2015 TESLA MODEL S — Complaint #1672124

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL filed June 25, 2020

NHTSA complaint #1672124 (ODI reference 11330896) concerns a 2015 TESLA MODEL S and was filed on June 25, 2020. The owner reports the failure occurred on June 25, 2020. The report was geocoded to Georgia based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as equipment:electrical, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same TESLA MODEL S cohort independently describe similar equipment:electrical failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2015 TESLA MODEL S shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.

Complaint Description

TESLA MODEL S CENTER CONSOLE SCREEN GOES BLACK AND WILL NOT RESTART. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. WITH IT BEING THE BRAINS OF THE CAR, ITS USELESS. APPARENTLY TESLA KNOWS ABOUT IT, BUT NO RECALL IS BEING ISSUED. THE REPAIR IS AROUND 2,000. THIS NEEDS TO BE MADE A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. *TR
