Consumer Description

Vehicle: 2022 Tesla Model Y VIN: [XXX] Mileage: 85,000 Complaint Description (Copy & Paste): I am filing this complaint due to serious and ongoing safety-related defects with my 2022 Tesla Model Y that remain unresolved despite multiple service visits. The vehicle experiences shuddering and vibration during regenerative braking, especially when driving downhill. In addition, the braking behavior is unpredictable, which compromises vehicle control and creates a risk of loss of control while driving. These issues occur during normal driving conditions and present a significant safety hazard to myself, my passengers, and other road users. I have taken the vehicle to Tesla for service three separate times for this issue. Despite these visits, the Tesla service department has stated they are unable to fix the problem, and the safety concern remains unresolved. I’m being having this issues since I bought the car new. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
