Consumer Description

On February, Friday 17th, 2023 around 10:15pm on 287 exit ramp towards rte 78 west , a truck with a flatbed suddenly went from right to left but the car failed to detect that and we almost collide into the back of it. Collision was avoided only by driver reaction. All collision warning systems failed to detect the situation. Still this is the same behavior we have seen since we bought the car. There is no awareness of close proximity objects. Tesla is acknowledging that critical ultrasound sensors were removed from the car.
