2016 Tesla Model X experienced electronic parking brake failure with alerts stating ‘parking brake did not release. ’ Tesla is charging for replacement despite known epb defect and recall affecting 2016 Model X vehicles. This is a safety-related braking issue.
Was stopped at a red light behind the car in front of me. I was stopped at a appropriate distance from the car in front of me. I had my right foot on the brake pedal, when the car accelerated on its own. It launched its self into the car ahead of me. I looked down and my foot was still on the brake pedal. None of the air bags inside the car deployed.
Hi, my steering wheel turning very hard even though NHTSA issued the the recall last month but your website says your vehicle is not on recall. Also my rear camara is working still Tesla said needs to be replace again even though Tesla replace in 2023 which is I paid. My autonomy is not working even though I paid $8000 plus $500 tax when I purchase my Model X in 2016 for full self driving/ Tesla doesn't want to honor this to us. Hopefully NHTSA put my vehicle in recall list. Thanks for you help. Best regards.
Just got [xxx] yesterday morning. I have ~350 miles on this version now in ~24 hrs. First time I've ever completely turned off fsd and went back to autopilot only. This release is absolutely 100% dangerous and needs to be pulled and rolled back ASAP observations: 1: does not honor turn only lanes and drives straight through them. 2: constant lane switching no matter what setting it's on. 3: lane changes without using turn signal. Example, in right lane, it fully changes lane to left lane using turn signal, then decides to just go right back to the right lane again without using turn signal cutting off other vehicles. 4: speed issues, it can't decide on speeds. 45mph road. I do like 5mph over. With no other cars around, it will speed up to 55-60 (above max setting) then drop down to 40-43mph. It's all over the [xxx] place! even worse on freeway. So it actively exceeds speed limits, as much as enough to get my license automatically revoked under wisconsin law! 5: redesigned where set speed limit is displayed. No longer shows unless you actively change it. Then it disappears again. Need to constantly fiddle with set speed just to see how crazy it will decide to break the law, or how slow it will go and [xxx] other drivers. 6: rolling stops, had a number of rolling stops today and one where it blew straight through a stop sign. 7: route choices are absolutely alinidine. Seems to prioritize taking the least efficient routes. 8: drives like a bucking bronco with accel and decell. 9: ping pongs within the lane. False emergency braking events. Last release the double stop at stop signs had gotten better. This release they are full back again. It is once again stopping at both sides of the intersection. Vehicle departing lane warnings when driving manually, even when my turn signal is on so I can pull into a parking lot or my own driveway! with the above, there have been no other changes other than firmware update.

I had an interaction with this vehicle on snow/ice packed i70 in colorado, almost to the kansas border. This car passed me, then immediately cut in front of my truck in the right lane and quickly slowed to about 10 mph with no warning. The car then pulled over onto the snow packed shoulder.
The autopilot was engaged and the system failed, it james the breaks hard and it started scraping the body above the tire.
While driving in the carpool lane with my mother in law to work with my wife, the car abruptly activated the brakes while in auto steer mode and necessitated my immediate slamming on the gas to increase my speed to avoid a rear collision.
Car tends to brake in autopilot without having any car in front causing jolt feeling and dangerous scenario for vehicles behind. Suspension work like upper control, half shafts, ball joints, toe and struts been replaced 5 times. One time entire wheel came off.
On several the vehicle suddenly automatically brakes and warns there is an obstacle ahead when there is no such obstacle. Happens often on curved roads but also on straight always or even freeway with no vehicle or obstacle to be seen. Estimate it happens several times a month/a time or two a week.
I was driving my Tesla Model X ev home and there were no problems. When I pulled into the driveway the self driving features accelerated the vehicle causing an accident.
