NHTSA Complaint #11404484 — 2021 TESLA MODEL S

WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY NEW TESLA S (APPROXIMATELY 1000 MILES) ON A COUNTY ROAD, THE LEFT FRONT TIRE SUDDENLY CAME OFF MY CAR, WENT ACROSS A ROAD WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND HIT A FENCE AT A LOCAL RESIDENCE. THERE WAS SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO THE LEFT FRONT AREA OF THE CAR WHICH CAN BE SEEN FROM THE ATTACHED PHOTOS.FORTUNATELY, I HAD JUST EXITED THE GARDEN STATE PARKWAY WHERE I WAS DOING 65 MPH. I HAVE LITTLE DOUBT THAT IF THE ACCIDENT HAD OCCURRED 10 MINUTES EARLIER, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN SEVERAL FATALITIES INCLUDING ME. ALTHOUGH TESLA CLAIMS TO PRODUCE LUXURY VEHICLES, IT LEASED ME A CAR THAT WAS INHERENTLY DANGEROUS AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A FATAL ACCIDENT.
