Consumer Description
8 minutes after leaving the dealership while driving along a highway, car displayed error message, "Acceleration and Top Speed Reduced" and began automatically slowing down and came to a complete stop. Fortunately I was able to pull over to the side next to a highway barrier but it was still a dangerous situation as cars and trucks were passing by at high speed. Car would not respond and not drive, even after turning off and on car and computer system several times. Police had to be dispatched to block lane and vehicle had to be towed away from side of highway. No explanation or help provided by Tesla as to why the brand new car suddenly stopped working.
