The TESLAROBOTAXI (MODEL Y) appears in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database with 1 consumer safety complaints and 0 recall campaigns across 1 model year (2026–2026). That averages roughly 1 complaint per model year. Report counts can differ between model years for many reasons; this dataset does not establish the cause of a difference.
Complaint volume on a nameplate alone is not a reliability verdict: a long-running bestseller can accumulate more filings than a low-volume niche model because more vehicles are on the road. The table below shows report counts and published NHTSA crash-test ratings side by side for each model year.
NHTSA has 19 investigation files tied to this model, with 4 currently open. Investigation records, complaint reports, and recall campaigns each provide different context. Use the official NHTSA VIN lookup and the underlying notices to research a specific vehicle; PlainCars does not infer a vehicle-risk or pricing conclusion from these records.
