Consumer Description
During my driving shift on Lyft my first ride was right next to me at the medical clinic when I accepted the ride but Lyft sent me 10 minutes away to park in the middle of a median facing a memorial for a car crash victim (while playing Stan by Eminem about a fan being killed in a car accident after no one gets his letters(On Tesla Radio which has been proven to be hackable and I have reported to NHTSA before)). She gives me directions; I accept the ride then drive 10 minutes back to where I accepted the ride in the first place. The gps location for Lyft is over a mile off, after a couple minutes of scanning parking lots for people I've never met I find them at the health clinic (Lyft had deleted her directions she sent me so I was going off memory from the phone call). We start talking and it turns out they are currently in a lawsuit against Lyft. On the way to their destination (which was also wrong by several miles and required their directions) the Husband and I start noticing really aggressive drivers around us then all of a sudden the car in front of us hit the brakes short notice and zero of the cars collision warnings and safety precautions worked because there is clearly no audible sound. I have the sounds enabled I also have since day 1 because that's why I bought this car, for safety. Luckily for me I said nothing until the passenger mentioned that they braked too hard, I did a good job reacting and they agree there was no collision warning once I explained to them that the Tesla is supposed to do that but it rarely works when it should and goes off all the time for overly dramatic reasons. It's like Elon himself hacked my car and made it a clown car as described by himself in his own tweets. Upon the riders request I have released the entire recording to them via cloud server for use only with my written consent. They will be forwarding it to their attorney who is currently representing them so I would think twice about using 'kid gloves' on Tesla now on
