It was a windy day I was driving to work I was only driving max 14 mph and there were leaves flying due to the wind and without any warning the phantom break came on and my car just randomly stopped. It was in my neighborhood at 1830. It left me traumatized for few minutes because there was no need for the car to randomly stop like it did. The outcome could have been an injury if I was on the freeway or if a car was behind me. Till this day ever time I drive it i wonder if I will have the same i

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding ongoing safety and service issues with my 2024 Tesla Model X. This is the third Tesla vehicle we’ve owned, and while our previous two vehicles performed excellently, this one has presented serious and recurring problems with the Full Self-Driving (FSD) system. Since the second service visit, we have experienced four separate incidents in which the vehicle has either driven off the road or abruptly slammed on the brakes without warning. Despite

20251007POWER TRAIN

Tesla remotely blocks a car powertrain without warning if a service invoice wasn’t paid before leaving a service center. This poses a safety risk because the car might unexpectedly become non-driving, such as after returning from a hike with young kids in a remote area, without water, food, or medications. To reproduce this issue, follow these steps: 1. Leave a Tesla service before a service or part is charged to the card on file (this can happen for various reasons). 2. Park the car in an un

Purchased this vehicle new from Tesla on March 29, 2024. As I got home I hear a pop sound come from underneath the car and the abs warning light came on. The vehicle lost some of the functions like regenerative breaking and cruise control. The suspension was also inoperable. I brought the car in on the first availible service date to get the repair done which took a few days. After repair was completed I went back to pick the car up only to have the same warnings appear on the odometer and lost

I want to bring to your attention a safety issue on the 2024 Tesla Model X. The turn signal buttons are a safety hazard. 1. I have found myself pressing the wrong turn signal button and was nearly in an accident more than once. That’s because the turn signals are placed too close together (see attachment). You have to take your eyes off the road and look down to make sure you are pressing the correct turn signal button. It’s too easy to press the wrong button. 2. At night, it’s hard to r
