Reports about various problems associated with Tesla vehicles are not going away.  Fortunately, this new issue isn’t related to fires or self-driving software.

From Zerohedge:

European Tesla drivers tweeted Tuesday that their mobile smartphone app to control their vehicles has crashed. Some complained remote functions ceased to work as the app read “503 Server Maintenance.”

The Tesla App allows drivers to remotely view the status of their vehicles, lock or unlock doors, manage climate control, and control charging. The inability to access the app could create headaches for drivers.

One of the first tweets about the Tesla App being down was from a person in Germany on Tuesday morning
