2021 TESLA MODEL Y Complaints

The Vehicle was in FSD Beta mode and while taking a left turn the car went into the wrong lane and I was hit by another driver in the lane next to my lane. the car gave an alert 1/2 way through the turn so I tried to turn the wheel to avoid it from going into the wrong lane but the car by itself took control and forced itself into the incorrect lane creating an unsafe maneuver putting everyone involved at risk. car is severely damaged on the driver side.

The contact owns a 2021 Tesla Model Y. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle would experience random braking without input from the driver. The contact stated no warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 6,450

Sudden, hard self breaking when in autopilot mode. Danger of collision at high speeds.

While driving on well marked highways, the adaptive cruise control would initiate rapid and unsafe braking while using the vehicles “AutoPilot”. The braking is equivalent to a user putting full pressure on a brake pedal, losing 10-20mph by the time I am able to intervene, even if I’m ready to take over. Such rapid deceleration leaves me vulnerable to a rear collision from following drivers There is no warning, and no alarms from the vehicle. The manufacturer has no specific response, other than advising a system reset. The system reset does not solve the problem.

Vehicle applies brakes suddenly while cruise control is active at highway speeds, for no discernible reason. This happens extremely often and has almost caused the person following to rear end me on multiple occasions

Since purchasing the car less than a month ago, there have been over 100 phantom braking events while using cruise control. The vehicle will suddenly SLAM on the brakes with no apparent reason, even when there are semi trucks following closely behind. The only way I have avoided rear end accidents is by emergency presssing the accelerator. It is incredibly dangerous.

Two issues: 1) alarming clunking noise coming from suspension. 2) center command screen froze and then crashed completely (black screen) while driving, which resulted in a loss of controls like turn signals and speed indicator.

In Feb. 2021 I purchased a new 2021 Tesla Model Y. In August I noticed a crack in the glass ceiling originating from the front edge of glass. We made an appt for 10/19 to have it replaced at the S. Seattle Tesla Service Ctr, assuming the repair would be covered under warranty. We brought the car in on Oct 19. The service rep inspected the crack and very quickly determined that the crack was a result of something hitting the ceiling such as a small rock. The rep's eagerness with her response suggested that she was familiar with this issue and was ready to deny warranty coverage. She told us we should make a claim against our auto insurance policy. We countered that we didn't believe anything had hit the ceiling, and even if it had, the glass should not have cracked that easily. Also, we also pointed out that in all the other cars we've owned we have never experienced rocks being spun up from the road hitting the ceiling. The rep still declined. We went ahead with the repair. We searched the internet for other Tesla owners whose ceiling glass had also cracked and found a number of postings on several forums of customers who had the same disappointing experience we had. It is evident that there is some kind of design flaw that results in the ceiling glass cracking easily. We inquired with a class action law firm who informed us that there is a provision in Tesla's standard warranty in which the consumer agrees not to enter into any class action lawsuits against Tesla and requires arbitration to settle disputes.We wanted to bring this issue to your attention attention because we believe Tesla is well aware of a design flaw that results in the cracking of their glass ceilings and is concealing their knowledge of the frequency of this problem.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The Dashboard and yes. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? car display has unexpectedly rebooted while I was driving, my display rebooted. It crashed when my passenger was attempting to read the release notes while I was driving. It was night, and after it rebooted, the part of the screen that shows the car and road flashed white, blinding me while driving. I lost the ability to signal or determine if it's signaling, no speed indicator no anything, not even a signal sound. I couldn't control the windshield wiper, when I attempted to turn on the emergency blinkers, I had no visual or audio confirmation that it was working. this lasted for 1-2 minutes. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? No as the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No

I was driving in cruise control at the posted speed limit of 80mph. The conditions were dry and sunny. Without warning the car braked hard and decelerated from 80mph to 69mph in less than a second. The braking was so violent, my head snapped forward and I almost lost control of the car. This 'phantom' braking occurred other times but it was less sever. The unpredictable nature of the adaptive cruise control and emergency braking has prompted me to disable these so-called safety features.
