NHTSA Complaint #11376867 — 2020 TESLA MODEL Y

NHTSA IS CONDUCTING INVESTIGATIONS INTO TESLA SUSPENSION BREAKAGES. HERE IS FURTHER EVIDENCE THAT THE BREAKAGES ARE NOT RESTRICTED TO CERTAIN MODELS AND CERTAIN YEARS BUT ARE GENERIC TO ALL TESLAS AND CAUSED BY LOW QUALITY SUSPENSION AND STEERING COMPONENTS. HERE IS A MODEL Y IN THE JUNKYARD: 2020 TESLA MODEL Y LONG RANGE HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLEDETAILS/37686849?ROWNUMBER=3 THE ATTACHED PHOTOGRAPH SHOWS THAT THE BALL JOINT CONNECTING THE STEERING ROD TO THE KNUCKLE HAS SNAPPED IN HALF. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS FAILURES OF TESLA BALL JOINTS WHERE THE STEM HAS SNAPPED AND IT APPEARS THAT THE STEEL STEM HAS HAD A BRITTLE FRACTURE CAUSED BY FAULTY HEAT TREATMENT AND ANNEALING. THERE IS NO IMPACT DAMAGE THAT WOULD ACCOUNT FOR THIS BREAKAGE. IT IS A MATERIAL FAILURE INDICATIVE OF A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM WITH TESLA'S SUPPLIERS AND TESLA'S QUALITY ASSURANCE. THIS COMPLAINT IS FILED IN THE INTEREST OF PUBLIC SAFETY. PLEASE TAKE URGENT ACTION TO PREVENT FURTHER LOSS OF LIFE. THANK YOU KEEF
