2024 TESLA MODEL Y Complaints

According to Tesla the AI4 computer experienced an internal short circuit. This has rendered all cameras including backup camera, GPS, parking sensors, and automatic wipers inoperable. The visibility out of the vehicle is very poor to the rear without the backup camera. Parking without the rear camera and parking sensors is difficult. Not having physical controls for the wipers makes turning them on/off and changing speeds difficult, causing a lot of drivers distraction.

Around Dec 16 all cameras in my 2024 Model Y Tesla stopped working and it has not worked since that date. This affects many systems, the most important of which is that I now have no rear backup camera. I believe vehicle manufacturers are required to have functioning back up cameras. I notified Tesla service on 12/16 and was told there was a known computer hardware problem which would cause my incident. Tesla service told me they were unable to obtain the needed computer replacement for a month at least. They informed me there was no safety risk, but I disagree since I don’t have a functioning back up camera, nor lane change camera assistance. Also the display panel is very dark and impossible to read most of the time, posing another safety concern. Why has Tesla not issued a public statement about this problem, and why has NHTSA not mandated a formal recall?

Vehicle Information: • Make: Tesla • Model: Model Y • Year: 2024 Description of the Problem: After a software update pushed by Tesla, the AP4 computer in my 2024 Tesla Model Y shorted out, causing a complete failure of all systems controlled by this computer. The following safety-critical and driver-assist features have become non-functional: Cruise Control (adaptive or otherwise) Back up Camera Forward Collision Warning Lane Departure Warning Lane Keeping Assistance Blind Spot Warning Parking Collision Warning Full Self-Driving and Auto Park features Cameras required for Autopilot functionality Additionally, because the GPS system has failed, the vehicle’s Navigation system is inoperable. This impacts Tesla’s unique route planning feature that sets up Supercharger stops during long journeys. Without a functioning navigation system, I cannot properly plan my travel or locate charging stations, which severely affects the usability of the vehicle. Safety Concerns: The failure of these systems, especially safety features like forward collision warning, lane keeping assistance, and blind spot monitoring, puts both the driver and others on the road at risk. Losing access to safety-critical functions after an update is unacceptable and poses a serious danger to vehicle occupants and surrounding traffic. Incident Details: • The issue occurred immediately following a software update. • Tesla pushed the update remotely without providing any warning or indication of potential risks. • The failure appears to be related to a hardware short in the AP4 computer, directly caused or exacerbated by the update. Desired Outcome: • A thorough investigation into Tesla’s software update process and its effect on vehicle hardware and safety systems. • A resolution that prevents similar failures in other vehicles and ensures system updates do not compromise vehicle safety or critical functionality.

The FSD feature for which we have paid in full to Tesla does not work. No cruise control and no Assisted Steering Control or Cruise Control works. As per their Service Department, AP4 Car Computer has internal short and camera can not communicate for above mentioned features.

Several malfunctions: all cameras including rear cameras were disabled, high beams would flash on and off continuously when in auto mode. Front Passenger safety restraint failure alert message that eventually turned off. The car continuously has a humming noise even after turned off. Navigation system was not operable.

After a software update pushed by Tesla, the AP4 computer in my 2024 Tesla Model Y shorted out, causing a complete failure of all systems controlled by this computer. None of cameras on my vehicle are now viewable. Due to the design of the vehicle, reversing without having a backup camera functional is a hazardous event. Also, the following safety-critical and driver-assist features have become non-functional: -Cruise Control (adaptive or otherwise) -Forward Collision Warning -Lane Departure Warning -Lane Keeping Assistance -Blind Spot Warning -Parking Collision Warning -Full Self-Driving and Auto Park features -Cameras required for Autopilot functionality -GPS system has failed, the vehicle’s Navigation system is inoperable. Safety Concerns: The failure of these systems, especially safety features like forward collision warning, lane keeping assistance, and blind spot monitoring, puts both the driver and others on the road at risk. Without a backup camera, the risk of causing injury to people or property is greatly increased. Losing access to safety-critical functions after an update is unacceptable and poses a serious danger to vehicle occupants and surrounding traffic. Incident Details: • The issue occurred immediately following a software update. • Tesla pushed the update remotely without providing any warning or indication of potential risks. • The failure appears to be related to a hardware short in the AP4 computer, directly caused or exacerbated by the update.

All cameras stopped working. Blind spot detection not working. Blinkers stopped working. No parking assist. Auto wipers . Adas not working. Screen auto brightness not working. Clicking when letting off accelerator. We damaged our tire and rim due to this issue.

The autopilot computer failed. This has rendered all safety systems and camera on the vehicle inactive, including the rear view camera, all forward and side cameras so no active safety systems are functioning. This includes crash avoidance, lane keeping, blind spot warning, cruise control, and rear camera during reverse, the vehicle is nearly impossible to reverse as the view is terrible with no cameras.

Hello , I just bought the new Tesla Model Y 2024 in the October and all of a sudden all the driver assistance programs are not working, including the Rear Camera(Reverse camera) I took it for the service on December 4th and they fixed issue on December 5th. After few days on December 13th the same issue happened again and Tesla service center is saying I need to wait till February 20th 2025 for the repair. All cameras are not working in the car, it does not show any backup camera, No forward collision warnings or no lane change assist Tesla is not considering this as a safety issue I am including a chat summary with the service center via PDF file. I have included previous repair invoice also when the same issue happened on 4th December
