NHTSA Complaint #11376642 — 2016 TESLA MODEL X

I HAVE BEEN NOTICING MY 2016 TESLA MODEL X 90D HAS BEEN MAKING A STRANGE RATTLING NOISE FROM THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE/SUSPENSION AREA. IT ONLY MAKES THAT NOISE AT LOWER SPEEDS OF 30MPH OR LESS. WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE ON OCTOBER 27, 2020, THEY SHARED THAT IT WAS LIKELY THE AIR SUSPENSION SYSTEM THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, BUT THEY WEREN'T SURE AND THEY RECOMMENDED WE NOT REPLACE IT UNTIL IT FAILED (I.E. WOULD NO LONGER ADAPT TO GOING UP OR DOWN WHEN WE PULLED INTO OUR DRIVE-WAY, ETC...). AFTER READING THE INVESTIGATION THAT WAS RECENTLY ANNOUNCED, I THOUGHT IT WAS GOOD TO SHARE THIS INFORMATION WITH YOUR TEAM AS IT COULD BE A SIMILAR ISSUE. THE NOISE, WHICH SOUNDS LIKE A RATTLING OR SOMETHING IS LOOSE, BEGAN AROUND MAY OF 2020. IN ADDITION, I HAVE FOUND IT VERY ODD THAT I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE TIRES WITHIN ONE YEAR OF PURCHASING THEM BECAUSE THE INSIDE AREA OF BOTH REAR TIRES HAVE WORN DOWN COMPLETELY TO THE TREAD. DURING MY LAST SERVICE ON OCTOBER 27, 2020, THEY SAID THEY WOULD ADJUST THE REAR SUSPENSION SO THE TIRES WOULD NOT WEAR OUT LIKE THAT AS IT WAS LIKELY DUE TO AN ALIGNMENT/CAMBER ISSUE WITH HOW THE SUSPENSION WAS RIDING.
