On 1/12/24 at 12:55pm my 2020 Tesla Model X long range plus suddenly started braking while on the highway. I was driving 75mph to san diego from arizona. There was no vehicles around or in front while using the cruise control. This also has been an issue with our 2023 Tesla model y and previous model 3 while driving to las vegas at 70mph. I really think this is safety concern. Luckily there was vehicles behind us with all incidents that took place. I recently took the 2020 Tesla Model X on 1/19/24 for the issue and the technician found no issues while driving it.
Many hard braking incidents ignores posted speed limits been close to being rear ended by following cars.
I have driven this vehicle approximately 28,000 miles. I am the original (and only) owner. When using the cruise control the car will break suddenly and aggressively for no apparent reason on the open road. This has happened more than a dozen times. I cannot say what percentage of my driving is done with adaptive cruise control functioning but I would suspect well less than 30% of the 28k miles. On several occasions I surmise it my be related to oncoming vehicles in their normal lane. Fortunately, these episodes have not resulted in any collisions to date.
Repeatedly, I have had my car brake harshly when travelling anywhere from 30-55 mph while using adaptive cruise control. There is nevere anything in the road or a car anywhere nearby to warrant a dramatic braking. The decelertion is harsh and alomst caused someone behind me to hit me on 2 occasions. I have repeatedly told Tesla about this and mostly gotten a nebulous response about "hardware" or 'software" issues and that they are working on it. This is dangerous and hurts when it unexpectedly happens!!.
Sudden acceleration.
Recurring phantom braking every drive.
When I'm using the driving assistance on the highway, and I'm doing like 60 or 70 mph, all of a sudden the car brakes to 45mph if it (falsely) thinks we are in a construction zone I believe. I have almost gotten in 3 accidents because the car suddenly brakes hard on its own, without me braking.
The contact owns a 2020 Tesla Model X. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds with the cruise control or autopilot functions activated, the brakes inadvertently engaged, causing the vehicle to come to an abrupt stop. The vehicle experienced phantom braking. The contact stated that after the full self-driving beta program was installed, the failure occurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The dealer transferred the contact to the tech department. The tech department informed the contact that they would repair the failure with an over-the-air software update. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 46,000. The contact owns a 2020 Tesla Model X.

While on autopilot or cruise control, the car would suddenly and abruptly slam on the brakes for no reason. There's no traffic or objects to avoid. It was very startling because it could have caused a massive rear-end collision had I not intervened to cancel the autopilot and speed up again. . Because of this, I have stopped using the autopilot feature altogether. I cannot trust it will work properly. I have mentioned it to Tesla and they simply say the software update will solve it. It has not!.
We received the full self-driving beta software from Tesla this week. How NHTSA has permitted Tesla to enable this software for use on public streets is mind-blowing. It is that dangerous! do the public a favor and go drive a Tesla with fsd enabled. You can read my full comments on our blog: https://nerdvittles.
