| Suspension problems |
The vehicle experienced serious drive control failures on three separate dates: September 21, 2024; October 2, 2024; and July 26, 2025. On each occasion, acceleration was either severely delayed or completely unresponsive, and the vehicle rolled backward when attempting to move forward on an incline. The following warnings appeared on the dashboard: “stability control disabled,” esc (electronic stability control) warning light, and air suspension system warning. These symptoms occurred both while stationary and while driving. The vehicle was brought to Tesla service centers twice—on October 10, 2024, and September 2, 2025. On both occasions, Tesla stated that the issue could not be reproduced and returned the vehicle without performing any repairs. During the second visit, Tesla performed a $275 wheel alignment adjustment. The service report noted that the warning lights “may be restored on next drive. ” I was verbally told that adjusting the alignment might help identify the root cause, but Tesla never explained how this adjustment was related to the actual symptoms. After performing the alignment, I was simply notified that the vehicle was ready for pickup. This kind of propulsion failure and rollback on inclines presents a serious safety risk to the driver, passengers, and other vehicles on the road. The issue remains unresolved and could occur again at any time without warning.
The tire blow up on the freeway while driving with no impact, collision or any warning or any external factors, it’s very well documented all over the internet that Model X Tesla have serious tire problems associated with faulty tire pressure system tpms and in accurate tire reading as well with a car alignment that don’t compensate or adjust for the air suspension height changes that is available within the car settings and that causes a rapid and dangerous uneven tire wear that could lead to a tire failure on the road while driving. Tesla just recently recalling 700,000 cars with tire pressure issues and my car is effected as well because we never received any warning before the blowout. We did inspect the tire and documented everting showing no evidence of any that went through the tire to cause it go flat, the car is 8 month old and everything is fairly new and we should never have to deal with such and event that almost got us killed on the freeway, also since we were forced to exit the freeway for our safety driving on a flat tire that did cause a serious damages to the tire and vehicle with no spare wheel available to get it replaced on the spot to prevent any further damages, the car is not safe to be driven with serious tire pressure and bad alignment that comes from the factory that don’t match the suspension profile selected by the user that puts lots of unnecessary stress on the tire that causes a serious dangerous event to happen anytime. Tesla is refusing to take any responsibility for this issue even though it’s very well documented and we end up with a $4500 bill, something that we never should be responsible for. Also Tesla manager oliver ftankcom suggested that it’s ok to risk our lives staying in the car and not move it after a flat tire so we don’t cause more damages to the car, but we would of been killed on the freeway waiting for 4 hours for a tow truck to show up, so we had no choice but to exit the freeway for safety with a spare tire.
Purchased this vehicle new from Tesla on March 29, 2024. As I got home I hear a pop sound come from underneath the car and the abs warning light came on. The vehicle lost some of the functions like regenerative breaking and cruise control. The suspension was also inoperable. I brought the car in on the first availible service date to get the repair done which took a few days. After repair was completed I went back to pick the car up only to have the same warnings appear on the odometer and lost of functionality again 20 minutes into driving home. I contacted Tesla and they gave me another appointment at a different service center. I then brought the car to the other service center and they corrected the abs and other warning light issue. However, I been experiencing vibration on highways when breaking and regenerative breaking. Since the beginning of ownership. I mentioned it to them but the told me vibrations can be normal with these cars so I endured it ever since until it felt worst after a while. I brought the car in again and they diagnosed it. They recommended changing the rear rotors and brake pads. After picking the car up its still doing the same thing. This costed me $1200 out of pocket. I brought the car in for front end noises and they changed parts under warranty. The noises was gone after the service but a week later I heard the noises again and it worsened. Now they are refusing further repairs and recommended that I take the car to a auto body repair shop.
