# Service bulletin SB\-13\-90\-002 R3

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

## Other bulletins for the same vehicles and component

- [SB\-20\-12\-002](/bulletins/10173429.md), 2020-04-06, Service bulletin: VISIBILITY; EQUIPMENT; LANE DEPARTURE; STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS. On some Model S, Model X, and Model 3 vehicles, condensation might build up inside of the B\-pillar applique, potentially obscuring the B\-pillar camera. This condition might cause some Autopilot features to be temporarily unavailable until the condensation goes away, such as Auto Lane Change, Blind Spot Detection, and Lane Departure Warning.
- [SB1617010R1](/bulletins/10168254.md), 2019-11-25, Service bulletin: STRUCTURE. On some Model S vehicles, the G625 ground branch of the front body harness might have too much slack. This might cause chafing or other damage to the ground cable.
- [SB\-18\-11\-003 R1](/bulletins/10166051.md), 2019-10-15, Service bulletin: STRUCTURE. Excessive water ingress to the latches on the rear doors may damage internal components or impede operation of the rear door latch.
- [SB\-18\-11\-002 R1](/bulletins/10166050.md), 2019-10-15, Service bulletin: STRUCTURE. On some Model X vehicles, water might enter the door latches on the rear \(Falcon Wing\) doors, which can damage the electrical components integral to door latching operation.
- [SB1917005R1](/bulletins/10160518.md), 2019-05-28, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE. On some Model X vehicles, a pinched electrical wiring harness at the liftgate might create an obstruction alert, causing the power function of the liftgate not to operate. The liftgate can still be manually opened and closed.
- [SB\-16\-11\-006 R2](/bulletins/10154507.md), 2019-03-11, Service bulletin: STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR; LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH. Early front door latches are susceptible to water ingress, which might cause the touchscreen to show the door in the wrong position or prevent the door from opening and closing automatically. The door can still be opened with the inside handle.
- [SB\-19\-11\-001](/bulletins/10153419.md), 2019-02-19, Service bulletin: STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE; EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TAIL LIGHTS. On certain Model S vehicles, the liftgate has plugs that do not allow water to drain, causing condensation to build up inside the tail light assembly. Tail light functionality is not affected. The retrofit of updated drain\-type liftgate plugs allows water to escape the liftgate and keep the tail lights dry.
- [SB\-15\-16\-003 R1](/bulletins/10110745.md), 2017-08-04, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:PROPULSION SYSTEM:TRACTION BATTERY; STRUCTURE:BODY. It is possible to accidentally break off the aeroshield support tab from the HV Battery. If the tab breaks, the mid aeroshield is not fully supported, reducing the aerodynamic efficiency of the vehicle. The operation of the HV Battery is not affected.
- [SB\-15\-16\-002 R1](/bulletins/10110744.md), 2017-08-04, Service bulletin: STRUCTURE:BODY; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:PROPULSION SYSTEM:TRACTION BATTERY. It is possible to accidentally break off the aeroshield support tab from the HV Battery. If the tab breaks, the mid aeroshield is not fully supported, reducing the aerodynamic efficiency of the vehicle. The operation of the HV Battery is not affected.
- [SB\-14\-30\-002 R4](/bulletins/10110743.md), 2017-08-04, Service bulletin: STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS:UNDERBODY SHIELDS. Three metal plates are installed on the front subframe to deflect road debris and protect the underbody from possible damage.
