Incidents in which the Tesla Model 3 stops charging are becoming more frequent. You can hardly get more clumsy with an electric vehicle. If you are also affected, this article will tell you exactly what to do.
Das Problem
The problem often manifests itself in that the Tesla stops charging at a certain battery level, even though it is not yet full, or that it does not start charging at all.
Lösungsvorschläge
The first approach here should be to reset the vehicle to ensure that it is not just the charging management system that has hung up. We have described how this works here . However, it is very likely that this problem is due to damage to the battery pack.
If the reset has no effect, there is no way around a service appointment. Means: Make an appointment at the service center in the Tesla app and make sure that you can get there with the remaining battery charge.
In an emergency, the tow hook and warning triangle should be ready and the towing mode activated. As the repair takes a relatively long time (often several weeks), Tesla usually provides a rental car during the warranty period.
Once charging is working again, you can at least prevent problems caused by dirt with a charging socket cover.
