A Southern California man says the computer on his new Tesla Model 3 froze, causing the vehicle to be stuck at 83 mph while on the freeway.
Javier Rodriguez of Irvine spoke with Eyewitness News on Tuesday and said it happened last Thursday while he was heading westbound on the 10 Freeway through Cabazon.He said all of the buttons and switches - including turn signals and hazard lights - were not working.
Even though the accelerator wasn't responding, fortunately Rodriguez said the brakes did work, but said that didn't make him any more comfortable when he was trying to stop. An officer with the California Highway Patrol helped Rodriguez get off the freeway, where he eventually had the car towed.
