Consumer Description

I would like to report a safety issue with the Tesla Model Y 2021 about its "phantom braking" behavior in FSD-Beta mode. While driving on I-94 E, I was overtaking a Semi trailer, when suddenly the brakes were deployed and the the speed went from 76 MPH to 63 MPH in the blink of an eye. I was very fortunate that no other car was trailing behind me which would have caused a disastrous accident.
