general problems of the 2025 Tesla Model Y

My Model Y reversed twice in a month while in 'd' drive mode. In one incident, I was pulling my car out of the parking lot in a garage and shifted the gear stalk down multiple times to engage 'd' drive mode. Instead of moving forward, the car reversed and collided with the garage wall.

Critical safety defect report – Tesla full self-driving (fsd) malfunction on [xxx] I am writing to formally report a critical and potentially deadly safety defect involving Tesla’s full self-driving (fsd) system. During a recent road trip with my husband and daughter from boston, MA to washington, d. C. , I used Tesla's fsd feature. On our return trip on [xxx] while traveling on [xxx] under fsd control, the system demonstrated erratic and dangerous behavior that nearly caused a fatal accident. As we approached an intersection on [xxx] , I observed that the traffic lights were red. However, the vehicle—still under fsd control—continued traveling at approximately 70 mph without slowing down. Sensing something was wrong, I quickly intervened and manually stopped the car at the intersection, where cross traffic was moving at high speeds in both directions. Had I reacted even a second later—or had the lights remained red in our direction—we likely would have been struck and potentially killed by the oncoming traffic. After reviewing dashcam footage from the incident, I confirmed that the fsd system had not only failed to recognize the red traffic signal but had also directed the car onto the wrong path, leading us into the potential path of oncoming vehicles. This serious failure posed an extreme and unacceptable risk to my family’s lives. Following the incident, my young daughter was deeply traumatized and developed a high fever that night. This experience has left lasting emotional and psychological distress for all of us. I believe this event highlights a severe and urgent defect in Tesla’s fsd system. I respectfully urge the NHTSA to launch an immediate investigation to prevent similar occurrences that could result in injury or loss of life. I am prepared to submit the dashcam footage and relevant vehicle logs to support this report. Please advise on the next steps for providing this evidence. Thank you for your attention information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

I signaled for a slight turn to the right. And then within 100 yards I came to an intersection where the main path , my path, of travel beared left. As I approached this t and was about to bear left, I saw the driver on the leg of the t about to pull directly into my path… because they saw that my right turn signal was still on about 60 yards after my original partial turn. Fortunately, I slowed and they paused. That was when I realized the reason for the confusion…that my original right turn signal was still on. The indicator shuts off too late. I would say a good bit later than a typical turn signal.

I defrosted my windows prior to entering the car. As I got into the vehicle I noticed it was extremely hot in the car. Turned off the defroster. I backed up out of my driveway. Drove passing two houses, my windshield started to crack towards the middle of my windshield. There were no cracks or impact prior to defrosting.

The horn becomes very quite when snow builds up in front of the car. I drove my car on a snowy day, and the weather was freezing for a week. Until the ice melted, the horn didn't work. I had two risky moments. Once, someone was backing up, and I couldn't get their attention, and the other one was when I was passing a truck, and they were drifting off their lane, and I couldn't get their attention. I booked a service appointment with Tesla, and the service technician told me that new models have the horn on a different side of the car, and this is normal. They didn't take any action.

I took delivery of the Tesla Model Y yesterday (12/24/2024). The car has 73 miles on it as of now. First, the rear view camera stops working this morning (12/25/2024) and parking assistant is not available. Then the autopilot won't turn on and the car shows an alert that "power limited". After I arrived home from a supercharger (the car is charged to 80% as of now) around 1pm, the screen turns brick, and it will not turn on again after rebooting. It can drive, but the power feels weak. I called Tesla roadside service. The car has been towed to the fresno service center.

Once you start driving in the rain the horn start loosing volume intensity until it basically it becomes so quiet no one can hear it. This is a safety issue and I've read on line of many peoplehavi g the same issue on their Teslas. A recall shoukd be imposed on Tesla immediately.
