Tesla adds Emergency Drive Away at U.S. Superchargers

Tesla enabled Emergency Drive Away in software 2026.38.3, letting supported vehicles shift into Drive while still plugged into a U.S. Supercharger. Tesla Charging said the feature is for emergencies only, will damage the car and charger, and that pre-2021 Model S and Model X are unsupported. TeslaNorth reported Tesla Charging later put repair costs as high as $25,000 and said a charge-port service visit is mandatory after use.
