Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) – Safety Incident Report: While using the vehicle’s ‘Summon’ feature, the car failed to stop when I released the control button. It continued forward, drove up and over a large curb, struck a signpost, and came to rest with one tire elevated on the curb/grass and the other three tires on the pavement.

He also mentioned that Tesla redesigned this component in newer Model X vehicles to prevent this issue. However, because my car is...

At highway speeds, using autopilot, my car will suddenly and powerfully brake to a full stop unless I intervene. If this happens with traffic behind me, they must brake hard to avoid hitting me. Also the forward collision warning activates when there is no reason. I have many video recordings, of my dash, the events and the road, while this is happening. How do I send video to you?
