NHTSA Complaint #10971041 — 2016 TESLA MODEL X

I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT DUE TO THE FACT THAT TESLA OWNERS ARE FAILING TO REPORT SIMILAR SUSPENSION FAILURES THEMSELVES DUE TO BRAND LOYALTY AND INVESTMENT IN TESLA. HERE IS A NEW THREAD ON WHICH SEVERAL OWNERS REPORT SNAPPED SUSPENSION COMPONENTS. HTTPS://WWW.REDDIT.COM/R/TESLAMOTORS/COMMENTS/63DTWS/TESLA_MODEL_X_SUSPENSION_QUALITY_ISSUE_PASSENGER/ SNIP: I WAS DRIVING MY MODEL X P90D ON A LOCAL STREET 2 DAYS AGO. WHEN I MADE A V-SHAPED RIGHT TURN AT THE SLOW SPEED OF 5 TO 10 MI/H, I HIT A VERY SMALL POTHOLE AND HEARD A BANG. THERE WAS NO VIBRATION AT ALL, SO I DIDN'T PAY ATTENTION AT THE TIME. THE CAR WAS DRIVING PERFECTLY NORMAL FOR THE REST OF THAT DAY. I DROVE ANOTHER 40 MILES OR SO, INCLUDING 20 MILES ON THE HIGHWAY WITH 60+ MI/H SPEED. THE ISSUE CAME UP THE NEXT DAY WHEN I WAS PULLING MY CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE. I HEARD ANOTHER BANG WHEN THE CAR WAS BACKING, AND MY STEERING BECAME STIFF. THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE ANYMORE. THEN THE "SUSPENSION NEEDS SERVICE" WARNING CAME OUT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I CAME OUT AND CHECK THE CAR, FOUND OUT THAT THE ENTIRE FRONT WHEEL SNAPPED OFF! THE POTHOLE WASN'T THAT BIG, IT'S ONLY 2 INCHES DEEP, MAX. THERE WAS NO REPEATED HARD IMPACTS. I WOULDN'T EVEN SAY THAT PARTICULAR IMPACT WAS HARD! I ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 2 MONTHS AND HAD ONLY 1000 MILES ON IT. PHOTOS ARE ATTACHED. PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION TO CONTINUE. A RECALL IS LONG OVERDUE. THANK YOU. CONCERNED CITIZEN WHO SHARES THE ROADS WITH THESE TESLAS.
