Consumer Description
On June 3rd I was driving on I-80 heading West towards Chicago. The car was on Auto Pilot (Cruise Control) and traveling at 70 mph. Without any warning or warning lamps/messages the braking system suddenly applied the brakes. I had to quickly apply the accelerator. If a truck or car would have been following me closely they would not have had time to react. I am afraid to use the auto pilot in heavy traffic for fear that I could be rear ended as semis always tailgate in Chicago. I have a service appointment set with Tesla on Monday the 6th of June to have this looked at.
