NHTSA Complaint #10981143 — 2016 TESLA MODEL S

I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE TESLA AUTOPILOT CAUSING A NEAR ACCIDENT THAT COULD EASILY HAVE CLAIMED MANY LIVES. HERE IS A NEW THREAD ON A TESLA FORUM: HTTPS://TESLAMOTORSCLUB.COM/TMC/THREADS/SCARY-EXPERIENCE-WITH-AP2-0-AUTOSTEER-ON-THE-HIGHWAY.89874/ THE OWNER WILL ALMOST CERTAINLY NOT BE REPORTING THIS TO NHTSA HIMSELF BECAUSE TESLA HAVE ASSURED HIM THAT ALL IS WELL. OTHER FORUM POSTERS ARE TELLING HIM THAT AUTOPILOT JUST NEEDS MORE TIME TO LEARN. PLEASE ACT NOW BEFORE LIVES ARE LOST DUE TO THIS RECKLESS EXPERIMENT. SNIP: HELLO, I HAVE A 60D WITH AP2- I TRIED USING AUTOSTEER ON THE HIGHWAY LAST MONDAY (3 DAYS AFTER THE UPDATE WAS RELEASED TO MY CAR), AND HAD ONE OF THE WORST/SCARIEST EXPERIENCES I'VE EVER HAD WHILE DRIVING. I WAS DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY AT ~75MPH. TURNED ON AUTOSTEER AND WAS DRIVING ALONG (WITH MY HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL) WHEN I NOTICED IT WASN'T TAKING A LEFT CURVE/TURN ON THE ROAD AND DRIFTING INTO THE ADJACENT LANE. SO I ENGAGED THE STEERING WHEEL TO DEACTIVATE AUTOSTEER AND TO MAKE THE TURN MYSELF. AS SOON AS I DID THIS, ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE. BASICALLY THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT, VEERING ME INCHES FROM THE BARRIER- AND THEN AS I TRIED TO STRAIGHTEN THE WHEEL IT JERKED ME ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT, ACROSS 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC...AND THEN BACK LET TO THE BARRIER, BACK ACROSS TRAFFIC, AND AGAIN 5 OR 6 TIMES. OF COURSE I CALLED TESLA IMMEDIATELY AND THIS IS WHAT I WAS TOLD: 1) THE CAR IS NOT ABLE TO MAKE THAT TURN (A PRETTY MILD CURVE) AT 80MPH- KNOWN ISSUE WITH AP2. 2) THE CAR FUNCTIONED NORMALLY AFTER THAT- ANY/ALL EVENTS FOLLOWING DISENGAGEMENT OF THE AUTOSTEER WERE DUE TO "DRIVER INPUT/ERROR"
