Consumer Description

During two hour trip I experienced at least five incidents of so called Fantom Braking, when car engaged in Autopilot or adaptive cruise control brakes suddenly for no apparent reason. At least two time during this trip, the braking was really hard. This is very dangerous conditions and could result in serious accident if someone closely follow the vehicle. I had to keep my foot on the gas pedal during this trip to act if necessary. I have experienced these conditions before and reported it to Tesla. They basically ignored this complaint.
