2022 TESLA MODEL X Seat Belts Problems

My 2022 Tesla Model X has two recurring safety-critical defects that remain unresolved despite multiple repair attempts. 1. Airbag / Restraint System Failure (RCM2 / OCS Defect): The vehicle frequently misclassifies the front passenger seat. It shows a passenger when the seat is empty and activates passenger seatbelt warnings incorrectly. Recently the vehicle displayed: “Front passenger safety restraint system issue: Service required (RCM2_a064).” Tesla attempted to repair an electrical harness in the seat, but the problem returned. A Tesla technician documented that the seat may still need a new occupancy sensor. Because this affects the Occupant Classification System and airbag deployment logic, it raises potential FMVSS 208 compliance concerns. 2. FSD / GPS Safety Hazard (5 Unsuccessful Repair Attempts): Across five service visits, Tesla attempted to fix GPS drift and unsafe FSD routing. The vehicle still attempts incorrect turns, performs premature lane changes, and misinterprets intersections. One recent incident involved...

The contact owns a 2022 Tesla Model X. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the driver’s side rear passenger’s seat belt failed to release the child occupying the seat. The contact stated that after five minutes the seat belt was released. The contact then stated that while driving at approximately 20 MPH, with the front passenger and the driver’s side rear seats occupied, the restraint system fault for each passenger was displayed. Additionally, the contact stated that on several occasions while driving at various speeds, the messages appeared intermittently while both seats were unoccupied. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that a seat belt module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 2,000.

Seatbelt sometimes will not auto retract and gets stuck with lots of slack. Car is very clean, no blockages and seatbelt doesn’t have any tears or frays

Trying to secure a backless child safety booster seat which has latch tether devices. The Tesla model X 2022 3rd row does not have the latch tether bars. I believe the brand of seat is GoFit Chicco. My 7 year old granddaughter was only restrained with the shoulder lap belt. During a forced rapid deceleration emergency stop she was choked by the seatbelt when the booster seat slid off the seat during rapid deceleration. She was not injured other than a red mark, sorry no photos, and was significantly traumatized from the incident. This booster seat has a clear warning stating the latch system is required and does not have a built in seatbelt channel since it’s backless. The 2nd row seats were in use with two other child safety seats using the latch system which provided ample protection.

I was a passenger in the vehicle. The car was moving forward at 10-15 mph and the auto braking system was activated appropriately when a large truck parked on the side of the street driver's door opened unexpectedly and was in the path of our vehicle. With the sudden deceleration, my upper body flung forward and the force of my weight caused the seat belt anchor on the lower seat to detach completely.

I ordered a new Tesla X on 01/10/2021 and I just received it on 06/03/2022. I can’t believe that the car passed quality inspection (I found that the passenger falcon door can’t close unless I override the door to close from the driver seat and non of the closing bottoms works in addition to safety seat built is not even attached to it seat!! These issues should be fixed on the spot (actually I should not receive $110000 car in with a safety issues and I should get it serviced on the spot but they kept telling me that I have to make an appointment through the tesla App and I have to wait weeks before the fix the safety issues. This is my second tesla and I found that the tesla X quality is much worse than the tesla Y. The Tesla x (vin number is [XXX] ) INFORMATION...

Car is displaying a warning reading “Rear right safety restraint system fault. Service is required.” Same for the left side. I took the vehicle for service and was told that this is a “Known Characteristic of Current Firmware”. Tesla sent me a message stating that “all the hardware components are OK and the alert is caused by a firmware bug at the moment which will be resolved in a future update”. They did not provide any estimates of when this update will be available. They returned me the car without making any statement on whether it is safe to drive, and whether rear passengers would be safe.
