Consumer Description

Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to report a serious safety incident involving my Tesla Model Y (2026) licence plate : [XXX] that occurred on [XXX], at approximately [XXX]. While attempting to slowly park in a parking lot located at [XXX], East [XXX] and forcefully accelerated forward. I was performing a low-speed parking maneuver and did not intentionally press the accelerator. The vehicle suddenly moved forward with very strong power and high speed, making it extremely difficult to control the steering wheel. If there had not been bushes directly in front of the vehicle, the car would have continued accelerating forward and could have caused a serious accident involving property damage or personal injury. This was a very dangerous and alarming situation. Despite my attempts to stop and control the vehicle, it continued to move forward rapidly. As a result of this unexpected behavior, the vehicle struck bushes within the parking lot. The vehicle’s response was sudden, abnormal, and completely inconsistent with a normal parking situation. This incident raises serious safety concerns regarding the vehicle’s behavior during low-speed parking and a possible malfunction of the automatic or driver-assistance systems. I am submitting this report for official documentation, investigation, and appropriate follow-up. Please let me know if additional information, vehicle data, or a formal inspection is required. Sincerely, [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] XXX [XXX] n [XXX] [XXX] E FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
