On [XXX], while operating my 2024 Tesla Model Y in Full Self-Driving (Supervised) mode, the vehicle experienced an Uncommanded Steering Input leading to a collision. The vehicle was traveling at a very low speed of approximately 5 mph in a clear, simple environment. Despite this walking pace, the FSD software failed to identify a visible concrete curb and initiated a sudden, sharp turn directly into the obstacle without any prior warning or driver input. The fact that the system executed such a violent and erroneous maneuver at 5 mph indicates a fundamental failure in the Neural Network's object detection and path planning logic. If this logic failure had occurred at higher speeds or near pedestrians, the results could have been catastrophic. The local Tesla Service Center (Watertown, MA) refused to conduct a physical inspection or a log review of the steering torque. They issued a Repair Estimate of $1,217.26 while...
I am reporting a potential safety defect related to premature rear tire wear on my 2024 Tesla Model Y Performance At 15,482 miles, on May 2, 2025, Tesla’s Paramus, NJ Service Center confirmed an alignment issue and performed a four-wheel alignment. At the same visit, they replaced both rear tires with Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4 275/35R21 103W XL and sold me a Tire Protection Plan for those tires (Tesla invoice #XXX). tesla_invoiceXXX The vehicle now has 24,460 miles. The rear tires have worn out in less than 10,000 miles and about 7 months since the alignment and replacement. The tread wear is excessive and uneven compared with the front tires, and is inconsistent with the normal expected life (around 20,000+ miles) of these tires. This appears to indicate an ongoing alignment or suspension issue that is causing abnormal rear tire wear. Rapid rear tire wear on this vehicle could...
This vehicle is experiencing vibration at highway speeds. it was reported several times to the dealer without resolve. The upon the 3rd trip to the dealer, they are now saying that somehow all 4 rims are bent. None of the wheels have any visible indication of an impact, scratch or damage to the tires. As the only driver to this vehicle, i know firsthand it has not experienced any impact in way of significant bumps, pothole or otherwise. This is diagnosis is of serious concerns if the vehicles wheels will hold up under normal driving and if it were to experience a bump such as one found on a highway paving ridge during construction would it break or become uncontrollable.
The rims on this car are made so cheap it’s no way I should have this many crack and bent rims I been thru a total of 5 rims already and Tesla don’t offer u the rim protection until u replace a rim no matter how slow I drive my rim always seen to get cracked or bent on rail road tracks or even driving over a speed bump or going thru car wash
I purchased a 2024 TESLA model Y and received delivery of my Tesla vehicle on [XXX], at 4 PM EST. Upon receiving the vehicle, I noticed manufacturing defects on the tail lights, which I reported to Tesla Support immediately and scheduled an appointment on September 29. Unfortunately, no appointments were available at that time, and my service date was postponed to October 28, 2024. On [XXX], while traveling at low speeds, the rear passenger tire of my vehicle unexpectedly exploded. They are the factory-installed Continental tires 255/45/19. The car had to be towed to Tesla in Coral Gables, where they installed a temporary tire and quoted me $517.35 for replacement—despite the vehicle being less than a month old. Since delivery, I’ve also observed that my tail lights have accumulated water, indicating a potential safety hazard and manufacturing defect. I have contacted Tesla Support on multiple occasions, but they have not...
I have had this car since May 2024 and the current mileage on the vehicle is 7,130 miles. In the past few weeks, I have had to completely replace both rear OEM aluminum alloy wheels due to cracks caused by normal road driving, which caused both rear tires to go flat. Per Tesla, this costly replacement is not covered under their warranty. I am now learning that this is a common issue with these particular wheels on this particular model (Model Y Performance). It appears the aluminum alloy wheels are simply not sturdy enough to bear the weight of the vehicle and the required tires simply do not provide sufficient cushioning to prevent wheel cracks resulting from normal wear and tear/road driving. Many customers have had to replace the OEM wheels with aftermarket wheels made of forged steel. These customers report zero issues with the much stronger wheels. This appears...
My Tesla (dark gray) was t-boned by a 2015 Hyundai (white) while it was passing the intersection on green light. The Hyundai hit my car when it tried to turn right on red light. My car was running at around 25 mph at that moment. About one second before the accident, my car's front collision warning went off, but everything was too late; the Hyundai's left front bumper hit my car. The crash did not cause any serious damage on the white Hyundai; as you can see in the photo, it barely got any dents, except its left front headlight cap was broken. The incident created small dents on my car's right fender panel and front right door. However, even though my car's front right wheel was not directly hit, it fell off during the accident. If my car was running at a high speed, it would have rolled over...
