HERE IS A MODEL X IN THE JUNKYARD: HTTPS://WWW.SALVAGERESELLER.COM/CARS-FOR-SALE/33866817-2016-TESLA-MODEL-X-SAN-DIEGO-CA THE FRONT RH SUSPENSION HAS FALLEN OFF COMPLETELY. THERE IS NO IMPACT DAMAGE TO THE BODY. NO AIRBAGS HAVE DEPLOYED. THIS A CLEAR CASE OF WEAK SUSPENSION PARTS SNAPPING ON THESE TESLAS. THERE HAVE BEEN DOZENS OF SIMILAR INCIDENTS. PLEASE DO NOT GRANT TESLA ANY MORE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE.

MY TESLA MODEL X 2016 ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN AFTER I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AT A PARKING LOT, CRASHED INTO THE FRONT OF A PEDIATRICS BUILDING. 2 INJURIES. AIRBAG WAS INFLATED.

THERE HAS BEEN A CRASH OF A TESLA MODEL X IN HONG KONG. HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=GKA0MWYSVHW THE TESLA IS THE ONLY VEHICLE INVOLVED. THE BACK WHEEL HAS FALLEN OFF AND THE CAR HAS CRASHED INTO A BUS STAND INJURING SEVERAL PEOPLE. THESE CARS HAVE A PROBLEM WITH UNINTENDED ACCELERATION AND SUSPENSION FAILURE. PLEASE TAKE ACTION BEFORE MORE LIVES ARE LOST.

HERE IS A REPORT OF A TESLA MODEL X IN CHINA HAVING EVERY AIR-BAG IN THE CAR SUDDENLY GO OFF WHILST THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. HTTP://HZNEWS.HANGZHOU.COM.CN/SHEHUI/CONTENT/2017-06/27/CONTENT_6588362.HTM (GOOGLE WILL TRANSLATE) OCCUPANTS WERE SLIGHTLY INJURED BY THE AIR-BAGS. IF TESLA AIR-BAGS WERE TO GO OFF RANDOMLY THEY COULD CAUSE A MAJOR CRASH. THE OWNER CLAIMS THAT TESLA IS BEING UNCOOPERATIVE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE

A TESLA MODEL X HAS JUST CRASHED AND BURST INTO FLAMES. HTTP://WWW.OCREGISTER.COM/2017/06/25/CAR-SMASHES-INTO-OCFA-GATES-IN-A-RECURRING-PROBLEM/ PHOTOGRAPHS ARE ATTACHED WHICH SHOWS A FRONT WHEEL AND SUSPENSION LYING ON THE GROUND SOME DISTANCE BEFORE THE CRASH SCENE. THE TOP BALL JOINT HAS POPPED APART. EVEN IF THE SUSPENSION WAS HIT IN THE CRASH THE BALL JOINT SHOULD NOT HAVE POPPED. YOU HAVE SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS ON RECORD OF TESLA BALL JOINTS COMING APART. IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE THAT THE BALL-JOINT FAILURE CAUSED THE CRASH. ALSO THE TESLA HAS ONCE AGAIN SELF-IGNITED. CRASH TESTS NEED TO BE DONE WITH A BATTERY THAT IS HOT FROM RECENT CHARGING OR FROM FAST DRIVING TO FIND OUT WHY TESLAS BURST INTO FLAMES SO OFTEN. PLEASE INVESTIGATE

FALCON DOORS DO NOT ALWAYS OPEN CORRECTLY. SOMETIMES THEY SENSE AN OBSTACLE THAT IS NOT PRESENT AND SO WILL NOT OPEN. THIS FAILURE HAPPENS MORE OFTEN WHEN THE FALCON DOORS ARE HOT, FOR EXAMPLE AFTER BEING IN THE SUN. TESLA SERVICE CENTER HAS REPLACED THE SENSORS IN BOTH OF MY FALCON DOORS, BUT THE PROBLEM REMAINS.

VEHICLE ACCELERATED SUDDENLY AND CRASHED INTO A TREE IN FRONT WHILE PARKING THE CAR IN A PARKING LOT. WE REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO TESLA BUT THEY GOT BACK TO US DENYING ANY CAR MALFUNCTION THAT CAUSED THE ACCELERATION. HOWEVER WE RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER TODAY SAYING THAT AFFECTED PARKING BRAKE CALIPER MAY CAUSE IN ROLLAWAY AND CRASH.

A MODEL X OWNER HAS REPORTED THAT THE FALCON DOOR OPENED ON THE FREEWAY PLACING THE LIFE OF HER CHILD AT RISK. HTTPS://WWW.REDDIT.COM/R/TESLAMOTORS/COMMENTS/6GIIAO/MY_MODEL_X_90D_DRIVER_SIDE_FALCON_DOOR_OPENED_ON/ SHE HAS STATED THAT SHE INTENDS TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA BUT I DO NOT SEE THAT COMPLAINT LISTED ON YOUR DATABASE. A TESLA REPRESENTATIVE JOINED THE ONLINE CONVERSATION AND ASKED THE OWNER TO MAKE DIRECT CONTACT. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE OWNER MAY HAVE BEEN PERSUADED NOT TO FILE A REPORT. I HAVE COPIED THE OWNERS OPENING POST AND THAT IS ATTACHED TO THIS COMPLAINT. IF THE OWNER HAS ACTUALLY FILED A COMPLAINT THEN PLEASE DISREGARD THIS ONE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT COULD EASILY HAVE COST THE LIFE OF A CHILD. THANK YOU.

RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE WITH NHTSA RECALL CODE 17V-260. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE PARKING BRAKE CALIPER THAT "CAN RESULT IN AN INABILITY TO MOVE A PARKED VEHICLE" OR AN "INCREASED RISK OF A CRASH". I RECEIVED THIS NOTICE TODAY, JUNE 10, BUT TESLA DOESN'T EXPECT TO HAVE THE NECESSARY PARTS UNTIL OCTOBER!! THIS TO ME SEEMS UNREASONABLE.

DRIVER SIDE FALCON DOOR OPENED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WITH MY 6 Y.O. SITTING NEXT TO DOOR. ON JUNE 2, 2017 WE WERE AT TOY R US WITH OUR PARENTS AND OUR 6 YEAR OLD SON, A TOTAL OF 5 PEOPLE. FOR CONTEXT, MY SON SITS NEXT TO THE DRIVER SIDE FALCON DOOR, ME IN THE CENTER AND MY MOM ON THE RIGHT. MY HUSBAND AND FATHER ARE IN THE FRONT. AS WE WERE LEAVING, THE LEFT SIDE FALCON DOOR WAS STUCK AGAIN. WE IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE SERVICE CENTER DUE TO IT BEING FRIDAY BUT SINCE IT WAS LATE IN THE DAY WE LEFT A MESSAGE AS THEY WERE ALREADY CLOSED. WE STARTED TO DRIVE HOME BECAUSE THROUGH OUR PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE WE WERE ALWAYS ADVISED TO DRIVE THE CAR BACK TO THE SERVICE CENTER AS THE CAR IS STILL DRIVABLE. DURING THE RIDE, I WAS CALLING THE ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO WRITE UP A TICKET TO REINFORCE TO THE SERVICE CENTER TO CALL US TO SCHEDULE SERVICE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. WHILE ON THE PHONE WITH ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE, I HEAD A CLICK IN THE DOOR AND THE MOTOR AS THE DOOR STARTED TO LIFT OPEN. I GRABBED ONTO THE DOOR WITH MY LEFT HAND AND HELD ON AND THE DOOR HAD ABOUT A 2-3 INCH GAP. WE HAD BEEN ON THE ROAD FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES AT THIS TIME AND WERE ON THE 5 NORTH FREEWAY RIGHT BEFORE THE TUSTIN RANCH EXIT. WE IMMEDIATELY EXITED AND PARKED IN THE TUSTIN AUTO CENTER. THE DOOR OPENED ONCE WE PARKED AND CLICKED CLOSED ONCE THE BUTTON WAS PRESSED. AS WE WERE CLOSE TO HOME AND CAN DRIVE HOME VIA LOCAL STREETS, WE DROVE HOME. WE INFORMED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO IMMEDIATELY SET UP A TOW FIRST THING IN THE MORNING ON SATURDAY. THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME THE DOOR HAS MALFUNCTIONED, THE OTHER THREE TIMES OCCURRED ON JAN .28. APRIL 23, AND APRIL 25 AND THEIR ATTEMPTS TO FIX DOOR HAS BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL BUT THIS LAST INCIDENT ADDED ON THE DOOR OPENING ON HIGHWAY WOULD LEAD TO SERIOUS BODILY INJURY HAD I NOT GRABBED ONTO THE DOOR. PLEASE CONTACT US FOR MORE DETAIL TIMELINE.
