Defect Description:
FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Potential Consequences:
Vehicle Make/Model/Year: 2026 Tesla Model Y (Launch Series) Incident Date: [XXX] Incident Location: [XXX] System/Component Involved: Automated driving systems / Autopilot / Steering What Happened: While driving my new 2026 Tesla Model Y on Autopilot, the vehicle suddenly turned off the main road near [XXX] , and steered toward the curb. I immediately pressed the brake, but due to the vehicle’s speed, it still hit the curb, causing damage to the front right tire, wheel well liner, and triggering multiple system error messages. Shortly after, I witnessed another Tesla Model 3, also using Autopilot, make the exact same wrong turn at the same location and crash into the curb. No injuries occurred, but this appears to be a mapping or Autopilot software issue that can cause vehicles to leave the roadway unexpectedly, creating a serious safety hazard. Tesla is preparing the incident data, but this report is being filed to alert NHTSA of a potential Autopilot safety defect in this area.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
While driving along a few roads using Traffic Aware Cruise Control (TACC) or AutoPilot (AP), the car will suddenly brake for no reason at all. Speeds reduced from 75 to 50 in 2 seconds. Had there been a car close behind me, we may have collided. I am able to reproduce this on several other roads as well. I have not yet reported this to the manufacturer, but a review of internet forums shows this to be a relatively common occurrence among owners. They refer to this as Phantom Braking.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
We ordered a car from Tesla on April 19th and received an email on May 1st stating the vehicle we had order had arrived, ready for delivery. We set up delivery for [XXX]. Picked the car up that day. On May 9th, we noticed that the “as configured” options on the Monroney sticker didn’t match the actual installed features on the vehicle. It was missing the Full Self Driving that was listed on the Monroney sticker (that we had not ordered). I immediately contacted Tesla and was told by Corporate sales support in California that it would be corrected since it was on the sticker at the time of delivery, it has to be included with the VIN purchased. Trusting them enough not to get the name of the gentleman I spoke with was my mistake. I have contacted Tesla corporate customer service, Tesla corporate sales support and the Council bluffs delivery center after I noticed the discrepancy between what was actually on the vehicle and what the Monroney disclosure stated. I have requested the full self driving capability that is listed on the Monroney sticker with the VIN attached to the car I purchased be added to the vehicle to match their disclosure under the “as configured” section of the sticker. I was told by corporate sales support in California that it would be added to the vehicle because of their mistake. I noticed it had been added to the wrong vehicle (we have 2 teslas). I contacted customer service and they directed me to council,bluffs. Preston Sherwood told me he suggested leaving it on the wrong vehicle, just cancel the monthly subscription and subscribe on the correct vehicle. So I did just that and my paid subscription expired yesterday on the wrong vehicle and the option went away. I contacted customer service and they said they would make it right, but it has to go through “sales support” then promised they would call me. No one did. The feature still isn’t on the vehicle as listed on the only physical legal document we were provided at delivery. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION

I was told by corporate sales support in California that it would be added to the vehicle because of their mistake. I noticed it had been added to the wrong vehicle (we have 2 teslas). I contacted customer service and they directed me to council,bluffs. Preston Sherwood told me he suggested leaving it on the wrong vehicle, just cancel the monthly subscription and subscribe on the correct vehicle. So I did just that and my paid subscription expired yesterday on the wrong vehicle and the option went away. I contacted customer service and they said they would make it right, but it has to go through “sales support” then promised they would call me. No one did. The feature still isn’t on the vehicle as listed on the only physical legal document we were provided at delivery. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION
Additional Notes:
We ordered a car from Tesla on April 19th and received an email on May 1st stating the vehicle we had order had arrived, ready for delivery. We set up delivery for [XXX]. Picked the car up that day. On May 9th, we noticed that the “as configured” options on the Monroney sticker didn’t match the actual installed features on the vehicle. It was missing the Full Self Driving that was listed on the Monroney sticker (that we had not ordered). I immediately contacted Tesla and was told by Corporate sales support in California that it would be corrected since it was on the sticker at the time of delivery, it has to be included with the VIN purchased. Trusting them enough not to get the name of the gentleman I spoke with was my mistake. I have contacted Tesla corporate customer service, Tesla corporate sales support and the Council bluffs delivery center after I noticed the discrepancy between what was actually on the vehicle and what the Monroney disclosure stated. I have requested the full self driving capability that is listed on the Monroney sticker with the VIN attached to the car I purchased be added to the vehicle to match their disclosure under the “as configured” section of the sticker.

Defect Description:
TIRES
Potential Consequences:
Owned car for only a week with 470 miles on odometer. At appromately 10am CST on June 26 while on an exit ramp the tire sidewall failed catastrophically causing extraneous damage to fender well liner and molding. Car was stopped immediately as emergency services police and towbtruck were called. Weather was clear and there was np obstructions on the road. There was also no indication of low tire pressure until the failure happened. All tires were at the recommended 42 PSI per Tesla vehicle data. The failure was a complete total circumferential separation of the inner bead /sidewall from the rest of the tire. All tires were replaced by owner with Michelins due to lack of trust in the manufacturing quality of the pirelli tires. Tesla and Pirelli are not acknowledging any responsibility for this failure. This is a major safety related incident which could have caused a lot more damage if the car was traveling at a higher rate of speed. On an exit ramp the speed was not more than 45 mph.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
I owned the vehicle less than a month, using full supervised drive, FSD. Today 6/22/2025 1:45 PM almost had an accident. The vehicle was in the right made a left turn crossing a yellow line, then made a turn in a white line, in front of the vehicle behind me. I took control of the vehicle to proceed in the correct lane. On another occasion it made a right turn, corrected itself to the left lane as it should have done. I am hearing impaired, focus on the road, cannot look at the screen monitor while driving. The vehicle stopped, advised me FSD was inoperable, had to manual drive to my destination. There is no warning, alerts for the hearing impaired. Other issues driving in the wrong lane, then at the last minute changes to the correct lane, I am certain cutting off drivers. UNKNOWN
