general problems of the 2024 Tesla Model Y - part 2

Ap4 computer failure has led to navigation, cameras, blind spot monitoring, lane departure and other systems being inoperable. Tesla has stated they don’t have the parts to fix and have pushed out my service repair time twice already. Issue reported on December 4th, since then no time table for repair has been given. Tesla keeps stating the car is operable, leaving out the facts it’s dangerous to drive due to small rear windows and blind spots based on the cars design to work with operable cameras that give the drive clearer angles to view.

All cameras not working with latest software update - told need new ap4 computer on 2024 Model Y which is 2 months old. Tesla service advisor states - car is totally safe to drive with just mirrors till appointment in few weeks. No backup camera, navigation, battery life dying faster. It seems like a liability to me to drive this way and very negligent to me.

Components failing - reported as central computer. This made the vehicle turn signals and backup cameras fail as critical components. These two elements were/are completely non-functional. Additional less critical safety functions that have been disabled include blind spot monitoring and cameras, both forward and reverse emergency braking, and pedestrian alerts. My safety was put at-risk due to camera failures while driving and backing out of parking spaces. These vehicles are designed with poor and minimal visibility due to their cameras compensating for visibility shortcomings. You cannot adequately see proximity to other vehicles or pedestrians when cameras are not active. This particular impacts reversing when backing in and out of parking spots since the rear windshield is so small and poorly angled. Drivers have reported that the cameras for them are failing mid-drive leading them to not know where other vehicles were next to them and making unsafe lane changes thinking their warning systems were active. The vehicle component has not been inspected by anyone as there was thankfully no actually accident or incident due to the failure. Tesla has not inspected the vehicle due to no availability for 3+ weeks and they will not consider human contact to expedite review. There are now 100s of community reports of the same defect on online communities all showing failures on same-day or within 24 hours of each other. There were no warnings prior to the failure. The symptoms simply stopped working. It required a phone call to Tesla support to even receive an accurate error code. Tesla is claiming a "short" in the main computer system of the vehicle. This occurred for myself and dozens of others all within several hours of each other in the early morning hours of Friday November 29th 2024. Suspicion is that that this was due to a software update from Tesla.

I noticed that now Tesla uses windshield mounted cameras for everything in front of car including fsd and forward collision. My Model Y was made in fremont, California. Problem is windshield glass is not cleaned before assembly to car. Either not a prescribed step by Tesla during assembly or overlooked by assembly workers. I noticed after I picked up my new Model Y from Tesla that there is haze and layer of residue on windshield glass. As if glass are sitting in bulk in factory and assembled to car without cleaning. I was able to clean windshield inside with glass cleaner and microfiber cloth. Problem is windshield haze and layer of residue cannot come out of front facing camera module. This is causing all functions to degrade that rely on these windshield mounted cameras. I get random "one of cameras occulted" error during full self driving fsd. Car cuts out during summon. Haze can be seen on app cameras during summon, while rear camera and fender cameras show clear view. This will get worse with winter now as fog also sets on windshield. Cleaning windshield glass behind camera module requires professional disassembly. Maybe it only affects Model Y made in fremont, CA or more.

Subject: urgent safety concern and request for immediate resolution – cracked sunroof on Tesla Model Y 2024 to whom it may concern, my name is [xxx] , a united states citizen and resident of florida. I am writing to formally express my deep concern and dissatisfaction regarding a significant safety issue with my Tesla Model Y 2024, which I purchased directly through Tesla’s official website. To date, my vehicle has never been involved in any accident and has been consistently stored in a secure garage, ensuring that it remains free from external damage. Issue description: recently, I discovered that the glassroof of my Tesla Model Y has developed noticeable cracks. This issue is perplexing and unacceptable, especially considering the vehicle has not been subjected to any conditions that could cause such damage. The sudden appearance of these cracks suggests a potential manufacturing defect or poor assembly quality, both of which are serious concerns for vehicle safety and integrity. Previous communication: upon discovering the issue, I promptly contacted Tesla service to report the problem and seek assistance. Unfortunately, my claim was denied without a satisfactory explanation or resolution. This denial not only exacerbates my frustration but also raises significant concerns about the quality control and customer support standards upheld by Tesla. Safety concerns: a cracked roof compromises the structural integrity of the vehicle and poses substantial safety risks to me and my passengers. Glassroof malfunctions can lead to unexpected failures, potentially resulting in accidents or injury. Additionally, the aesthetic damage detracts from the overall value and appeal of the vehicle. Request for immediate action: given the severity of this issue, I respectfully request the following: immediate investigation: a thorough investigation into the cause of the glassroof cracks, including a detailed assessment of potential manufacturing defects or assembly information redacted pursuant to the freedom of inform.

All of the car's cameras have gone dead since November 2024. The car has been collecting water in the truck area and inside panel of the car by the door frame.

In auto carwash while I was in vehicle it shifted from neutral to park causing the car behind me to hit my vehicle.

While driving on the highway got the warning on the control screen with red light warning stating "pull over and stop the vehicle" and the car automatically started slowing down. Another warning popped up stating “power reduced - exiting and re-entering vehicle may restore operation”. Has a yellow icon of a turtle. Felt very dangerous on a highway and immediately pulled over to the shoulder.

The car accelerated by itself over the curb and into the building.

Pushing the steering wheel honk below the Tesla "t" does not produce an audible honk.

I was driving and going about 50mph and there was no other car near me. Suddenly the car slammed on its brakes. Dropped to probably 10mph. My mom and I were both wearing seatbelts but our heads were thrown forward. My neck and shoulder are sore and stiff today now. There were dark skid marks in the road ahead of us and I believe the car saw those and broke because of them. If there had been a car behind us, we would have be rear ended. There were no warnings beforehand. When the car broke, lights flashed and there was also an alarm. The vehicle has not been inspected by police or manufacturer.

This is a complaint regarding a malfunction of the Tesla full self-driving (fsd) feature, which resulted in damage to my vehicle and may potentially pose a significant safety risk to public. On 07/02/2024, my newly purchased Tesla [model-y 2024] was parked next to a pillar in a parking garage. After ensuring that the full self-driving sign was on, I activated the fsd feature. However, as soon as the function was engaged, the vehicle instantly took off and made a right turn. This sudden and unexpected action caused the right side of the back passenger door to scrape against the iron guardrail on the pillar and caused damages to the right back passenger door and a portion of right back fender. This action happened so sudden that did not have the chance to react and take manual control. I contacted Tesla to report the issue and seek assistance, but after +4 weeks of contacting and restless following up with Tesla service teams, Tesla stated that the software was functioning properly and denied any responsibility for the malfunction, and they closed my case without offering any resolution or further investigation. Luckily, this incident happened in a confined parking garage. It could have resulted in more severe damage or injury had the circumstances been different. Additionally, Tesla's dismissal of the issue and refusal to accept responsibility is deeply concerning, especially about the reliability and safety of their full self-driving technology. I sincerely request your office to investigate into this incident, and I hope you could advise any appropriate action to examine and address this issue. I attached a few photographs of where my vehicle was parked before the fsd was turned on, and the damages on both my vehicle and the guardrail at the time of the incident. I am more than happy to provide any further information or clarification. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your guidance and assistance.

The Tesla accelerated by itself while I am driving in a heavy traffic. To avoid hitting the front car, I braked several times, which didn’t work at all. It still accelerated, instinctively I steered wheels to the right front and hit a small hill. Airbags are out. I struggled to get off the car and shouted for help. 911 was called and emergency ambulance took me to er. Luckily I am alive, it could be much worse that I would tremble when thinking of that crash scene again. This happened on 6/8/2024 12:41pm. I am waiting for the report from the police and the next steps from Tesla insurance.

This is my fifth Tesla, so I. Am very familiar with the self driving feature which is mostly good. However, recently I got a Model Y and with in 24 hours I was rear-ended on the freeway! I had the car in full self driving mode (fsd)! for some reason it just braked hard in the middle of my driving however, traffic was backing up. I injured my lower back and neck and I'm now having to go in for therapy and schedule a cat scan. Luckily the person behind me was fine. After the incident I downloaded the zip disk which records incidences. The car had documented pre and post accident! but the actual incident there is no record. . . Almost like it got wiped out!?!.

Unknown. Drove car in front of garage. Car came to a full stop. About to put car into reverse from drive in order to back into the garage, when car suddenly accelerated forward. Turned wheel sharply to the left in order avoid hitting neighbors fences. Vehicle traveled in an arch and collided with a tree next to an fence and stopped.

Incident date: February 12, 2024, at 1:00 pm location: [xxx] vehicle model: Tesla model 3 VIN: [insert VIN of the vehicle] license plate: [insert license plate number] description of the incident: on [xxx], while driving westbound on [xxx] at a speed of 35 mph, [xxx] experienced a sudden and dangerous malfunction of the Tesla model 3. Despite the driver's best efforts to maintain control, the vehicle autonomously shifted from the innermost lane to the outermost lane, jumped over the concrete sidewalk, and fell into a trench. Fortunately, no other vehicles were involved, preventing what could have been a fatal accident. The police report filed with the suwanee, GA police department documents the incident, and the car was subsequently towed to a body shop, where it was declared totaled. It is essential to note that the auto-drive feature was disabled, and no subscription to the self-driving feature had been purchased or renewed. This raises serious concerns about a potential malfunction in Tesla’s system, and it is imperative that this issue is thoroughly investigated. Attempts to resolve: since the incident, numerous attempts have been made to contact Tesla for a root cause investigation and resolution, but Tesla has failed to provide any substantive response or investigation. Below is a history of our efforts: 1. March 3, 2024: incident claim submitted during a call with raquel. No claim number received. 2. March 14, 2024: called Tesla customer service and spoke with anthony. Case was assigned to duluth, GA service center, but no case number was provided. 3. April 15, 2024: spoke with christian, and later with manager andrew. An email was received with reference id [xxx], but no further communication or action has been taken. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
