Defect Description:
FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Potential Consequences:
Malfunctioning system: AUTOPILOT, Self Driving. The vehicle is available for inspection. We were put at RISK following having several 'NEAR MISS' incidents. None of which resulted in an accident. The 2022 Model S PLAID with less than 2,929 current miles as of this entry, while being driven in daylight & evening hours on major freeways and interstate roads in Central & Southern California while using the "AUTOPILOT" FULL SELF DRIVING (FSD) has multiple times for NO APPARENT REASON & WITHOUT WARNING suddenly 'PANIC' BRAKED the vehicle from freeway speeds to less than 30 MPH. In one instance this caused the late model vehicle following us to take immediate evasive action and swerve into the adjacent lane without warning and then the vehicle HONKED continuously at us while passing us to our left. On each of the occasions I have had to OVERRIDE the Autopilot by pressing on the accelerator pedal as soon as I realized what was happening! On other occasions when in 'AUTOPILOT' self-driving mode, the vehicle has attempted to change lanes to exit the highway without awareness of how close the vehicle was to the end of the exit lane. Again I had to OVERRIDE the Autopilot by turning the yoke back into the lane to avoid running into barriers. I had believed that because this is a 'BETA' version that these conditions were being worked on and would be corrected with a software update. I have had numerous software updates installed. The current Version is 2022.44.30.10. For this reason, I have not reported these incidents to the manufacturer or made an appointment with the Local Tesla Service Center. The problems continue even with the current software update. Until recently, I was unaware of others having these same issues or that significant injury, death, damage, have occurred. However, since being made aware of this problem, I chose to report my experiences. I will follow-up and make an appointment with the manufacturer to have the vehicle inspected.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
During normal driving, I was unable to activate the horn on a regular basis. The yoke steering wheel does not have a horn activator in the traditional "center" part of the steering column, and the purported method of activating the horn by covering all of the buttons on the right side of the steering york never worked for me. It's dangerous and I found myself on multiple occasions not being able to activate the horn.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
Yesterday while my car was supercharging. Loud Arcing and electrical sounds were heard. I was inside the car with my seatbelt on as I was only planning on supercharging for about 10 minutes. Approximately 2 minutes after charging started I heard loud electrical sounds similar like when a transfer explodes. I was getting ready to get out of the car and it stop. Within 30 seconds or so my HVAC stop working and "cabin climate control system requires service-Cabin heating/cooling limited or unavailable" caution message was displayed. The cabin heating stop working completely and it was about 29 degrees f in Chicago. I went a little deeper into settings and more than 10 faults were showing relating to high voltage condition detected. I call roadside assistance for a tow and I was told I could still drive the car home which I did. Car sat overnight and faults remained and did not cleared. I had to drive in below freezing temperatures this morning to work and I had to wipe my windshield clean and it resulted in me NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE OUTSIDE DUE TO BEING COMPLETLY FOG UP. It looks like my heat pump stop working completely which shutdown the HVAC in the car. This is a safety hazard due to visibility outside car getting possibly blocked due to no A/C.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
The gear shifter is unreliable without visually checking the gears on screen. It may or may not register the shift during selection. When merging from residential traffic to a main road turning right, the driver has to pull forward to check the incoming traffic. In ideal situation, if the other vehicles are approaching at speed, the driver would want shift in to reverse and backup from hanging over main road and back to the residential alley. However the inconsistencies of the gear selector make it dangerous during those occasions. The car could fail to register the shift, or cannot shift fast enough to reverse. It poses significant risks to the driver and other vehicles on the road. A front/rear cross traffic alert or a better mechanism to shift into reverse should be implemented. The mounted secondary gear selector in the center console does not light up during this cases, it it still require a visual check when defeat the purpose during emergency.

TIRES
Potential Consequences:
Rear tires have alarming wear on the inside, where the inside sidewall meets the tread. This is identical to the other complaints that are logged on NHTSA about Michelin Pilot Sport 4S rear tires on Tesla Model S Plaid cars. Tires are: Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 295/30 ZR21 102Y XL BSW. Specifically, the right rear tires loses pressure and needs to be reinflated. The left rear tire, according to inspection, actually looked worse, but is not yet losing pressure. This is impossible to see or know about without removing the tire or putting the car on a lift, since it is on the is inside sidewall/tread of the rear tire. There is high danger of a blowout because of some type of defect (camber/suspension or tire) which cannot be seen by the consumer. I would have never known about this if the tire technician had not alerted me, and probably would have had a high-speed blowout.
