Consumer Description
While my car was in full self-driving mode, it attempted to make a lane change to the right which almost caused a crash into another vehicle. I had to manually take control of the car. On November 18, 2024, I reported this to the Tesla Service Center in Arlington, VA. Without even inspecting the car, Tesla concluded there was no safety concern and therefore, they declined my request to expeditiously inspect and repair the car. This vehicle has had several problems related to the autopilot system and other systems, and Tesla agreed in August 2024 to take back the vehicle after I filed a lawsuit under my state's lemon laws. I still have the vehicle as I'm still waiting for Tesla to provide instructions on how/when/where to return the car. I am documenting this incident to showcase all steps I took to remedy the defective product Tesla sold me in case the defect results in injury or damage. In the meantime, I have contacted me attorney and requested they send a demand letter to have Tesla make the repairs ASAP since there are clear and present dangers not yet resolved.
