The owner of a new Tesla Model 3 was left in shock after the car’s main features allegedly froze while he was driving 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 the car was stuck going 83 mph and the main screen was frozen.
He said all of the buttons and switches – including turn signals and hazard lights – were not working.
