    This issue is pretty scary and I'm still shocked after a couple of hrs. Luckily no damage was caused but I couldn't stop thinking what will happen if I were on the highway. I was waiting for the red light, fully stopped, and waiting to get onto the highway. However, after 2-3 seconds, the car started to move. I was surprised, shocked and trying to stop the car in the meantime. However, the brake stops working and It seems to be very tight and I couldn't step on it to make it stop. Then I was able to turn right into a gas station(very lucky, no car on the right lane) and then I was able to switch to "P" to fully stop the car. I then called the Tesla road assistance and my car was towed and they're checking the issue now. Wanted to log this since this could be very very very DANGEROUS!

    When using Tesla's Cruise-Control, Traffic Aware Cruise Control or Enhanced Auto-Pilot the vehicle severely brakes without any reason. This happens every time the vehicle is taken on the highway. It is sometimes reproducible because it happens every single time at specific geographic locations. Most often it is not reproducible. On the highways it has put me in danger more than once. The vehicle would brake while going at 75mph and slow down rapidly all the way down to 45mph. Other vehicles following at safe distances have to veer away quickly or slam on their brakes to avoid an accident. Everyone inside the car experience a whiplash from their seat belts. I opened a service ticket with Tesla. I was told that they ran a remote diagnostics and found no hardware issue in the car. The ticket was closed by Tesla after they pointed out that Enhanced Auto Pilot is a Beta version. I gave them very specific examples of how to reproduce this issue. No on came to drive the car before closing the ticket.

    2022 Tesla Model Y front aero shield bolts become loose and the aero shield becomes loose and becomes a safety hazard for other drivers. Tesla will not warranty part nor will claim responsibility for poor manufacturing & assembly. All Tesla models have this issue and it needs to be fixed.

    Auto acceleration(forward) caused while parking and crashed into fence and utilities. Requested TESLA to diagonalize the cause of auto acceleration. Tesla couldn't handle my request well and they canceled and delayed my request, finally, they rejected my request as the car was salvaged.

    I was driving on the highway and the frunk came off breaking the front shield. The frunk was still showing as closed on the computer, but the screws came off releasing the frunk. Luckily I was able to react appropriately and move the car to the shoulder of the highway but the incident could’ve caused death. Visibility was zero as the front shield was obstructed by the open frunk

    While using cruise control on the highway, the car suddenly decelerated twice. Each time the cruise control was set around 78mph, and it decelerated to approximately 70mph. No warnings were issued before, during, or after the decelerations— the car continued as if nothing had happened.

    Driver seat constantly moving forward and will not move or stay backwards. Every 20-30 seconds the seat will move/adjust on its own and we cannot move the seat back. The seat moving on its own and not allowing us to move it back to normal or regular driving position leaves us in an unsafe position putting our chest right up to the steering wheel because it keeps pushing the seat forward. There were no accidents that resulted from this thankfully, no message or warning lights or lamps. Just happened randomly out of no where and will not go back to normal driving position.

    Repeated phantom braking when using adaptive cruise control. This happened at least 10 times in one day and is a safety issue. Most recent software update seems to have made this problem worse not better.
