On2/20/18 i was driving up my driveway. upon reaching the top of the driveway, the car suddenly accelerated by itself resulting in the front of the car hitting the concrete wall in front. i informed tesla and they claim that the computer showed that i pressed on the accelerator instead of the break. my answer is that i did not pressed on the accelerator. it just accelerated by itself. aside from me, i have 4 passengers that can attest to this. i have lived in this place since 1986 and this has never happened. since i have been driving up my driveway for 32 years, it is so routine for me that it is already ritual for me at almost the same speed and when to pressed on the gas and brake pedals the same way every time. this has not happened to my other cars and as my car insurance will show i have not been involved in car accidents for many years. i have not been shown any evidence except what tesla told me. it is their words versus mine and my 4 other passengers who experienced what actually happened. case number [xxx] thank you.*dt *js *js ('parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).')*jb
Though i indicated today's date for the event, has happened multiple times (at least 15) since i took delivery of the car in september. i would say on average it occurs approx 1x per week, when many systems fail and i get multiple warnings scrolling across the dash, followed by "car needs service." these include "abs needs service", "tire pressure system disabled", "stability control disabled" "traction control disabled" "park assist disabled" "regenerative braking disabled" "automatic emergency braking disabled" "contact tesla service." in addition the steering is less responsive. furthermore, today for the first time the "drive selector stick" that selects drive, park, reverse, neutral was unresponsive when starting. then went in to neutral. finally after several attempts it went in to reverse. this most frequently happens when starting the car, but sometimes occurs when in motion driving, at unpredictable times. they have had the car in to service a couple times. most recently they had the car from november 26th until january 2nd, and assured me that they corrected the problem 100%. which they did not. *tr
I received the car about a month ago and the front dashboard console that is a screen in front of the wheel reboots randomly when i am driving..i have to re start the whole system everytime to get it working and tell me the speedetails and other useful information... tesla says that they don't know what the issue is and can't come to a conclusion on how you fix it. *tr
