The vehicle experienced an out-of-warranty failure requiring immediate replacement of both lower arms to restore structural integrity and driving safety.    Due to the failure, I was forced to pay entirely out of pocket for the replacement parts and labor. This specific failure mirrors the exact conditions currently being monitored under the active NHTSA preliminary evaluation into Tesla Model 3 and Model Y front lower lateral link detachment.  Despite the severe safety risk associated with sudden structural failure or detachment of these critical suspension components while driving, my vehicle’s specific VIN is not currently covered under Tesla's existing, highly limited recall campaigns (such as Recalls 21V-835 or 23V-235). I am submitting this complaint to request that NHTSA expand the scope of its current suspension investigation to ensure owners who have already paid out of pocket for these premature structural failures are officially included in a mandatory manufacturer recall and eligible for retroactive reimbursement.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2018","productMake":"TESLA","productModel":"MODEL 3","manufacturer":"Tesla, Inc."}]}]}
