This contains new information, a smoking gun, and is associated with NHTSA complaint numbers 11505487, 11505488, and 11505489. NHTSA Recall: 21V-035; Tesla Manufacturer Recall: SB-21-21-001 I was threatened a $35/day charge and tow/impound though no maintenance was performed on my vehicle. I went to pick it up and the vehicle was still suffering from the recalled eMMC issue which causes the screens to blank, freeze, etc. All driving information, safety features, and some exterior safety features are lost - it's a major hazard. This recall has two parts, the first part was a Tesla over the air update, which it pushed to the affected vehicles. I believe in doing this, Tesla has now stated to the NHTSA that the recall was complete. However, the recall has a secondary part "To be specific, Tesla will replace the VCM daughterboard that has the Hynix 8GB eMMC with a VCM daughterboard that has...

This issue most likely plagued our Model X during it's original factory warranty based on the class action, NTHSA inquiry, and NTHSA and Tesla recall for the same issue which affects Model X buil between 2016 and 201. These are the things we have personally experienced 12 times over our short ownership, 6 times these nearly caused accidents - this catastrophic malfunction has occurred (on average) once every 500 miles during our ownership: Primary driving instrument and safety info screen (small screen/driver dash screen) and larger infotainment screen BOTH: Freeze, “lock up” or “go blank” Turn black (an issue known by some drivers as “the black screen of death”) Fail to turn on Repeatedly reboot Display a “touchscreen unresponsive” message Stop working completely Otherwise malfunction These issues generally occurred at the worst possible times, most likely when the deficiently designed computer was over taxed (night, weather, traffic, cold - though...

Since installing the latest update (2021.24.48), my vehicle is suddenly experiencing: * frequent bogus forward collision warnings (several per day) * instrument cluster outages (black screen) * sudden autopilot shutdowns caused by center display communication failures (MCU) Other people with significantly different configurations (e.g. with the eMMC repair done, with autopilot hardware version 1, etc.) have experienced similar failures. This seems to be a very serious software regression that needs to be addressed immediately.

Tesla Full Self Driving FSD is too dangerous for public street experiments. The video evidence is not from my vehicle but mine does not recognize many obstacles that increase the risks of collisions: The YouTube video shows the automatic system failed to recognize the green bollard and even with the quick intervention from a claimed well experienced FSD driver, the car collided with the green bollard. The public should not be forced to be at risk for allowing this automatic system with numerous dangerous behaviors to experiment on the public street. Tesla should have tested this in its closed course by building its own green bollard and then it can crash all it wants but not at the expense of public safety. https://youtu.be/Zl9rM8D3k34
