It is called a product design problem, but they stilled charged me to replace it with a new unit. Because the problem is a known issue that is not just wear and tear it seems to me that Tesla should replace this faulty part without charge. Unfortunately Elon Musk wants to have a lot more billions of dollars in his bank accounts rather than repair problems that are caused by Tesla designed parts that are known to be faulty.
