Consumer Description
My model Y tesla deployed the emergency brake system while I was driving the vehicle. There wasn’t any vehicle or anything in the way for my tesla to do the emergency brake. I did get whiplash from the incident and been experiencing neck and shoulder pain. Lucky I was able to get an appointment to service my Tesla the next morning but at this moment they haven’t given me any diagnostic. My Tesla did have a message related to the camera that showed up like 5-10 minutes prior to the incident but the warning message disappeared after a few seconds.
