Consumer Description

While driving the frunk/hood opened while vehicle was in motion. Everything says your not able to drive or opening while in drive. My wife had just used it shopping. Drove 300 yards with No warnings. Then stopped at a light then when she was accelerating it opened and broke windshield, hood and hinges, scratched left fender inside. She was able to pull over without cause anymore damage to her or anyone else. I then meet her and I was able to drive the car with the hood open and damaged. I then removed the hood completely in order to drive it home all while no safety warnings going off. Tesla has had it since 6/3 and no determination of why or fault. $4600 estimate for repairs Still not fixed
