Model X low coolant panic

[on-to-be-fitting]

Got a major scare with my Model X last night! Popped up a low coolant warning and I'm freaking out. Tesla service says it's probably a part that needs replacing, but they're an hour and a half away. They said it's okay to drive as long as the message stays green, but I'm terrified of it turning red and being stranded. Has anyone else dealt with this? I'm a nervous wreck!

How are you now? Just open your frunk and remove the plastic between the main storage area and the windshield. It has vents. You should be able to see the coolant tank in there.

I had a low coolant warning on my Model X too, and it was super stressful, and not what I planned to spend my day on. If you pop open the frunk and check the coolant tank, and it’s empty, I think you can add a bit, just to get you to the service center, but confirm from Tesla before doing this. You might be lucky though, if it stays green, you should be good, but don’t even try driving if it turns red.

Totally get why you're worried. If the message stays green, you should be fine to drive, but I'd still keep a close eye on it and maybe take breaks to check the status.
