All the road safety features stopped working all of a sudden. Auto lights. Defaulted to high beams. Lane departure stopped, cruise control stopped, forward emergency braking stopped, rear cross traffic stopped, blind stopped stopped, and other safety’s I am not sure of.

While exiting the Chick-fil-A drive-thru lane, I lightly pressed the accelerator to move into the next lane. Suddenly, the vehicle jerked forward very quickly, as if I had floored the accelerator. At the same time, the display showed "Emergency Braking in Progress." It felt as though the truck briefly braked and then rapidly released, causing unexpected acceleration. No collision occurred, but it was startling and very scary.

On May 15, 2025, at around 11:30 AM, my Tesla was involved in a collision while Full Self-Driving (FSD) was engaged. The incident occurred at the Tesla West Covina Dealership. The vehicle struck a barrier wall without any collision warning, suggesting both a failure of the sensors and FSD system. After the incident, Tesla staff directed me to their West Covina Service Center. A service advisor reviewed the dashcam footage with me and acknowledged the crash appeared to result from FSD malfunction. I was told Tesla will cover the repair. However, when I returned on May 26, 2025, I was informed that the dashcam footage was no longer available. I did not delete it and suspect it may have been removed by Tesla personnel. They also then claimed they will not cover any repairs. I have written to their legal department to formally request the video footage and any other...

I was driving [XXX] going through Saint Paul and the truck sped up and became uncontrollable. I started braking as fast as I could and caused it to rear end into another vehicle. I’ve tried to contact Tesla about this, and they have not responded to me. I was told the engineering team would get back to me about the possible cause of the accident, but never heard back and they could not provide me any of the vehicle data or video which they told me in the service center. They would be able to find that when they diagnosed it, they did fix the vehicle and I ended up selling it due to not being too excited about driving ever again.

#11665678 | Crash
I am writing to report an incident that occurred on [XXX] [XXX] while my Cybertruck was operating in Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode. While driving on [XXX] Brooklyn NY with no other moving traffic present, my Cybertruck did not detect a vehicle that was parked improperly—sticking out too far into the lane. The FSD system failed to adjust its path accordingly and struck the side view mirror of my vehicle, causing significant damage to the mirror glass and housing. I understand that FSD is a driver-assist feature that requires supervision, and I was attentive during the drive. However, the clearance of side view mirrors from the driver’s perspective is extremely difficult to judge at street level, and I believe stationary obstacles of this nature should be reliably detected and avoided by the FSD system. This type of incident raises concerns about the performance of FSD in handling stationary objects, especially when...

On [XXX], at approximately around [XXX], an incident occurred involving the Auto Park feature of a Tesla vehicle in a quiet parking lot. The conditions were clear, with no adverse weather, obstacles, or surrounding vehicles. The Auto Park function was engaged, and the vehicle reversed and moved forward as expected. However, it failed to stop and collided with a yellow pole directly in front. The front camera feed was visible on the screen, but the vehicle did not detect or recognize the pole, and no collision alert was issued. The incident occurred too quickly to allow manual intervention via the brake pedal. The collision resulted in minor front bumper damage, with repair costs estimated at over $1,500. All incident details and vehicle data have been provided to Tesla for investigation. And they rejected to provide front plastic bumper replacement.
