"Owners can't connect to their cars". There's a headline I never expected to see...
One day in the near future: "Nationwide airplane grounding because someone unpublished the isObjectEqualTo8 package on npm and this broke air traffic control towers all over the place."
I would not be surprised if I saw this headline today
The app has been buggy as hell lately. :(
Opposite for me funnily enough. Since the facelift of the app it's been working miles better and more reliably than before.
Note the headline can be slightly misleading for those not familiar with the Tesla cars and app. This outage affects app features only, like remotely turning on your AC or popping open your front trunk.

You can still walk up to your car, have it auto unlock, and start driving just like normal. All of that operates off of Bluetooth.

How could anyone have seen this coming?!! LOL
I dispare for the future when all cars, your house, etc. Are dependent on apps to do simple things, like open a door.
