Jun 9, 2023Equipment. Tesla does not provide physical owner's manual copies. Instead, all available owner?s manual content is integrated into the vehicle software, and only the content relevant for a given vehicle, based on vehicle configuration and software version installed, is displayed on its touchscreen.
• 10238119May 22, 2023Equipment. Tesla does not provide physical owner's manual copies. Instead, all available owner?s manual content is integrated into the vehicle software, and only the content relevant for a given vehicle, based on vehicle configuration and software version installed, is displayed on its touchscreen.
• 10212803Dec 10, 2021Transmission and drivetrain. Some versions of Model S and X front drive unit halfshafts might cause excessive vibrations during hard acceleration at higher ride height settings. This is exclusively an NVH issue and does not otherwise affect steering functionality, braking, or acceleration.
• 10208328Dec 10, 2021Steering. Some versions of Model S and X front drive unit halfshafts might cause excessive vibrations during hard acceleration at higher ride height settings. This is exclusively an NVH issue and does not otherwise affect steering functionality, braking, or acceleration.
• 10203323Sep 21, 2021Steering. Some versions of Model S and X front drive unit halfshafts might cause excessive vibrations during hard acceleration at higher ride height settings. This is exclusively an NVH issue and does not otherwise affect steering functionality, braking, or acceleration.
• 10189009Feb 4, 2021Body and structure. The grounding path conductivity for some Model Y front body controller modules might cause the vehicle touchscreen to display an erroneous ?Hood latch sensor requires service? message. This condition will not affect any functions of the frunk latch.
• 10178416Jul 24, 2020Suspension. Some Model S and Model X vehicles might have front stabilizer bars with improperly vulcanized bushings that make a squeak noise when driving over road imperfections.
• 10177030Jun 17, 2020Steering. Some Model S and Model X vehicles might exhibit stiff steering due to corrosion at the lower steering column I-shaft U-joint.
• 10173429Mar 17, 2020Equipment, Visibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors), Lane departure, Body and…. On some Model S, Model X, and Model 3 vehicles, condensation might build up inside of the B-pillar applique, potentially obscuring the B-pillar camera. This condition might cause some Autopilot features to be temporarily unavailable until the condensation goes away, such as Auto Lane Change, Blind Spot Detection, and Lane Departure Warning.
• 10172381Feb 11, 2020Electrical system, Equipment. Certain Model 3, Model S, and Model X vehicles were equipped with 2nd generation Universal Mobile Connector (UMC) inline units having a proximity circuit resistor that is out of specification. This resistor within the affected UMC inline unit might prevent charging, might interrupt charging while in progress, and might affect the functionality of the UMC charge handle button when disconnecting the charge handle…
• 10171176Jan 2, 2020Equipment, Electrical system. When some Autopilot HW2 and HW2.5 Model S, Model X, and Model 3 vehicles are near airport ASR-9 radar antennae, the vehicle cameras might be affected by electromagnetic interference, and Autopilot/camera alerts might be displayed.
• 10169816Dec 10, 2019Wheels, Equipment. Older versions of the Model S and Model X LH front drive unit clevis mount contain a bushing that allows the front drive unit to move side-to-side more than expected during hard accelerations, resulting in excessive vibrations coming from the front drive unit during hard acceleration. This is exclusively an NVH issue and does not otherwise affect steering functionality, braking, or acceleration.
• 10163735Jul 12, 2019Electrical system, Equipment. On certain Model S and Model X vehicles, the 2nd generation High Voltage (HV) harness between the Front Junction Box (FJB) and the front drive unit might become disconnected, which could prompt a driver alert to bring the vehicle to a safe stop, advise the driver of limited acceleration, or prevent the driver from operating the vehicle upon startup. This condition does not affect steering or braking.
• 10162295Jun 25, 2019Transmission and drivetrain. Older versions of the Model S and Model X LH front drive unit clevis mount contain a bushing that allows the front drive unit to move side-to-side more than expected during hard accelerations, resulting in excessive vibrations coming from the front drive unit during hard acceleration. This is exclusively an NVH issue and does not otherwise affect steering functionality, braking, or acceleration.
• 10161158May 28, 2019Equipment. During hard acceleration, the driver might notice vibrations coming from the front of some Model S or Model X vehicles.
