2023 TESLA MODEL X Forward Collision Avoidance Automatic Emergency Braking Problems

On Oct 2, 2024 while going to school to pick the kids, when my wife was turning right into a parking lot after slowing, my Tesla Model X plaid car acceralated and went into high speed (plaid mode) hitting a tree at top speed even though brakes were applied. Upon research, this looks like sudden unintended accerelation. The car luckily hit the tree on the passenger side and the front right wheel flew to the back seat and all air bags were deployed. The car was totaled. Miracleously, she had minor external injuries but due to the speed of impact with the tree, she was flung forward and after the CT scan, we found that she had VAD with severe damage to both her neck arteries. She was taken to hospital in an ambulance, had a surgery and still has trauma and medical appointments to fully recover. In Mar 2024,...

After Tesla's review, it was noted that Autopilot was not active at 1.30pm. Tesla can't do anything about this incident, as it is under Beta version and it is the responsibility of the driver to be aware of such situations and should take full control of the vehicle. At that time in this situation, what control I have to take immediate control of when car stopped abruptly. Luckily no vehicles were coming behind and survived second time.

1.Tesla failed to adequately warn us that the 6 sensors in the front and back of the 2023 Model have been removed. Comment from Tesla Collision Center team in Carlsbad: "We both understand the calibration issue won’t be fixed overnight. A program should be in place to educate customers on the change from sensors to cameras." 2. Objects and images in the rear camera are much closer than they appear and the camera sensors do not work properly. Where was this warning when we bought this car? From Jared's Tesla Service report: "There are certain feature limitations which can trigger warning messages and cause some inaccuracies when using this feature. Service Engineering is aware of these issues and is working towards implementing improvements via future firmware updates." 3. As a result of Tesla's failure to warn us, I relied on the rear camera and camera "sensors" and backed into the...

Subject: Urgent ADAS Issue: UI_a114 Error in Teslas with EAP/FSD in East Oahu I'm reporting a critical, location-specific safety concern affecting Teslas with Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-Driving in East Oahu, particularly when heading westbound. This widespread issue, known as error UI_a114, disables all Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) without warning. It impacts essential safety features, such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping, and Emergency Braking, presenting significant risks. Tesla Support in Honolulu acknowledges this as a multi-year issue among East Oahu Tesla owners with EAP/FSD, regardless of activation status. This suggests a software-related problem or environmental interaction unique to this region, necessitating urgent investigation and resolution to ensure driver and public safety. Further details are provided in the attached PDF. Your attention and action on this matter are crucial.

I was driving the car in stop-and-go traffic on a city street. After another stop, the car in front of me started moving. I pressed on the accelerator with the usual force, but my car took off like crazy. I pressed on the breaks, but the car didn't seem to respond to the brake pedal and ran into a car in front of me. Automatic emergency breaking system didn't engage as well. Luckily, nobody was injured. Had there been any pedestrians crossing the street, they would have been badly injured or killed. This uncontrolled response from the car is very dangerous and I cannot trust it anymore. As a result of this accident, the car in front suffered damage in the amount of a few thousand USD, and my Tesla Model X - $40k.

The contact owns a 2023 Tesla Model X. The contact stated that while driving 70 MPH with the cruise control feature activated, the braking system erroneously activated causing the vehicle to abruptly stop in the middle of the highway. During the failure, there were no other vehicles or objects nearby. After shifting into park, the contact was able to restart the vehicle and continued driving. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer was contacted. The manufacturer was not yet notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 4,200.
