The woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, was stopped at a Wawa gas station in Pennsylvania on Sunday when she attempted to charge her Tesla with 110 miles of battery life. According to reports, the vehicle's system appeared to be functioning normally until it abruptly shut down and locked itself, leaving the driver trapped inside.

The woman described the experience as "terrifying," saying that "there was no air circulating" in the vehicle after the power went out. She managed to call for help and was eventually freed by emergency services.
