2018 TESLA MODEL 3 Suspension Problems

HERE IS A TESLA MODEL 3 IN THE SALVAGE AUCTION YARD. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=32965341&ROWNUMBER=21&LOADRECENT=TRUE IT HAS SOME COLLISION DAMAGE AT THE REAR, PERHAPS BECAUSE IT STOPPED UNEXPECTEDLY WHEN THE FRONT SUSPENSION FELL TO BITS. THE PHOTOGRAPHS SHOW THAT THE UPPER BALL JOINT HAS POPPED APART AND THAT THE STEMS OF BOTH LOWER BALL JOINTS HAVE SNAPPED. TESLA IS USING DANGEROUS LOW QUALITY COMPONENTS IN THESE CARS. THE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THIS WRECK PROVE THIS. PLEASE HAVE THIS WRECK INSPECTED. IF YOU WISH TO SEE MANY MORE EXAMPLES OF MODEL 3 SUSPENSION PARTS THAT HAVE SNAPPED LIKE A PRETZEL THEN THERE IS A COLLECTION OF THEM HERE HTTPS://WWW.FLICKR.COM/PHOTOS/136377865@N05/ALBUMS/72157701887554265 PLEASE NOTE..I AM NOT A TESLA OWNER, JUST A CONCERNED CITIZEN. DATE OF INCIDENT IS AN APPROXIMATION.

THIS IS A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE WEAKNESS OF THE SUSPENSION BALL JOINTS IN ALL MODELS OF TESLA CARS. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR AS JUST ONE EGREGIOUS EXAMPLE AND I CAN SHOW YOU MANY MORE THAT HAVE FAILED IN THE SAME WAY. I WILL FOLLOW THIS UP BY FILING A SEPARATE COMPLAINT ON A MODEL X WHICH HAS THE EXACT SAME FAILURE. HERE IS THE MODEL 3 HTTPS://WWW.COPART.COM/LOT/42908029/PHOTOS NO AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN DEPLOYED IN THIS CAR. THERE IS NO COLLISION DAMAGE THAT WOULD JUSTIFY THE BALL JOINTS HAVING SNAPPED IN THIS WAY. THIS CAR IS STILL AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION. PLEASE DO THIS. THANK YOU...CONCERNED CITIZEN.

THIS MODEL 3 IS IN THE SALVAGE AUCTION SITE. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=32947552&ROWNUMBER=22&LOADRECENT=TRUE IT HAS NOT BEEN IN A CRASH. NO AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN DEPLOYED AND THERE IS NEGLIGIBLE FRONT END DAMAGE. THE SUSPENSION HAS SNAPPED OFF. THE ATTACHED PHOTOGRAPHS SHOW THAT THE ALLOY SUSPENSION ARMS HAVE CRACKED IN HALF. THIS HAS THE APPEARANCE OF BRITTLE CRACK FAILURE CAUSED BY A CASTING DEFECT. IT IS A CERTAINTY THAT THIS IS NOT A ONE OFF INCIDENCE. THIS POINTS TO BAD MANUFACTURING, BAD QUALITY CONTROL, AND BAD TESTING. THIS IS ON TOP OF THE REPEATED FAILURES IN MODEL S & MODEL X SUSPENSION PARTS. TESLA APPEARS TO BE A SICK COMPANY WITH ZERO REGARD FOR PUBLIC SAFETY. PLEASE TAKE ACTION TO PREVENT NEEDLESS DEATHS AND INJURY.

HERE IS A TESLA MODEL 3 IN THE JUNKYARD HTTPS://WWW.COPART.COM/LOT/47780498 IT HAS NOT BEEN ANY MAJOR COLLISION. THE SUSPENSION ON THE RH SIDE IS BROKEN. THE TOP WISHBONE WHICH IS MADE OUT OF (CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?) PLASTIC.HAS SNAPPED OFF. THIS NOT GOOD. PLEASE BE SO KIND AS TO INVESTIGATE. THANK YOU. CONCERNED CITIZEN ETC.TC.

HERE IS ANOTHER MODEL 3 IN THE JUNKYARD WITH THE SAME OLD SNAPPED SPARROW LEG SUSPENSION. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=29342528&ROWNUMBER=85&LOADRECENT=TRUE ALL OF THE AIR-BAGS HAVE GONE OFF BUT THERE IS NO SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE EXCEPT FOR THE SNAPPED SUSPENSION. IT IS QUITE LIKELY THAT AFTER THE WHEEL WENT WHOMPY THE CAR SPUN AROUND AND DECELERATED RAPIDLY SETTING OFF THE AIRBAGS. THERE ARE NOW FOUR REPORTED INSTANCES OF MODEL 3 SNAPPED SUSPENSIONS AND YET NOT A SINGLE OWNER HAS FILED A COMPLAINT. I WONDER WHY.... PERHAPS TESLA HAS THEM SIGN AN NDA? PLEASE INVESTIGATE. PLEASE PLEASE INVESTIGATE. THANK YOU. PERPLEXED CITIZEN.

HERE IS A TESLA MODEL 3 IN THE JUNKYARD. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=29367271&ROWNUMBER=103&LOADRECENT=TRUE IT HAS NOT BEEN IN A COLLISION. NO AIR-BAGS HAVE DEPLOYED AND THERE IS NO IMPACT DAMAGE. THE FRONT WHEEL AND SUSPENSION HAVE SIMPLY SNAPPED OFF LIKE A SPARROWS LEG. THE TOP BALL JOINT HAS POPPED APART. THE LOWER BALL JOINT STEMS HAVE SNAPPED OFF. THE MODEL 3 IS NO BETTER THAN THE MODEL S AND MODEL X IN THIS REGARD. THE SUSPENSION COMPONENTS ARE TOO WEAK FOR THE JOB AND THE 2 PIECE BALL-JOINT STEMS ARE EASILY SNAPPED OFF. THERE HAVE ALREADY BEEN AT LEAST FOUR SIMILAR CASES OF SNAPPED MODEL 3 SUSPENSIONS. I WILL BE FILING ANOTHER ONE STRAIGHT AFTER THIS. THANK YOU. VERY CONCERNED CITIZEN. DATE OF INCIDENT IS AN APPROXIMATION.

HERE IS ANOTHER MODEL 3 IN THE JUNKYARD WITH A THE FRONT SUSPENSION FALLEN OFF. THIS CAR HAS ONLY TRAVELLED 1000 MILES SINCE IT WAS FACTORY GATED. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=29216371&ROWNUMBER=83&LOADRECENT=TRUE NO CRASH DAMAGE. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THE SUSPENSION BOLTS HAVE SNAPPED AGAIN. I HAVE SEARCHED YOUR DATABASE AND IT SEEMS THAT NEITHER THE VEHICLE OWNER NOR TESLA HAVE BOTHERED TO FILE A REPORT OF THIS ALARMING FAILURE. YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHS THAT THE BOLTS HAVE SNAPPED THIS IS AN INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. PLEASE TAKE ACTION TO PREVENT LOSS OF LIFE. THANK YOU. CONCERNED CITIZEN WHO REFUSES TO MIND HIS OWN BUSINESS.

HERE IS A TESLA MODEL 3 IN THE JUNKYARD. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=29158128&ROWNUMBER=50&LOADRECENT=TRUE IT HAS NOT BEEN IN A COLLISION. NO AIRBAGS HAVE DEPLOYED AND THERE IS NO SIGN OF IMPACT DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. THE FRONT RIGHT HAND SUSPENSION HAS COMPLETELY SNAPPED OFF AND THE UNDAMAGED WHEEL IS LYING BESIDE THE CAR. SINCE THE WHEEL IS UNDAMAGED THIS FAILURE CANNOT HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY RUNNING INTO A POTHOLE OR EVEN A HERD OF WILDERBEEST SWEEPING MAJESTICALLY ACROSS THE FREEWAY. THE BOLTS HAVE SNAPPED. IT SEEMS LIKELY THAT TESLA IS USING THE SAME FRAGILE 2 PIECE BOLTS THAT HAVE BEEN SNAPPING ON THE MODEL S AND MODEL X. A PHOTOGRAPH OF THE BROKEN MODEL 3 AND A PHOTOGRAPH OF A SNAPPED BOLT FROM A MODEL S IS ATTACHED WITH THIS COMPLAINT. PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM NOT THE OWNER, I AM A CONCERNED CITIZEN ACTING IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST. DATE OF INCIDENT AND...

HERE IS A MODEL 3 IN THE JUNKYARD HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=28782924&ROWNUMBER=52&LOADRECENT=TRUE THE LOWER BALL-JOINTS ON THE FRONT SUSPENSION HAVE SNAPPED. THIS IS VERY LIKELY THE CAUSE OF THE ROLLOVER AND NOT THE RESULT OF IT. A PHOTOGRAPH IS ATTACHED OF ANOTHER MODEL 3 (THE RED ONE) WHICH HAS THE SAME SNAPPED OFF BALL-JOINTS. THESE BALL JOINTS APPEAR TO BE THE SAME RIDICULOUSLY WEAK TWO PART FRICTION WELDED BALL JOINTS THAT ARE USED ON THE MODEL S AND MODEL X. PHOTOGRAPH OF A SNAPPED BALL JOINT IS ALSO INCULDED IN THIS SUBMISSION. THANK YOU. DRIVE SAFELY AND WATCH OUT FOR TESLAS.
