NHTSA Complaint #11509183 — 2017 TESLA MODEL 3

Feb 25 around 4pm PT we were driving north on US Hwy 101 using the basic cruise control feature of our Model 3. Based on our settings I believe this would be considered adaptive cruise control, but I'm not sure. Enhanced Auto-Pilot was not in use. On a largely open highway, in particular with no one in front of us, and thankfully, no one close behind us, the car suddenly started to lose speed, not brake, just lose speed. I pressed the right-hand button on the steering wheel and called out "report bug" so there should be an incident record with Tesla I believe. After letting it slow a bit, I pressed the accelerator to resume and it resumed speed ok. I have used the "report bug" several times on this issue so there should be records of other incidents. Feb. 26, around noon. Traveling on Central Expwy at 55, the car suddenly slowed to about 25 in the space of a few seconds before re-accelerating. No visible object to cause this. Thankfully, no one behind me which is why I let it drop speed to see what it would do. Again, this was using CC, not EAP. This first happened on Jan 14, '22 using cc on s-bd US 101. I have video of this, but it's 19MB, so can't upload. I took to Tesla service and they concluded it was moisture obstructing camera view. Made no sense then as you would it expect to occur constantly, not intermittently. Presumably if this was a vacuum issue, they would have checked that. I think the 3 works CC by wire.
