I am writing to report and formally document a very serious and distressing safety incident involving my Tesla Model X that occurred for a second time, on [XXX]. While driving routinely into the parking garage at my workplace, my vehicle suddenly and violently stopped without warning. There were no obstacles, vehicles, or pedestrians in front of me. The abrupt stop caused my body and head to jolt forward with force, resulting in whiplash. I am still feeling dizzy, dazed, and disoriented, and I

The impact occurred at 55MPH. The flexible delineator posts were the only obj
I own a Tesla Model X 6-seater. The second-row seatbelt repeatedly becomes twisted and fails to retract or lay flat after only a few days of normal use. I have brought the vehicle to the Tesla Service Center in Austin, TX (2323 Ridgepoint Dr) multiple times â five separate repair visits so far â for the same issue. Each time, the technicians temporarily correct the twist or adjust the belt path, but the issue returns within days. I have attached screenshots of all five repair records, inclu
Hazard flasher button in my 2-weeks old new Tesla Model X is not working. On August 23, 2025, I was in a parking lot and needed to turn on the hazard flashers to signal to the car behind me that I was waiting for another vehicle to leave a parking space. I discovered that the hazard flasher button on my 2025 Tesla Model X did not work at all. Since I could not activate the hazard lights, I had to continue driving to find another parking spot. This was the first time I tried to use the hazard f
The contact owned a 2025 Tesla Model X. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 65 MPH with Self-driving Assist activated, while the vehicle in front deaccelerated, the vehicle had aggressively deaccelerated.

Several unknown warning lights illuminated. In addition, the contact stated that the vehicle was struck in the

There is an error alert on my car that says front left safety restraint issue service is required. So seems to me the airbags or seat belt may not be working properly and its clearly labeled as a safety issue. We have to drive this vehicle nearly daily and tesla is refusing to fix for a minimum of 10 days even though this fault could threaten our lives. Make them fix ASAP

serious error made during full self drive, it wants to make an illegal left turn at the intersection of cascade road and beltine that has caused multiple near collisions (see google maps location [XXX] ). I notified tesla of this via feedback option with no change for the last 4 months. I am concerned about full self drive ignoring traffic laws.

Left indicator button is randomly unresponsive, sometime it doesnât work for up to a minute. This happened to me with my previous model x (bought back by tesla in a lemon case for the same issue), happened to me also in a loaner car they gave me while trying to fix this issue and now again in a recently purchased model x. In both cases Tesla replaced the steering yoke and that didnât solved the issue This is a serious safety issue that left me frustrated and with no solution from Tesla. Ever
I own a 2025 Tesla Model X. A large crack appeared in the windshield spontaneously, without any impact or road debris. It has since worsened audibly while driving. Tesla is classifying this as an accident without identifying an impact point, and they have refused to cover towing or acknowledge a potential manufacturing defect. I do not feel safe driving the vehicle in this condition and believe this may be a structural glass failure. Escalation to Tesla Executive Support is ongoing. Safety conc

On [XXX], I visited the Tesla Brooklyn Showroom to purchase a new Tesla Model X. I tendered a valid, notarized promissory note for $128,487.79 as full payment for the vehicle. Under UCC § 3-310, a promissory note is a negotiable instrument payable on demand, legally considered a cash equivalent. Despite fulfilling my payment obligation, the vehicle was not delivered. On May 10, 2025, I returned to the showroom to deliver an enforcement packet, which included the promissory note, an Affidavit o
My 2025 Model X has a feature commonly called "one pedal drive", where lifting pressure off the gas pedal causes regenerative braking force. This feature is *forced on* at all times, and is unsafe in slippery icy conditions, especially turns, especially downhill. I don't know if this is because of a malfunction of their regen-braking anti-lock (the ABS equvialent), or because it's simply not possible to drive safely in slippery conditions with one-pedal-drive regen braking... but either way, th
