There's a pretty detailed breakdown available on some of the issues with packs from the affected models and years: https://skie.net/skynet/projects/tesla/view_post/23_Explaining+Changes+post-firmware+2019.16+Regarding+Range+Loss https://skie.net/skynet/projects/tesla/view_post/23_Explaini... Basically there are issues with the BMS that could cause an issue at higher states of charge. They shipped firmware to limit the charge until they could sort out the cause and potentially fix it with software. And it sounds like that part is resolved in many cases. It looks like the charging issues are different, and he didn't go into those. Anecdotally, I've been hearing a lot of reports of that getting fixed too, though.

The writeup is brilliant, and the engineers have certainly done heroics to find a software fix for an issue that should warranted a recall. But that doesn't exonerate Tesla in any way. Tens of thousands of customers got cars gimped with no official explanation from Tesla. It's been close to two years - that's a significant part of the vehicle's lifetime. Tesla still hasn't admitted any issues and still hasn't compensated the owners - absolute radio silence from them. It's abhorrent
