I researched Tesla’s “bricking” and not starting after seeing that image on reddit. Turns out it can’t happen while driving and means something failed mid upgrade while the car isn’t in use. Maybe I’m wrong, but the Telsa forums were absolutely livid when a poster used the word brick. His car was in state where it couldn’t start or upgrade again.

>Turns out it can’t happen while driving and means something failed mid upgrade while the car isn’t in use. Are the upgrades user initiated? I've had (or seen) enough productions and live events degraded or interrupted by the windows autoupdater to be terrified of the idea of "isn't in use" updates.

  From my limited Telsa knowledge they were user initiated and your able to decline them. Meaning, you wouldn’t be stuck at the store if you come outside and all of the sudden your car has to update. Perhaps some updates need to be done overnight?
