What can fail
The 12V auxiliary cable for the backup power system may be routed incorrectly and trapped against the wheel well cover. Over time, the wire can rub against the carbon fiber frame, exposing bare wire that may short-circuit and cause electrical arcing.
What the fix does
Tesla will inspect the cable routing and install a protective sleeve around the wire to prevent misrouting and pinching.
