FSD was active before the event but changed to \u201cUnavailable\u201d approximately 1.35 seconds before impact as the vehicle began moving left toward a barrier. The exact cause has not been independently determined. The vehicle remains in my possession and is available for inspection, along with the EDR report and Tesla data files.  My safety and the safety of others were placed at risk because the vehicle departed its travel path at approximately 65\u201367 mph. The warning and disengagement sequence provided only about one to one-and-a-half seconds before impact. The vehicle struck the barrier at highway speed, deploying the left side and curtain airbags. This created a risk of serious injury, rollover or collision with nearby motorists.  The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer because the vehicle was rendered inoperable. However, Tesla\u2019s data confirms that FSD was active, became unavailable approximately 1.35 seconds before the crash, and that the steering angle moved sharply left immediately before impact. The data confirms the sequence but does not conclusively establish who or what initiated the steering movement.  The vehicle has not received a technical inspection by Tesla or an independent defect specialist. Towing have handled it, but no one has technically evaluated the FSD or steering system. Crash data was retrieved from EDR.  Earlier in the drive, the vehicle recorded \u201cAutopilot features limited\u201d and \u201ccamera blocked or blinded\u201d warnings approximately 15 minutes before the crash. The vehicle later permitted FSD to engage. Approximately 1.46 seconds before impact, a hands-on warning was detected; FSD then changed to \u201cUnavailable,\u201d cruise control changed to standby and a lane-departure warning appeared less than one second before impact.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11766523,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"09/23/2026","dateComplaintFiled":"09/23/2026","vin":"7SAYGDEE0NF","components":"SUSPENSION","summary":"After only 34,306 miles, the front lower forward suspension control arms (left and right) and front lower rearward csuspension control arms and ball joints need to be replaced.

When the climate system is set to Auto, the rear vents remain off because the vehicle does not detect the baby/car seat as an occupant. When an adult occupies the same rear seat, the vehicle detects the passenger and the rear vents activate automatically.  This creates a significant safety concern because the driver can have the climate system running normally and the front of the cabin can be cool, while very little conditioned air is being directed to the rear where the baby is seated. On multiple occasions, my baby has been visibly hot and sweating in the rear car seat even though the front of the cabin felt cool and the front climate system was actively running.  The problem is particularly concerning because a baby cannot communicate that they are overheating, and there is no obvious warning to the driver that the rear vents have remained off. A driver could reasonably assume that setting the vehicle\u2019s climate control to Auto is appropriately cooling the occupied cabin.  I have been able to reproduce and isolate the issue. Applying approximately 20 pounds of pressure to a particular area of the rear seat cushion causes the vehicle to recognize the seat as occupied and the rear climate vents to activate. Removing that pressure causes the normal behavior to return. This indicates that the automatic rear climate behavior is dependent on an occupancy-detection threshold or location that a properly installed child car seat with a baby may not satisfy.  A child occupying a rear seat in an appropriate child restraint is a normal and foreseeable use of the vehicle. The automatic climate-control system should not depend on an occupancy-detection method that can fail to recognize this situation and consequently leave the rear vents off.  I believe this presents a huge safety defect and request that NHTSA investigate this.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11762300,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"09/05/2026","dateComplaintFiled":"09/05/2026","vin":"7SAYGDEF1NF","components":"VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE","summary":"My chat constantly phantom brakes.

The tire failed while I was driving on the highway, creating a dangerous situation and significant traffic disruption. After the failure, I discovered severe wear concentrated on the INSIDE edge of the tire. The concerning part is that the normally visible tread appeared serviceable. An owner can therefore believe the tire is safe while the difficult-to-see inner portion may be dangerously worn.  I am concerned that Tesla\u2019s suspension/alignment geometry, including camber/toe settings, vehicle weight, or related components may contribute to excessive inner-edge tire wear. NHTSA should investigate whether this is occurring on other Tesla vehicles and whether owners are being adequately warned to inspect the entire tire, particularly the hidden inner shoulder.  I also experienced a very concerning mileage discrepancy. My vehicle showed approximately 36,000 miles before traveling to Tesla for service. During the trip to the dealership, the mileage associated with my vehicle appeared to increase to approximately 56,000 miles. Tesla subsequently referenced the higher mileage in connection with service/maintenance coverage.  I request that NHTSA investigate whether Tesla vehicles have a pattern of excessive hidden inner-tire wear capable of causing sudden tire failures; whether suspension, alignment, camber, toe, vehicle weight, or related components contribute to this condition; whether Tesla has received similar complaints; and whether owners are adequately warned about this difficult-to-see wear.  I also request review of the approximately 20,000-mile mileage discrepancy and whether the mileage Tesla relied upon accurately represented my vehicle\u2019s actual accumulated mileage.

The vehicle came to a complete stop at a red traffic light on northbound San Gabriel Blvd in Pasadena at the intersection that controls entry to the I-210 West. After waiting for approximately 55 seconds, Autosteer initiated forward movement into the intersection while the traffic light was still red.  The vehicle\u2019s movement was not caused by driver input. My wife\u2019s feet were away from the pedals at the time. There was no visible lead vehicle movement or other obvious external trigger.  Fortunately, my wife was attentive and immediately disengaged Autosteer, brought the vehicle to a stop, and carefully reversed back into a safe position. Moments later, multiple fast-moving vehicles crossed the intersection in front of her path. Had she not intervened promptly, there was a realistic risk of a serious side-impact collision.

I noticed that when in any form of autopilot and FSD it would accelerate to that speed. This happens in any situation before the car encounters a sign or an area that it's internal map corrects it, which is not common outside of major routes in Idaho. This includes paved marked roads, graded roads, single track dirt roads, my driveway and garage. Sometimes the car controls it's speed consistent with conditions, sometimes not. It can happen unexpectedly, and that's the issue. Where I have learned this is a problem, I of course turn off the AP or FSD and drive myself, however, if I am in driver assist mode and things are going well and the speed limit in the vehicle changes suddenly to the default 55 mph, it can take a moment for me to react. In October 2025 I reported this to my Tesla Service center as well as Tesla's over the air and on line email reporting options (from which I got no response). The service center entered a ticket directly with Tesla, and told me that that Tesla was aware. The explanation that came back was that it was due to a mapping update for the internal map of the car. They said it was the result of Google Maps setting the default speed limit in Idaho, which is where I live, to 55 and that this was due to a September 2025 update. They said it might be corrected with the next update, which has not occurred at this point (January 2026). This speeding behavior can happen suddenly and unexpectedly and seemingly randomly, and has the potential to injure pedestrians, the driver, and property, not to mention that it is also exceeding by far the legal speed limit. Drivers from other areas that may not be aware of the issue are likely to be caught unaware. There is absolutely no reason for the default speed to be 55, ever. It's unsafe, and unnecessary. It is rare to see a speed limit of 55 at all in Idaho.

As the vehicle approached the hospital area, I initiated disengagement of FSD to manually enter the parking area. During\u2014or immediately after\u2014the disengagement, the vehicle suddenly accelerated at full power without warning, causing an immediate loss of control and a collision with a nearby fixed structure. No system warnings or alerts were issued prior to the event, and the acceleration was so abrupt that manual intervention was not possible. This occurred in a low-speed, street-level environment where no acceleration was intended or expected and does not correspond to any normal driver input. Based on review of preliminary incident data provided by Tesla, there appear to be irregularities during the FSD-to-manual control transition, including missing or invalid input values, gaps in accelerator/brake/steering signals, and speed readings inconsistent with the crash severity. These indicators suggest potential instability in the real-time control system during disengagement. This report is submitted due to concern that sudden unintended acceleration during FSD disengagement may represent a safety defect with potential risk to drivers and the public.

As I walked up, the car unlocked automatically with my phone key as usual. I placed my dog in the back seat, closed that door, and immediately tried to open the driver\u2019s/front door\u2014but it would not open. The phone key failed, and the backup key card at the B-pillar also failed to unlock the car. I then tried resetting and reconnecting my phone key through the Tesla app, but nothing worked. There were no 12-V or low-voltage warnings on the display or app. I could not find a phone number or live help in the Tesla app; my son and I searched YouTube for guidance but could not fix it. My dog was trapped inside in dangerous heat, so I called 911. Police first tried a slim-jim tool without success and then broke the driver\u2019s window to reach in and open the front door, but the rear doors and windows remained inoperative. The dog was in the car for 30 to 45 minutes before the window was broken.

I am happy and relieved to see this is being looked into since this recently happened to my vehicle a couple of months ago. The rear passenger side door unlocked initially for me to put by [XXX]  old into the car seat but when I went to open the driver's side door, the handles would not open. I tried all other door handles and all were locked. Luckily, I had not shut the door next to my child's car seat yet, otherwise it would've locked my child inside the vehicle.   I opened a ticket with Tesla and they sent a technician out. He said the low voltage battery needed to be replaced and when this happens all electric door handles will be unresponsive and locked. However, the vehicle never showed any warning or notification leading up to this.  He said when the 12V battery fails, the only way to unlock the unresponsive doors is to use the manual release inside the car or jump the 12V battery under the frunk (assuming you have the right jumping cables outside of the car).  The Tesla technician said it is a flaw in the Model Y design and he said I would've had to break a window to get my child out if they are not old enough to locate and release the manual door release inside the vehicle. This poses a huge safety risk to parents with young children. I really hope Tesla implements another emergency way to release the doors from outside the vehicle to avoid young children from being locked inside.

This noise went away after the car was towed to the Service Center. During service at Tesla Service Center in LA on August 04, 2025, technicians identified structural deformation of the left-hand rear subframe toe link mounting side wall. This deformation prevents proper alignment of the suspension bolt and makes a 4-wheel alignment impossible.   Tesla refused warranty coverage, claiming \u201cimpact damage,\u201d citing only cosmetic wheel rim scrape as evidence. However:  1. Torque paint marks remain intact, proving the bolt has not shifted since factory assembly.  2. No collateral suspension damage (control arms, bushings, underbody) was found, which would normally occur if an impact strong enough to bend a subframe ear had happened.  3. This failure mode is nearly identical to Tesla\u2019s prior recall (21V-835 / 23V-235) on the front suspension lateral link bolts, which involved subframe mounting holes deforming and preventing proper alignment.  Safety Concern:  The subframe is a critical structural component of the suspension system. Deformation at the toe link mounting point risks the following issues: improper suspension geometry, loss of wheel alignment, reduced vehicle stability and tire wear, and potential sudden loss of control in emergency maneuvers.  Tesla has declined to repair this under warranty, leaving the defect unresolved. I believe this represents a potential systemic defect in the rear subframe design, similar to the previously acknowledged front subframe defect.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11682563,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"08/19/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"08/23/2025","vin":"7SAYGAEE5NF","components":"STEERING,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL","summary":"After installing the most recent Tesla software update, my vehicle immediately displayed multiple alerts: traction control disabled, stability control disabled, and reduced steering assist.

While Autopilot was engaged, the vehicle failed to slow down or properly navigate a curb near a roundabout. Despite our immediate manual intervention, the front wheel was damaged, resulting in loss of steering and a repair bill exceeding $7,000. After the incident, we were surprised and alarmed to learn that Tesla\u2019s Autopilot is widely known to be unreliable and risky in urban settings. Yet, Tesla imposes no restrictions or clear warnings on its use in such areas, even where the vehicle\u2019s software could easily identify elevated risks. Autopilot handles highways reasonably well, following lanes, making turns, and maintaining distance from other vehicles. This creates a misleading impression that it will perform just as effectively on city roads. However, city roads are far more complex, and the brief transition from Autopilot to human control is often insufficient to prevent accidents. Our experience painfully illustrates this. What concerns us most is that Tesla includes Autopilot as a standard feature but fails to adequately educate users about its limitations. There are no effective restrictions to prevent the system\u2019s use in high-risk scenarios, nor are there built-in warnings when the system is engaged in unsuitable driving environments. This creates extremely dangerous situations for customers. Every life is valuable and deserves proper protection. In addition to the physical damage, the emotional toll after the incident has been significant. What feels especially unjust is Tesla\u2019s response.

I was traveling on a narrow winding two-lane road at night when, desiring to see the information on the current drive, I reached down to the lower left corner of the touchscreen to change the small sub-panel located there. It was on the music panel so I swiped to the left to change to the trip information panel. As soon as I swiped to the left my lights went out and I'm driving in total darkness! In complete fear of running off the road I managed to stop and switch on the 4-way flashers. Someone that had been following me went on around about the time I got the flashes on. Fortunately, I had stopped still on the road and pretty much on my side. (It could have been much worse!) Quite scared and flustered I managed to get the lights switched back on. I don't remember, but I must have used the normal lighting control buttons on the main touchscreen panel.  For a while I had no idea how it happened but eventually figured it out. Whenever you change your lights with the turn-signal stalk (go to dim, to bright or flash them) a small sub-panel pops up in the lower left corner of the touchscreen with all the light control buttons. It stays for about 4 seconds and goes away automatically. So, if you reach down to start or pause the music a few seconds after dimming you lights, your headlights go OFF - the OFF button falls where the Play/Pause button was located a few seconds before. But its much worse than that. You can also simply swipe to the left (what I had done) and the row of lighting buttons act like a slider! The lights can go from AUTO to OFF without warning, no confirmation needed!

In the past an image of the car is on the left side of the screen and a large map is on the right side of the screen. With this update, the map is removed from the right side of the screen when not in gear. If the car is in gear it remains on the screen. To setup ADAS destination it now works best if you have the car in gear. If the car is in park you have only full screen car image and extra steps to get the large map. If you voice command destination you may never see the map until driving on road. You should be driving at that point not interacting with the screen. Accident and pedestrians at risk while using screen. For instance if you get in the car and issue a voice command to destination with only one location the tiny map image in the far upper right corner of the screen displays a route so small and completely without detail it could be wrong but you just assume it is correct because it will take extra user interface interaction to make it large enough to tell what it is actually going to do. You put the car in reverse and back into the street, put the car in drive and now you get the full size map, route, destination for the first time and route is wrong. When in park, interacting with the map you don't really know what will cause the map to go away and be replaced by the car image. Can happen if you change destination entry. The map is removed from the screen every time you put the car in park. Now a big problem. If you are driving and decide maybe I should go to a different destination first and you pull over and put the car in park the map is removed from the screen again and the destination remains unchanged. You either fight the propensity to replace the map with the car image or don't put the car in park.

This is a conic years long recurring issue with Tesla cars. Tesla service can not fix software issues. It seems Tesla will never fix the issue. It creates a safety problem when driving because you must take your attention off the road and interact with the screen or try and remember the various voice commands to control them, or look at the screen while scrolling a wheel (you must pre-configure ahead of time to do this) while looking at the screen to see what gets selected on the screen, or do everything manually on the center screen.

Hour after hour on a long trip and you battle them all day long. Wipers are switched to Auto every time you use a driver assistance system such as Autopilot or Full Self Driving. You repeatedly disable auto wipers using your choice of method all day long. You are ready to rip wipers off the car by the end of the day.  In wet weather auto wipers don't turn off when the rain has ended temporarily or becomes a mist needing only an occasional wipe by pressing the single wipe button.

Additionally, there's no shoulder on that road, and there is a clump of bushes that come very close to the white line, so it's possible that a steering auto-correct initiated the incident.

(I guess if all employees steal from their employer, all is normal when someone steals from their employer.) Tesla says that before making a call, someone would have to disconnect Bluetooth or unpair the phone from the car. But that is not the solution. Tesla should use, for example, the in vehicle camera to determine if someone is in the vehicle before hijacking the phone call through Bluetooth and there should be an active prompt for Tesla to take over the call.

They found that my wheels rims had cracks that caused the tire to leak very slowly. These cracks are invisible to the naked eye (I still have this wheel rim at home). During my negotiation with this Tesla service center, they told me that it was my use that caused the wheels rims to crack, and they would not be responsible for the wheels rims.

The insurance company tried to have the alignment fixed but could not as Tesla would not give any instructions on how to make the repair and suggested that the problem be fixed by Tesla under a warranty repair. This determination was made because the vehicles frame was found to be fine, and the suspension was fine, but the alignment was off with no way to make an adjustment. When I tried to have Tesla repair the alignment, I was told I hit too many potholes and because the car is a performance car I drove the car to aggressively which caused the problem.

The incident occurred at the intersection of XXX Avenue and XXX  Avenue. At this intersection, the traffic light for XXX Avenue was flashing yellow, indicating caution, while the light for XXX Avenue was flashing red, signaling a stop requirement for vehicles on that road.  As I approached the intersection, a sedan traveling southbound on XXX Avenue initiated a right turn onto XXX Avenue. Despite the flashing red light for the sedan's direction, the Tesla's FSD system, which was controlling the vehicle at the time, appeared to misinterpret the right-of-way. The Tesla continued at the same speed without reducing, shifting lanes, or showing any indication of yielding to the turning sedan.  Recognizing the impending risk of collision, the sedan driver executed a sharp right turn, narrowly avoiding an accident but coming close to the curb in the process. Realizing the Tesla's FSD system was not responding appropriately to the traffic situation, I quickly disengaged the FSD mode and manually took control of the vehicle to avert a potential collision.  Remarks: This incident highlights a concern regarding the current capabilities of the Full Self-Driving system in complex traffic scenarios, particularly at intersections with flashing traffic signals. It underscores the necessity for continuous driver attention and readiness to assume control, even when FSD is engaged.

I was in the first of a two lane divided highway with no vehicles within 1000 feet in front of me and several cars passing me on my left. Fortunately, I had both hands on the wheel at the 10 and 2 positions and have good arm strength.  Suddenly, abruptly and violently the car took over the steering and braking swerving to the left about a foot or so then applying the brakes hard while simultaneously turning the front wheels about 65 degrees to the right. I believe another vehicle without the Tesla's low center of gravity would surly have rolled over.  I was now heading across the breakdown lane towards the guardrail. With great effort I took over control of the steering just 1-2 feet from the guardrail pulling hard left and pressing down on the accelerator (to release the brakes) causing a second roll over feeling.  I then turned right to straighten the car out and continued down the highway in the same lane without contacting any objects. I felt the violent nature of the swerving in my lower back and left arm.  The car did not want to release the steering to me. I have no evidence other than the experience of my wife and me. I was coming off a white concrete bridge deck with a slight left curve without any lane markings. At the moment of the incident the bridge deck was covered with a large area of black tar. I believe these two factors caused the car to go into some kind of avoidance maneuver. I also believe a lesser capable driver may have been killed.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11555594,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":true,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":2,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"11/14/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"11/17/2023","vin":"7SAYGDEE2NF","components":"STEERING,LANE DEPARTURE","summary":"I was driving my tesla model Y on the highway and suddenly the steering wheel turn 90 degrees and crash my driver side with the back of the car in the lane to the right.

The issue in question involved the vehicle crashing into a wall on the top level of a parking structure while using the \u201cSmart Summon\u201d feature in Tesla\u2019s mobile app. The \u201cSmart Summon\u201d feature allows you to use the Tesla app to retrieve the vehicle and have it move to your location (within 12 meters) while you are standing outside of the vehicle. This malfunction rendered the vehicle unsafe to drive and significantly affected its performance. I immediately contacted Tesla's customer support and was advised to take my vehicle to the nearest Tesla Service Center or certified repair service center. The Tesla Service Center located in West Covina, CA, performed a diagnostics inspection and technicians said that due to the \u201cSmart Summon\u201d feature being a beta version, they do not take responsibility for the damage caused. I explained that the \u201cSmart Summon\u201d feature was first released in 2016 and that it\u2019s original feature design is for the vehicle to stop completely if it detects any objects in its path of travel. I also raised the question on what if it was our children or any other pedestrian that could have been injured. I would like to emphasize that my Model Y is only 1.4 year old, purchased in April 2022 and it has been meticulously maintained according to Tesla's recommended guidelines. It is perplexing and disheartening to learn that a significant malfunction, seemingly unrelated to any neglect or misuse on my part, would not be covered by Tesla's warranty. I understand that warranties have limitations, but I firmly believe that the malfunction I experienced falls well within the scope of what should be covered. This situation has placed an unexpected financial burden on me, as the estimated repair costs are substantial at almost $8,000. It also raises questions about the reliability and durability of Tesla vehicles.

I applied the accelerator as quickly as possible and when I did the semi was approximately 3 feet from crashing into the rear of my vehicle.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11542805,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"08/25/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"09/05/2023","vin":"7SAYGDEE1NA","components":"STRUCTURE,VISIBILITY/WIPER","summary":"I am writing to formally submit a complaint against the Tesla Service Center in Rockville, Maryland. My concerns relate both to a potential safety issue and the subsequent handling of repairs to my vehicle.  1. **Safety Concern:** On 08/25/2023, the driver-side window of my Tesla vehicle shattered spontaneously without any evident external cause. This sudden malfunction while the car was in use is alarming, representing a significant safety concern for passengers and other road users. I believe that such a defect warrants immediate attention, especially if this is a recurring issue among other Tesla vehicles.  2. **Unsatisfactory Service Post-incident:** After bringing my vehicle to the service above center for repairs, I was relieved that the window issue would be addressed under warranty. However, when my car was under Tesla\u2019s care, another Tesla customer hit and damaged it within their premises.   What is profoundly distressing is how the service center addressed this matter. Instead of accepting responsibility for an accident that happened in their domain, they deflected responsibility, advising me to coordinate with the other car owner for repairs. This has not only added to my inconvenience, but it has also cost me additional time off from work to address damages that were not my fault. Moreover, now I am faced with being without my vehicle for an extended period, given that the body shop estimates a 4-5 day repair timeline. In total, I have been without my car for nearly two weeks due to the initial window concern and the subsequent collision.  This situation has raised concerns about the structural safety of Tesla vehicles and the integrity and responsibility of their service centers. Such a dismissive approach to customer care is unexpected from a brand of Tesla's stature. I strongly believe that no customer should face such challenges and inconvenience, especially when entrusting their vehicle to a service center.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11542771,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"09/03/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"09/05/2023","vin":"7SAYGDEE8NA","components":"TIRES","summary":"GOODYEAR TIRE, 255/40R20 101W XL  I have had to replace 5 tires on my Tesla in 13 months. 3 were from nails, one was from running over a pothole and one was flat from an unknown cause. I have been told by multiple people in the car maintenance field that the tires are not appropriate for the weight of the vehicle therefore are far more prone to imbedded nails and other spontaneous road hazards. I only do basic city driving and avoid industrial/construction zones when able. Also, 2 out of the 5 times I have had a tire with low pressure, the vehicle has indicated the wrong tire. For example, the most recent incident showed my tire pressure at 23 in the front driverside tire, when checked manually the pressure was reading 45 psi in that tire. Went to Tesla and they confirmed the sensor needed to be replaced and made an appointment to have that fixed  in 2 weeks when they were available. I continued to drive the vehicle since I was told it \u201cwas just a sensor\u201d. The next day, the passenger rear tire was flat but indicated appropriate pressure for that tire on car\u2019s reading. I was horrified that I continued to drive on a low tire for an entire day and did not know because the car was indicating the wrong tire was low in pressure. This could\u2019ve resulted in a blow out or other threat to my safety. Supposedly my sensors have been replaced when I have asked for them to be but the sensors reading the wrong tire pressures is a chronic issue. Tesla is aware the tires are prone to flats, which is why they will not sell you tire coverage.

I had previously directed Counsel to transmit a letter to you on January 6, 2023. That letter indicated my Revocation of Acceptance pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code \u00a72608 and notice of defect under the Lemon Law. You have neither responded or taken any action to investigate or make me whole, despite the vehicle having less than 3,000 miles on it, and thus being well within the scope of your warranty. As you are aware, the vehicle you sold me contains material manufacturing design and marketing defects, which I summarize here and in the attached proposed complaint, as follows: -The Vehicle has been contaminated with dangerous VOCs. Independent environmental testing has detected the presence of methl ethly ketone (72 ppbv), ethyl acetate (120 ppbv) and Methyl methacrylate (140 ppbv). This renders the vehicle unsafe to drive. These chemicals are industrial adhesives and solvents used in the manufacture of Tesla's products, and their use has been experimentally tested with fast charging lithium ion cells, specifically, the product I purchased. -The Vehicle does not meet purported manufacturer charging specifications as sold. The vehicle I purchased takes 48 hours to charge - far longer than the normal time represented to me both in terms of materials you posted online in addition to your sales staff. Moreover, the driving range is far shorter than what you purported it to be when the vehicle is sold. -The Software is defective. It freezes.

It is an easy mistake to make when a family has multiple Teslas set up in their app.  Another disturbing part of the event was that in both cases, the driver had no way to close the trunk from within the car unless the car was stopped and then placed in park. The Tesla trunk can only be opened and closed by the driver inside the car when it is in park. But the Tesla app can open and close the trunk when it is in park or drive. The car should only allow the trunk to open when it is in park, even if the app requests it to open.  Upon reporting this to Tesla on May 25, the service team ran diagnostics on the car and said that there were no issues with the car. And then the issue was passed on to engineering to look at. Tesla did not report to me whether this was an intended use of the Tesla app or if there was a problem with my specific car.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11523271,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"05/20/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"05/22/2023","vin":"7SAYGDEE6NF","components":"UNKNOWN OR OTHER,LANE DEPARTURE","summary":"1.

Their guidance was in response to a question I submitted on their web about safe and legal towing with the Model Y factory-installed towing package.   PROBLEM:  Risk of silent brake controller failure.   VEHICLES IMPACTED Model Y's with the Lithium Ion low voltage battery & towing trailers 1500 lbs or more.   TECHNICAL ISSUES: The lithium Ion low-voltage battery operates at 15.5v, out of the normal 12v operating range. The wiring harness sends 15.5 v to the brake controller. Brake controllers connected to the Model Y towing harness do not throw an error. High voltage through a 12 v brake controller may result in unexpected brake controller failure per controller manufacturer's support teams.   Tesla disconnected the 12v aux power to the 7-pin towing connector. This power is used for RF trailer brake controllers. RF brake controllers don't get the required power. RF Brake controllers will throw an error & the driver knows the brake system isn't connected correctly.  WHY DO I KNOW THIS? I bought the Model Y to tow my 2,000 lb teardrop trailer w/ a Prodigy/Tekonsha RF Brake controller. When I attempted to connect & verify the rig was in spec, I discovered there was no power to the 7-pin plug. While troubleshooting, I found a Twitter post that described the problem, said Tesla disconnected the power & there would be a retrofit in mid-2022. See attached.  ATTEMPTED RESOLUTION I've worked with Tesla Rocklin CA for a year. They submitted cases, escalated, and even unsuccessfully tried to connect a 24v controller. A fix isn't hard. I've heard corp. didn't expect people to tow.  COMMUNICATION: To my knowledge, there's been no communication to affected owners or to brake controller manufacturers.   NO FIX PLANNED Tesla Corp. doesn't intend to fix it or communicate to owners. See attached.  ACTION NEEDED People towing may be at risk of silent brake controller failure.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11523092,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"05/10/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"05/21/2023","vin":"7SAYGDEE9NF","components":"STRUCTURE","summary":"I HAVE HAD 3 BROKEN WINDSHIELDS IN 9,400 MILES OF TRAVEL.

Realizing something broke, I wanted to get out of the driveway, and tested if it would move in all directions. Ultimately, I could get the car to get straight at low speed, but if I attempted to steer left or right, the grinding would occur. I moved my car to a safe location and called Tesla Roadside Service to get towed to their service facility. There were no warning messages from the car before or after the incident.

As I entered the lot, I noticed that the road conditions were poor, almost like a gravel road. To be cautious, I drove slowly towards the three empty parking spaces in the middle of the lot, intending to park in the middle spot. I noticed that the road conditions were even worse in front of the parking spot, but it looked wide and not too deep, so I didn't think it warranted serious concern. I carefully maneuvered the car around to prepare for backing up. I've been using the HOLD braking mode, which allows for one-pedal driving, for more than five months. Just as I lifted my foot off the accelerator, the car jerked forward from a small pothole. I still expected the car to come to a stop, as my foot wasn't touching the pedal. I made a comment to my passenger that I was puzzled why the car was still moving as I looked down at my foot far above the pedals. Suddenly, there was a really loud sound (like revving if I remember correctly) that I had never heard before, which surprised both me and my passenger. We exchanged a puzzled look just as the car suddenly jumped forward at full power and hit the car in front of us before I could do anything to stop it.  I believe that this was a software issue related to overcompensation of losing traction control on both sides as the car came to a stop. It's important to note that I did not purchase Tesla's Full Self Driving and was not using any driving assistance features at the time of the accident. In addition, I believe you can request more data from Tesla.  I do not have access to the camera recording of interior scene.  Luckily, both me and my passenger as well as the two people in the front seats in the other vehicle (also same white Tesla Model Y) were not injured.

This morning I downloaded yet another software update, got in my car, drove to Chick-fil-a on a Sunday because Tesla has not fixed this fatal braking bug on the highway for a non-existent round-a-bout so I use that for the car to navigate to. The car tries to get on the state road instead of the highway so I cancel and take over and drive onto the highway/expressway myself. After a couple miles the FSD finally takes over in a 70mph zone and reduces my speed to 45mph and stays at 45mph while passing several 70mph signs it clearly sees in its own 'Tesla vision' on the map in AR(Augmented reality). I cancel and speed back up to 70 before the next overpass where the car puts its hazards on, pulls into the slow lane, says it's executing a round-a-bout. Comes to a complete stop on the highway with hazards while in the travel lane, cars whipping past me on the driver side. Then the car starts yelling at me to grab the wheel which I've never let go of during this entire event so I shake the wheel vigorously left and right and the car does not process that I'm holding the wheel (This is so Tesla can commit fraud when they blame it on the driver and buy more time because NHTSA rules aren't up-to-date on software patches and NHTSA needs to just recall all FSD because Tesla has displayed inability to repair) THEN to add the cherry on top while the car is stopped on the highway, yelling at me to pay attention while I'm shaking the wheel; I press the door open button and my door opens into the fast lane; allowing the (inattentive driver) to unconsciously fall onto the highway in the fast lane at 0mph while not in drive.

Vehicle chose to make a left turn on a less than perfectly symmetric T junction.  The car was on the thru street at the top of the T.  Street had a middle yellow turning zone with yellow lines on the outer side and dotted ones inside.  Camera was not filming at the time the crash began. but did start recording midway. Tesla may have other footage.  In retrospect, while indicating it was intending to turn, I believe the car never entered the middle yellow zone, but instead proceeded directly to the middle of this unusually wide neighborhood intersection where no other vehicles were close by in any direction, although a few were approaching from a distance. It appeared safe to complete the turn, but instead the car feinted forward several times and hesitated to commit to the turn as cars gradually approached from both directions, but were still a safe distance away.  As I waited for it to turn, the vehicle suddenly accelerated at an alarming rate into the turn, so fast that it slid off the road and over the curb into a wall causing extensive damage to the vehicle.  There were no other cars involved and I was not injured, although the car suffered extensive damage and is still being repaired more than two months after the accident.  My foot was definitely not on the accelerator throughout the accident and everything happened so very quickly that I had no time to brake or take other action.  The oncoming car was quite far away and there was plenty of time to turn safely.  If the car issued a warning (although I did not detect one) it would have been almost simultaneous to the amazingly rapid acceleration, leaving no time to react. My speculation is that in its confusion, the vehicle may have transferred nearly instantly from FSD mode to \u201cAccident-Avoidance\u201d Mode, but only Tesla would have that information.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11505066,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":true,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"06/17/2022","dateComplaintFiled":"02/01/2023","vin":"7SAYGDEE5NF","components":"FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE","summary":"With auto-pilot engaged the Tesla came to an abrupt stop on an Interstate.

According to the vehicle's Owners Manual, it should arm at any weight in excess of 100 pounds.   There is an indicator on the main display that clearly displays when the passenger airbag is armed and when it is unarmed.  This is an intermittent issue, occurring more than 50% of the time the seat is occupied. The best we can do to characterize the behavior is as follows:  1) The passenger airbag is more likely to arm correctly if the passenger gets into the car at the same time as the driver.  2) It is less likely to arm correctly if the passenger gets in after the driver has started the car and/or driven it a bit.  Two examples: Driver gets in to set the temp or navigation before a trip and passenger gets in a few minutes later, or driver retrieves car from a parking place and then drives a short distance to pick up the passenger.  In both cases, the airbag is unlikely to arm correctly.  3) Even after a successful drive (in which the airbag armed), say to the grocery store, it is unlikely to arm when the driver and passenger get back in together a few minutes later.  In all cases above, the longer it is driven in a single trip, the more likely it is to randomly arm/disarm itself multiple times during that trip.  By failing to correctly and consistently arm when occupied by a 120-pound adult passenger, it leaves said passenger unprotected in case of an accident.  Tesla Service performed static, calibrated-weight tests, and confirmed that it takes greater than 125 pounds to consistently arm the front passenger airbag.  They have replaced the passenger seat twice so far, and claimed that the most recent seat installed passed the 100-pound test, but the issue persists.  The car was serviced for this issue on November 28th, and again from  November 23 to  December 7.

The car was not being driven, it was being transported from California to Florida atop a large vehicle transportation truck. On the third day of driving, after nearly 2000 miles of the trip on a highway in Louisiana, the hood inexplicably popped open while the car was riding on the top of the transport vehicle. The truck driver was made aware of the issue by a passing motorist, pulled over, and was able to pull the hood down and latch it. Tesla customer support has told me via a chat app that their systems indicate that the hood remained latched during the entire journey, and at no point was unlatched during the transportation period. Tesla also cancelled a scheduled inspection at its own service center, indicating the company has no interest in understanding why a presumably latched hood would suddenly fly open. I have had the vehicle evaluated by two repair shops, and the windshield damage is very obviously and perfectly consistent with a hood swinging around on its hinges and smashing the windshield. The hood, at the near corners which smashed into the windshield, also show scratches and damage/bent metal. I feel very fortunate to not have been driving this vehicle at the time it happened, as I would have completely lost visibility with the hood raised.

We started in Sacrament, California and drove to Twin Falls, Idaho, Salt Lake City and return to Sacramento, CA. I started using the auto pilot steering and cruise control on the freeway (HWY 80 eastbound). At freeway speeds the car would suddenly and randomly apply the brakes, sometimes a very hard brake, which was scary and unsafe.  I expected this normal feature to work properly on this road trip.  As I traveled from Reno, Nevada to Twin Falls, Idaho, this random braking happened over 50 times.  I tried several work arounds by disabling the auto steer, the emergency braking and all the automatic options, however, this random braking issue continued.  There was no pattern and often it would occur with no other traffic on the road and perfectly clear road conditions.  These so called safety features became a safety hazzard. I turned off the cruise control for long stretches because the random braking caused driver stress and fatigue. When I got tired of pressing the accelerator pedal, I would engage the cruise control and my manual work around was to have my foot hover over the accelerator pedal to override the braking manually.  This was stressful since I never know when the hard braking would occur. This problem makes the car unsafe and very difficult to drive on a road trip over freeways. It also significantly impairs the value of this very expensive car since a standard feature (cruise control) does not function properly. It is scary to drive with random sudden hard braking.

The front trunk lid/hood opened completely and smashed into the windshield, completely blocking driver visibility and breaking the glass.  It is unclear as to how the front trunk became unlocked, but in the event it was unlocked while the car was in park, the car should not have been able to shift into gear.  Tesla Model Y's Owners Manual states:   \"If the front trunk is not closed, a message displays on the touchscreen that you cannot shift the vehicle out of Park until the front trunk is securely closed (see Park).\"  Additionally, the Owners Manual states:  \"Model Y will not shift out of Park if the front trunk is not securely shut\"  In the event the trunk was open prior to driving, the car should not have been able to shift out of Park.  Or, if the trunk opened while driving, there was a latch or electrical problem.  Tesla's representative reviewed the incident log from the vehicle and stated that an ignore button was pressed on screen, once the vehicle indicated that the front trunk was open.  Quickly pressing a button while driving to a safe place to pull over is reasonable.  But, regardless, there should be some sort of fail over that prevents the hood from flying open in the event the front trunk is accidentally opened, or in the event the trunk randomly opens on its own.  Perhaps a secondary latch or disabling the vehicle from driving? The hood flying up, smashing the windshield and completely blocking the drivers' visibility could have caused a severe or potentially fatal collision.  Additionally, the incident caused over $4,143.34 in vehicle damage on a car that has just 202 miles on it.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11475080,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"06/27/2022","dateComplaintFiled":"07/21/2022","vin":"7SAYGDEE0NF","components":"FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE","summary":"While driving at highway speed and in adaptive cruise control, my car experienced abrupt deceleration.

I put the can into dynamic cruise control -- this was done by press down twice on the drive shifter on the right side of the steering wheel.

The only indication is a audible 'tone' when disengaging the dynamic cruise control, but road noise, cabin noise, radio music can be that tone less noticeable. I had the car on 'joe' mode which decreases the tone sound. I don't think 'joe' mode is a safe function as it makes critical sounds less noticeable.

The vehicle will slow down suddenly in any number of predictable and unpredictable situations. The extent of the slowdown is variable as well. It can range from a slight \u201chiccup\u201d in the speed, which is simply unpleasant, to a significant, rapid decrease. (Like, more than 10mph, very quickly.) This can occur at various times of day, though I don\u2019t drive much at night (it has happened then as well).  Driving on any two lane road with a vehicle following at any time is risky and in my opinion hazardous. Particularly if the vehicle following is even remotely close. If the following vehicle isn\u2019t paying attention and the car decides to brake for whatever reason (and apparently there are LOTS) that\u2019s a collision waiting to happen.  I have refused to use my car\u2019s cruise control system since shortly after I got the car due to this issue.

Some of the predictable things that cause braking can include, not limited to - oncoming vehicles on a 2-lane (especially trucks, and almost everything bigger than an F150), many larger mailboxes, and in some parts of my commute - simply nothing at all. I don\u2019t know what the car sees, but it brakes. Less predictable are the times it will brake for shadows. Can\u2019t use cruise control when there\u2019s trees shadowing the road. It is absurd.

The nearest car in my lane was least 20 car lengths ahead, if at all.  This experience was quite traumatizing to both me and my wife, and made us feel unsafe on the highway. Luckily, I follow the speed limits in our state, which reduces the likelihood of a rear-end collision (all others drive at least 10 MPH faster than the limit and zip past me).  However, this \"phantom braking\" (as others have dubbed it) is very hard and sudden, often dropping the car down from 70 to 50 MPH in seconds, without warning.  When I contacted Tesla via the app, they texted me to reset the cameras (do a hard reboot).  There has been no follow-up by them.  I do not think that this has fixed it, but have not given it a full test on a long trip.

This occurred approximately 6 times during the drive and only while cruise control was active. Two instances appeared to have been caused by on coming vehicles in opposing direction in the other lane. One at lower speed, 25 mph, a bus in the opposite lane.  Our vehicle applied the brakes hard enough that the car almost came to a complete stop. There was no vehicle directly behind but if there were we would likely have been hit.  The 2nd was an oncoming semi truck on a two lane highway at approx 65 mph.  Our vehicle again with no warning slammed on the brakes.  At this speed we felt some difficulty gaining control of the vehicle.  Again, no vehicles were directly behind so we avoided another possible collision. The remaining 4 instances presented no possible reasons for application of the brakes.  Each time this occurred without warning. This drive sees relatively low traffic levels thankfully, as this issue would likely cause collision with following vehicles not being able to stop fast enough from random hard braking at highway speeds. Our regular driving occurs on more traffic filled roads.  Due to this issue the system cannot be used as an accident would be eminent.

I couldn\u2019t really react. I was pinned briefly. My head hurt a bit, so I had to sit in the house for 2 hours to let the shock settle. On hindsight, I am lucky that the metal rod that connected to the middle seat did not whack me in the skull at that force, since I had exposed it by folding the middle back-rest down. I also think that the spring force might be too excessive, if my kid had triggered that while on the seat, the child might have been seriously injured. I may have been too complacent due to prior experience with other vehicles releasing the seat to fold from the top.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11445838,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"01/02/2022","dateComplaintFiled":"01/02/2022","vin":"7SAYGDEF2NF","components":"FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE","summary":"What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Answer:  AutoPilot / TACC - over the first 800 miles I've used this car for, AutoPilot has not worked correctly in the day or night.  There is a hesitation once every 5-10 miles.  There is a forward collision warning without reason approximately every 20 miles, day or night.  Upon request, the NHTSA may contact me and I will provide off-board videos of the claims within this complaint.    How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Answer:  There is a sudden braking for no apparent reason.  There is a good possibility of being rear ended when behind a Vision only Tesla.    Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? The problem has occurred multiple times over the 700 mile ownership of the car.  Tesla\u2019s remote service team insists that \u201cThese are known limitations of autopilot in some conditions\u201d.  \u201cReviewing my vehicle it is not reporting any faults, all cameras are reporting calibrated and the pitch angles are within speciation.\u201d  A test drive to confirm these settings was offered and accepted.  The test drive confirmed Tesla\u2019s opinion that the car was fine. The car has received three software OTA updates since I\u2019ve received the car and I have catalogued similar issues with every update.   After having Tesla inspect the car, they returned it to me without confirming any changes.  Issues persist after inspection.  Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? The manufacturer has inspected the car and found no faults.  Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? There were no warning lights, apart from Forward collision warnings that occurred at the time of use.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11442878,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"12/06/2021","dateComplaintFiled":"12/06/2021","vin":"7SAYGDEE9NF","components":"FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE,LANE DEPARTURE","summary":"Passenger side b-pillar camera has condensation inside the glass and does not allow for it to opperate.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL Y","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11442044,"manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"11/29/2021","dateComplaintFiled":"11/29/2021","vin":"7SAYGDEE9NF","components":"FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE","summary":"Driving on two-lane highway, speed limit 55mph, with Tesla traffic aware cruise control enabled.
