7G2CEHED5RA0119482024 TESLA Cybertruck

I paid Tesla to perform a safety inspection of my Tesla Cybertruck after I purchased it. During that inspection, Tesla determined that the vehicle's as built configuration was **not safe** and required me to purchase a newer revision of the Power Conversion System (PCS). The required PCS revision did not exist when my vehicle was originally manufactured, meaning the vehicle could not have been built with that revision. The original PCS installed in my vehicle has a widespread failure rate among Cybertrucks. When the PCS fails, the vehicle is unable to charge, leaving it stranded. I believe this is a safety defect that warrants investigation by the NHTSA. Tesla's own words on their invoice state that the as-built configuration was determined to be unsafe, and required me to purchase a newer revision of the PCS (1777777-T2-G) to address the safety issue.

The vehicle has experienced an issue with its power conversion system (PCS2) that leaves AC charging unavailable. Based upon online forums and social media, this issue is clearly widespread amongst early VIN model Cybertrucks. The scope of the issue has lead to delays with repair. My vehicle has experienced this issue since early June 2026, and I am still awaiting repair. This is a safety concern because it could plausibly leave the vehicle stranded due to lack of ability to charge the vehicle. While Tesla and third party superchargers are widespread, they are not everywhere and cannot allow a vehicle to travel to most roads in the United States. There have been circumstances where, if AC charging was not an option, I would have been stranded in a desert and surely would have died of excessive heat exposure. With the PCS2 failure, this issue a plausible risk.

My 2024 cybertruck has a PCS2 onboard error. It has failed but Tesla has told me it’s under warranty however if I was past the warranty it wouldn’t be covered. This is a widespread issue known on 2024/2025 cybertruck. Nearly all VINs are affected.

PCS2 Failure alerts on the screen left the vehicle unable to charge at any level except supercharge. The vehicle can be stranded due to unavailibility of supercharges and inability to charge at any Level 1 or level 2 chrgers.

The car would stop charging at home and an error showed up about two months ago. After reporting to Tesla, they did a diagnostic over the air and concluded that the battery (HVB) needs to be replaced. The car is at the shop for over a month, and they are still waiting on parts.

I am filing a safety defect complaint regarding my Tesla Cybertruck. Water entered the truck bed outlet area and caused corrosion to the mounting bolts and surrounding components, resulting in Tesla determining that the entire bed wall panel requires replacement. The bed outlet is designed for outdoor use and exposure to weather conditions. In my opinion, water intrusion into this area represents a design defect because moisture can enter the electrical outlet assembly and associated mounting hardware, leading to corrosion and component deterioration. My concern is that continued corrosion could potentially affect the integrity or functionality of the electrical outlet system and create an electrical safety hazard for owners using the bed power outlets in normal outdoor conditions, including rain or vehicle washing. Tesla inspected the vehicle and confirmed water ingress and corrosion were present and advised that replacement of the bed wall panel was necessary to correct the condition. I request that NHTSA review whether the design of the Cybertruck bed outlet and surrounding components adequately protects against water intrusion and corrosion during normal vehicle use.

The contact owns a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle made an abnormal rattling sound, and the contact noticed that the metal quarter panel was loose. The contact was concerned that the quarter panel detachment could cause a crash. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where a replacement quote was provided. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and confirmed that there was no coverage. The failure mileage was approximately 3,000.

Approximately 10 minutes after my vehicle was serviced at a Tesla Service Center for a Full Self-Driving (FSD) concern, I entered the highway and engaged FSD. The service center had stated the system was operating correctly. While traveling approximately 75 mph through a highway curve, FSD suddenly changed to an "Unavailable" state. According to Tesla's own accident data, I did not disengage FSD. There was no audible warning, no effective visual warning, no takeover request, no controlled deceleration, and no safe handoff to the driver before the vehicle stopped controlling itself. Within about one second of FSD becoming unavailable, the vehicle left its intended path and struck a concrete highway divider. If the divider had not been present, the vehicle likely would have crossed into oncoming highway traffic, creating the risk of a catastrophic head-on collision with other vehicles, including a semi-truck. Tesla's accident report confirms I did not disengage FSD and shows no warning or takeover request before impact. I possess documentation supporting that FSD became unavailable without a safe transition to the driver. This failure occurred immediately after Tesla serviced the vehicle and represented that the FSD system was functioning properly. Despite the accident data, Tesla Customer Support and the Service Center have refused to acknowledge or investigate what appears to be a failure of the FSD system's fail-safe behavior. The failed component appears to be the FSD/Autopilot system and its driver handoff logic. The vehicle and electronic records are available for inspection. An automated driving system should not terminate operation at highway speed without providing adequate warning, a safe transfer of control, or controlled deceleration. I believe this presents a serious safety defect that could result in fatal crashes. The collision caused approximately $15,500 in vehicle damage.

PCS system has failed. This causes the vehicle to be unable to charge and can lead to loss of power if unable to get to a supercharger before the battery is depleted. It can now only be charged at full Tesla superchargers and not at other brands, hotel chargers, or home AC chargers. The vehicle did notify me of the PCS failure and recommended using a supercharger. Tesla proactively updated my account to allow for free supercharging, but this does not eliminate the risk when going to areas that do not have superchargers available. Parts are not currently available to repair the problem and my service requests are left in a "review" state. Vehicle is available for inspection if needed.

This is reporting an issue with v14.3.3 and v14.3.4 of Tesla Full Self Driving (FSD) Supervised. This month I have driven over 4,000 miles with FSD enabled, approximately 2/3rd on 14.3.3 and 1/3 on 14.3.4. FSD has regularly failed to respect speed limit changes, even though it seems to recognize / observe the speed limit signs. I am certain it’s observing the signs because it renders them on the in-car display, but it doesn’t actually adjust its speed in response to those signs. The most egregious of cases have been when driving through Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona where the speed limit is often 75 mph on Interstate highways (e.g., [XXX]). On multiple occasions the vehicle has ignored construction speed limit changes to 55 mph, and instead has tried to maintain 75-80 mph through the construction zone. Not only could that get me a nasty speeding ticket, but it could also put construction workers lives at risk. It has also happened in non-construction zones, like when on a non-interstate highway that passes through towns and reduces speed when doing so. It doesn’t fail 100% of the time, but it has been an issue more than 50% of the time I enter a construction zone.

I was driving my Tesla Cybertruck on the highway when I experienced unexpected steering movements from side to side. I attempted to maintain control of the vehicle and slow down. The vehicle ultimately left its intended path and collided with the median. I do not know the cause of the incident. At the time of the accident, I believe a Tesla driver-assistance feature may have been engaged, but I am requesting that Tesla review the vehicle data and logs to determine exactly what systems were active and whether any vehicle malfunction contributed to the event. The accident resulted in significant vehicle damage. I am submitting this report because I am concerned that a potential steering, vehicle control, or driver-assistance system issue may have contributed to the incident and I believe the event should be investigated.

The rear passenger side sail applique flew off the truck while I was driving on the freeway.

Tesla does a warning if it can not detect your eyes on the road when using FSD (Full Self Driving). After few warnings on a trip it becomes a strike. After 5 strikes, they remove FSD and AutoPilot for a week. It becomes dangerous now since I have been driving on FSD for several years to drive the big CyberTruck without FSD. The removing FSD for a week behavior needs to be stopped. Without FSD chances of accident are 10000% increased.

PCS2 charging failure, PCS_a094 / a095 errors, loss of AC charging, reduced charging speeds, and PowerShare charging issue.

On 05/30/2026 at approximately 15H24, my Tesla Cybertruck was parked and stopped at approx. [XXX] of Target). No one was seated in the driver seat. A passenger entered the vehicle and sat in the front passenger seat to play music. Shortly after the passenger sat down, the vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly moved forward on its own and rear-ended the vehicle parked directly in front of it and causing damages. This occurred while the vehicle was supposed to be parked/stationary and while there was no driver in the driver seat. We do not understand what triggered the vehicle to move forward. This appears to be a serious safety issue because a parked, unattended vehicle should not move forward without driver input. The incident created a collision risk to nearby vehicles, pedestrians, and anyone standing in front of or around the vehicle. I am requesting that NHTSA review this as a potential unintended movement / unintended acceleration / park-to-drive activation / rollaway safety defect. Tesla should be required to investigate the vehicle logs and determine whether the movement was caused by a software issue, gear selection issue, Autopark/FSD/Summon/mobile app activation, brake hold/parking brake failure, sensor/occupancy issue, accelerator pedal issue, or any other defect. Video and photos in the link: [XXX] There was property damage to the vehicle parked in front. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My Tesla Cybertruck has experienced a failure of the Power Conversion System (PCS), which prevents the vehicle from charging at home using the installed residential charging equipment. Tesla diagnosed the issue and advised that the required replacement part is unavailable, with no estimated date for repair. As a result, I have been forced to rely exclusively on public Superchargers for several months. While Tesla has provided free Supercharging, this does not restore the vehicle’s intended functionality and requires significant additional travel, waiting time, and disruption to my daily activities and business operations. The vehicle was purchased and represented as capable of convenient home charging, and the prolonged inability to repair a critical charging system due to parts unavailability substantially impairs its use, value, and practicality. I am submitting this complaint because Tesla has been unable to provide a repair timeline, and I am concerned that other owners may be experiencing similar failures and extended delays in obtaining repairs. The offered loaner vehicle is a Tesla Model Y, which is not comparable to a Cybertruck and does not meet the hauling and cargo needs associated with my business operations.

All vehicle cameras failed simultaneously on May 12, 2026 at approximately 4:41 PM. Tesla app displayed "Cameras Unavailable — Please try again later." All camera-dependent systems were completely inoperable: Autopilot, FSD, Sentry Mode, dashcam/TeslaCam. Component failed: Entire forward and perimeter camera system. Vehicle available for inspection at Tesla Tallahassee Service Center. Safety risk: Vehicle cannot safely operate driver assistance systems with all cameras dead. Total loss of rear/side visibility systems while driving. No warning prior to failure. Manufacturer response: Tesla Pensacola general manager intentionally cancelled 8 consecutive service appointments — confirmed on recorded Tesla corporate call May 29, 2026. Owner drove 2.5 hours to one appointment and the GM rescheduled it without any notice. Tesla corporate agent confirmed on record: "You shouldn't have to travel to a service center that's over 100 miles away when you have one that's close to you." As of May 29, 2026 vehicle is at Tallahassee SC — Tesla refusing to provide a loaner or complete repairs. Owner has been without vehicle 24-48 hours despite being promised a loaner at time of tow. Prior warning: TeslaCam left-repeater camera failure events auto-saved December 15, 2025 — system was already failing 5 months prior to total failure. Was defect reproduced by dealer: No — Tesla refused to inspect despite 8 cancelled appointments.

My vehicle's windshield wipers were completely inoperable for an extended period. I drove this vehicle across multiple states without functional windshield wipers — confirmed on a recorded Tesla corporate support call dated May 21, 2026. This is also covered under NHTSA Recall 24V456000 (Windshield Wiper Motor failure), which Tesla Pensacola failed to identify or perform. Tesla Council Bluffs, IA identified this recall as requiring urgent attention. Safety risk: Operating a vehicle at highway speed without functional windshield wipers in any precipitation is extremely dangerous. I drove cross-country in this condition. Manufacturer response: Tesla Pensacola stated the vehicle had "nothing wrong." Tesla Council Bluffs identified the recall. Recall has still not been performed.

Beginning approximately December 2025, my vehicle produces a severe grinding sound when attempting to accelerate. The sound has been consistent and ongoing for approximately 6 months. Confirmed verbatim on recorded Tesla corporate support call May 21, 2026: "If I try to accelerate it's making this horrible grinding sound. This has been going on since December." Component: Drivetrain / power unit (unknown — Tesla has never inspected). Safety risk: Grinding on acceleration indicates mechanical failure in the drivetrain that could result in sudden loss of power or vehicle control. Manufacturer response: Tesla Pensacola GM intentionally cancelled 8 consecutive service appointments since December 2025 — confirmed on recorded Tesla corporate call May 29, 2026. Owner stated on Tesla's recorded line: "For the last two years it's been broken. I've literally had it in the shop more than I've driven it." Tesla has never examined the source of the grinding sound. As of May 29, 2026, vehicle is at Tallahassee Service Center. Tesla escalated to Regional Manager on May 29, 2026. Available for inspection: Yes — vehicle at Tesla Tallahassee Service Center.

My vehicle achieves only 80-100 miles of real-world range per charge, requiring charging to 100% to reach even this reduced figure. On April 30, 2026 at 11:08 PM, I documented energy consumption of 460.8 Wh/mi — 37% worse than the specification required to achieve Tesla's advertised range of 318-340 miles. Component: High voltage battery / power distribution system. Safety risk: Severe undisclosed range reduction means the vehicle may reach 0% charge in locations and at times the driver does not anticipate based on advertised specifications, creating stranding and safety risks. Manufacturer response: Raised on May 21, 2026 recorded call with Tesla corporate. Tesla acknowledged the issue and said to discuss at service — but all service appointments have been cancelled since December 2025.

The vehicle's tonneau cover was defective from the day of delivery and remained unusable for approximately the first 12 months of ownership. Factory over-application of adhesive forced the rear window against the tonneau rollers, preventing operation. I purchased this vehicle specifically for its cargo bed functionality for business use. The cover was finally repaired at Tesla Lincoln, NE when a senior technician was present — root cause identified as a manufacturing defect present from the factory. Component: Tonneau cover / rear bed cover system. Safety: Debris containment failure — unsecured cargo bed.

NHTSA Recall 24V832000 covers a drive inverter defect that can cause complete loss of drive power. This recall was identified as active on my vehicle when I drove cross-country to XXX. Tesla Pensacola [XXX] ) told me "nothing was wrong" and did not perform this recall despite having the vehicle in for service multiple times. Component: Drive inverter / power train. Safety risk: Complete loss of drive power at highway speed is an extreme safety hazard. Manufacturer response: Tesla Pensacola stated the vehicle had no issues and performed no recall work. Tesla Council Bluffs, IA immediately identified this recall as requiring urgent attention on the same vehicle. Available for inspection: Yes — vehicle currently at Tesla Tallahassee Service Center. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

NHTSA Recall 24V276000 covers an accelerator pedal pad that can dislodge and become trapped under the pedal, causing unintended acceleration. This recall was identified as active and unperformed on my vehicle by Tesla Council Bluffs, IA. Tesla Pensacola told me the vehicle had "nothing wrong" and performed no recall work despite multiple service visits. Safety risk: Unintended acceleration is an extreme safety hazard capable of causing fatal accidents. Manufacturer response: Tesla Pensacola failed to identify or perform this safety recall. Tesla Council Bluffs immediately identified it as requiring urgent attention. Available for inspection: Yes — vehicle at Tesla Tallahassee Service Center.

NHTSA Recall 26V255000, issued April 22, 2026, covers brake rotor studs that may crack, potentially causing wheel separation at speed. This critical safety recall has not been performed on my vehicle. Tesla Pensacola cancelled all service appointments since December 2025 without performing any recall work. Safety risk: Wheel separation at highway speed is a life-threatening defect. I have been driving this vehicle since April 22, 2026 — over one month — with potentially cracked brake rotor studs because Tesla has refused to schedule and complete service. As of May 27, 2026, the vehicle was towed to Tesla Tallahassee without my knowledge or a loaner vehicle provided, and Tesla is now refusing to perform service without my in-person presence. Available for inspection: Yes — vehicle at Tesla Tallahassee Service Center.

Pcs2 failure

I am submitting a safety complaint regarding the rear visibility system on my Tesla Cybertruck. The physical rear view mirror does not provide any usable visibility of the roadway behind the vehicle. The design of the rear window and cargo area blocks the view, which makes the mirror ineffective for its intended safety function. Because the physical mirror cannot be used, the driver must rely on the rear camera feed displayed on the center screen. This is the only way to see directly behind the vehicle during normal driving. However, the rear camera feed disappears every time the turn signal indicators are activated. When the indicators turn on, the screen automatically replaces the rear view with the side camera view. This removes all rear visibility at the exact moment when the driver needs full awareness for lane changes, merging, and turning. This behavior cannot be disabled or overridden. It is part of the default software design. As a result, the driver is left without any functional rear visibility method during critical maneuvers. This creates a clear safety risk and raises concerns regarding compliance with FMVSS 111, which requires reliable rear visibility. The loss of rear visibility during lane changes and turns increases the risk of collisions with vehicles approaching from behind. Since the physical mirror is unusable and the digital feed is removed by the software, the driver has no safe or compliant way to monitor rear traffic during these maneuvers. I request that NHTSA investigate this issue and require Tesla to provide a remedy. A potential remedy would include keeping the rear camera feed visible at all times unless the driver manually chooses to remove it, or adding a dedicated rear view camera feed that remains active during all driving conditions.

PCS2 failed. Unable to AC charge. Afraid supercharging will go out next. Lots of errors on dash. Tesla says will take months for the part to come in, because thousands of others are failing, potentially stranding drivers.

AC power system failure. Can no longer charge car from home AC power (free), must use commercial charging station (pay).

In July of 2025, I drive my vehicle on a 130 mile trip. About 25 miles into the drive, I started receiving errors about AC charging not available. I stopped at a Tesla supercharger Hannibal [XXX] but I couldn’t charge it there either. Drive it the rest of the way to my destination where I had an ac charger available. Tried there but I couldn’t charge there either. Tried resetting the car…still couldn’t charge. Opened service ticket. Tesla had to send a tow vehicle 110 miles to me and then tire the truck back to the service center in [XXX] . they had to keep the car 3 days and replaced the pcs system. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Can’t charge at home and must drive across town to charge. Part is unavailable for over two months they said.

The PCS unit failed and the truck would not charge at all. Tesla repaired under warranty.

PCS2_a094 error PCS2_a095 error PCS2_a137 error Known issue. PCS system failing. Vehicle slows down charging and then stops charging completely. Service scheduled for 2 months away.

The PCS module failed in the vehicle, not allowing me to charge the vehicle at home. I can still use it at Superchargers, but the AC charging at my house no longer works and the power share function of the truck also no longer works. There seems to be a widespread issue as in all the forms in groups. I’m in thousands of people have had this problem recently with no rhyme or reason to year make model or miles

PCS2 failure preventing the truck from charging, and use of PowerShare.

Pcs2 board replaced. Charging was limited to 24amp. Replaced under warranty but a lot of trucks are experiencing this so I am reporting

I have had a PCS2 charging failure for months now and Tesla has not fixed it. The truck is currently only charging at 24a instead of 48a. If this continues to fail the truck will not be able to charge at all.

PCS component in my car has degraded, I could charge at 36A earlier but now the charger only charges at 24A. This is line with large number of PCS failures reported by other users and their failed components being replaced by Tesla. However they returned mine saying they could not replicate it!

The main FSD computer has given me a fault which probably necessitates replacement of the main computer at a cost of $3250. Car is 2024 and is just out of warranty with 52,000 miles within the last month. Tesla states they will not cover. Safety features are "not available", per the warning on my dash.

I have fell victim to the now infamous PCS failure. My truck stopped being able to charge from home, and Tesla requires me to use their Supercharging system in order to drive it. I was actually around the truck when it failed and could smell a potent odor of electrical smoke coming from outside the vehicle. I have observed the same odor every time I’ve charged it since. Tesla will not accept the vehicle at their service center because they are back ordered on the part by over eight weeks.

Unexpected PCS2 failure and loss of AC charging. This unable to charge battery where supercharger is not available. Risks of being stranded. Limits current use. Repair unavailable and no estimated time per service center!

Will not charge at 48 volts has been reduced to 24 volts. PCS failure. This is a widespread issue and apparently known by Tesla which currently has a parts shortage

The failed components include the Tesla Vision system (cameras), sensors, Active Safety Control Module (AEB), and Gear Selection UI. Symptoms first appeared on April 30, 2026, including black screens and "Autopilot Unavailable" alerts. Internal vehicle logs from Apr 30 to May 02 confirm persistent "SNA" (Signal Not Available) and "UNAVAILABLE" states for these critical safety modules well before the collision. On the day of the accident (May 02), the logs recorded 25 instances of Gear UI signal loss, which completely disabled the rearview camera and proximity alerts while reversing. This total "blind" state put my safety at extreme risk as I had zero visibility of blind spots and received no audible warnings. The Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) was also recorded as "UNAVAILABLE," failing to prevent the collision. The problem is scientifically confirmed by the vehicle's internal diagnostic logs, which I have retrieved and am ready to provide for inspection. The accident has been reported to the local police and Progressive Insurance. I am currently coordinating with Tesla Service for a formal inspection of these software and hardware defects.

A widespread defect in the Cybertruck's Power Conversion System (PCS) completely disables home/AC charging. Replacement parts are on national backorder. The Power Conversion System (PCS) manages all alternating-current (AC) power flowing into the battery. I began receiving an error code, PCS2_a095, which indicates a failure in the Power Conversion System (PCS) of a Tesla Cybertruck, causing "AC Charging inability to charge at home, effectively bricking the vehicle for daily convenient use.

This error code (PCS2_a103_IsoTempSensorIrrational) is from a Tesla Cybertruck. It relates to the Power Conversion System (PCS2), which handles AC charging, PowerShare (vehicle-to-load/home), and other power conversion functions. My Cybertruck will likely be affected in the future by charging issues related to PCS. I understand this is a common issue with Cybertruck within my VIN range. I request this issue be investigated and a recall done prior to being affected.

Faulty PCS system can cause car to stop charging, potentially causing vehicle to shut down on the highway, leaving it stranded and a hazard on the road.

The new tesla update forces me to interact with the touch screen in order to operate my vehicle after self driving is disabled. There is no way to dismiss or disable this screen in the new update and no way for me to roll my vehicle back to the old software. After disengaging self driving a forced selector box forces you to make one of 4 choices in order to see your screen/navigation and perform other features in the car such as adjusting the windshield wipers. There is no way to disable this screen, it pops up every single time Full Self Driving is disengaged and there is no way to disable it. I believe this actively violates california law by requiring me to interact with the touch screen while actively controlling the vehicle on manual mode. I tried clicking elsewhere on the screen but yuo are forced to select one of the four options presented

The contact owns a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the sideview mirrors struck a pedestrian. Additionally, the sideview mirrors struck barriers and other objects while driving. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to detect or recognize when an object was struck and continued operating. The dealer was notified of the failure, but the vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 28,000.

The OEM off-road light bar was mounted on the top of windshield fell off. Tesla refused to fix and replace

PCS FAILURE. WILL NOT CHARGE

Vehicle stopped AC and DC charging. This could get anybody stranded. Seems to be a wide spread issues online. PCS2

I was driving my 2024 Tesla Cybertruck on the Freeway 57 southbound between 9:06 AM to 9:10 AM at about 60 mph when the vehicle suddenly steered sharply to the left without any input from me. It completed a full 360-degree spin, hit the concrete median, and then came to a stop. No other cars were involved. The truck is heavily damaged and not drivable. This appears to be a sudden mechanical or software failure. I have reported it to 911 and the police car moved the vehicle to a safe place. I have reported it to Tesla and requested a full diagnostic review of the vehicle logs.

The PCs on earlier cybertrucks has been recalled. The same issue seems to persist. The issue will not allow you to charge T home and drastically cuts vehicle performance. In addition the only way you can charge is via a supercharger which makes one wonder if this whole thing was a cash grab for Tesla to force these trucks onto their costly charging network.

This incident happens when driving home from work, it happened half a mile away from where I live on a local road. All of a sudden car lost all power, steering wheel and brake completely failed, drive train completely failed while the car was still moving. there was no way the car could be controlled to move to the side of the road or to break to completely stop it.. thankfully it coasted to a complete stop. As it was the middle of the day, there were no cars around the local road I was on. Once the car stopped everything shut off completely. There was no way to turn on the hazard lights or get out of the car either I had to use emergency exit.. car wash towed to Tesla service center where it stayed with them for a few weeks and I was told that it was PCS an ancillary auxiliary part that needed to be replaced. While searching the forums, I found out that this is becoming a problem where multiple cyber trucks have this issue going on which I feel is a safety issue as it can cause a major accident or fatalities if somebody was driving on the highway on highway speeds and this happened. I am opening this ticket to help others so hopefully a recall is done on this.

My Cybertruck’s Power Conversion System failed at 65,000 miles. I received a PCS alert, AC charging became unavailable, and the vehicle displayed charging faults. The repair required major disassembly of the tonneau, bed, and air suspension and cost 7000 because it occurred after warranty. Why This Is a Safety Defect: The PCS is a critical component that handles onboard AC charging, DC-DC conversion to the 48V system, and power delivery. Failure can strand drivers, prevent charging, and (as seen in related drive-inverter recalls) contribute to sudden loss of propulsion while driving. This Is a Widespread Issue: PCS failures are occurring frequently (“left and right”) in Cybertrucks, especially early production models. Owner forums and polls show dozens of identical failures, with some samples reporting 18–40% affected. Many owners face 2,000–7,000 repairs out of warranty. Tesla issued a limited recall for related drive inverters (NHTSA Campaign 24V-832) that can cause sudden power loss, but no recall covers the broader PCS defect despite the clear pattern. I strongly urge NHTSA to investigate this common defect immediately and require Tesla to issue a full recall for affected Cybertrucks, including free replacement of the Power Conversion System for all owners. Thank you for protecting public safety.

My 2024 Tesla Cybertruck (purchased May 2024, approximately 7,500 miles) experienced a complete AC charging system failure with no prior warning on March 27, 2026. Upon entering the vehicle, two active fault codes were present on the touchscreen: PCS2_a094 (AC Charging unavailable) and PCS2_a095 (Powershare unavailable). The vehicle was at 17% state of charge with no ability to charge via AC. Three full system reboots were performed with no change to the fault codes or charging ability. The onboard charger (PCS2 module) has failed completely. Tesla roadside assistance instructed me to drive the vehicle to the [XXX] service center — a location the vehicle could not safely reach given its state of charge and inability to charge en route. This represents a safety concern as the vehicle was effectively stranded with no viable path to charging or service without third-party transport. The vehicle is well within its warranty period (basic 4yr/50k, battery 8yr/150k) and a service appointment has been opened with Tesla. This failure occurred with no warning from the vehicle's monitoring systems or Tesla app prior to the fault appearing. A vehicle at low state of charge with a fully inoperative charging system and no prior alert represents a genuine safety risk to owners, particularly in situations where alternative transportation is unavailable.

at 46,500 miles, my AC charging dropped from the usual 48amps, down to 24amps. Then 2 days after this, my AC charging failed. This happened on 3/22/2026. I am unable to AC charge, but CAN DC charge. This is indicative of a PCS2 board failure, and this has been happening to a LOT of cybertrucks recently. It will be replaced under warranty (I hope) but so, so many vehicles are affected and there is no recall that I've heard of. It should be a recall. Thank you

Normal night charging . Morning I get into my car I have alerts PCS2 saying I can't charge anymore at home . This is a huge safety concern as it's happened to many Cybertruck owners. If we go on a trip we can literally be stranded due to range and accessibility of chargers with kids. This needs to be fixed as a constant warranty even past 50,000 miles as the vehicle is not proven and in its early years. It's not a matter of if , it's when and creates unreliability and extremely heavy repair costs for an owner not due to personal wear and tear. Clearly a manufacture recall that should be monitored for a long long time.

On December 23, 2025, at approximately 9:45 AM, I was operating my Tesla Cybertruck with Autopilot engaged under normal driving conditions. There was no inclement weather, the roadway was straight, and visibility was clear. While driving, the vehicle suddenly veered off the main roadway without warning and traveled off-road, ultimately colliding with a tree. The movement was abrupt and not consistent with normal lane departure. I immediately attempted to correct the direction of the vehicle; however, the vehicle did not respond appropriately to my steering input and felt unresponsive during the event. At no point did I intentionally steer off the roadway. The loss of control was unexpected given the road conditions and environment. This incident raises concerns about the reliability and safety of the Autopilot/driver assistance system and its ability to maintain lane control and allow driver override when needed.

PCS2_a094 AC Charging unavailable This warning creates a situation of not be able to charge at all. Requiring a tow. I’ve was stranded with no way to charge. Had to leave my wife and kids cause I didn’t have enough charge to get them and get the truck back to a service center and another vehicle to get them home. Truck only a year old and 37k miles. Multiple owners reporting the same issue at a cost of 7k to replace PCS unit. Fail around 30k miles and then screwed once it’s out of warranty.

Tesla sent me a Recall notice on the Lightbar, but in the notice, Tesla says it will not connect the lightbar to the electrical system and make the lightbar operable when Tesla repairs the defective lightbar. I paid $300.00 to have the original lightbar connected to the electrical system, and now, due to Tesla's improper installation, I am going to have to pay to have the new lightbar connected as well. This is unfair, unjust, and allows Tesla to escape twice. This leaves a huge financial burden on consumers. Make Tesla repair and make the light bar operable, and return me to the position I was in before they improperly installed the lightbar.

Vehicle Safety Complaint - Tesla Cybertruck Steering System Failure During FSD While driving my Tesla Cybertruck with Full Self-Driving (FSD) engaged, the rear steering system failed without any prior warning. FSD immediately disengaged, and a red steering system ERROR appeared on the instrument cluster. The rear axle steering was completely disabled, turning radius became severely limited, and vehicle speed was restricted. This occurred while actively driving in traffic and was extremely dangerous. I accessed the vehicle’s Service Mode and documented three fault codes that triggered simultaneously at 17:48:14 on March 4, 2026: 1.RSAM_a260_monitorTripDetected ∙Monitor trip detected, system degraded ∙Potential Impact: Steering system performance degraded, vehicle speed limited ∙Only clears on next power-up 2.RSA_a212_activeFault ∙Rear Steer Actuator (RSA) stopped at current position ∙Internal condition detected, defaulted to safe state ∙Fault Reason: CONTROLLER_IRRATIONAL ∙Previous State: RSASTATE_ACTIVE_STEERING (was actively steering when failure occurred) ∙rsamControllerRational = false 3.PEPS_a182_rearSteerDegraded ∙Primary Electric Power Steering (PEPS) detected RSA not functioning as expected ∙Reason: RSA_UNHEALTHY ∙rsaUnhealthy = true ∙rearSteerCommand = -0.59 All three faults were set at 17:48:14 and cleared at 17:50:55. Additionally, an earlier alert — EGGRIGHT3_a203_airwaveLeftLateralUnavailable — was logged on March 2, 2026 at 21:11:08, which may indicate a related or recurring issue. The simultaneous failure of the rear steering actuator and disengagement of FSD while driving at speed represents a serious safety hazard. The RSA controller was flagged as “IRRATIONAL” while the system was in active steering mode, meaning the steering hardware failed during operation — not at startup or in a parked state. I have photographic documentation of both the dashboard steering ERROR warning and all Service Mode diagnostic screens showin

During my last wash of my cybertruck I noticed the cast aluminum wheel has a spoke that was completely cracked through. There was no violent pothole incident or collision to cause the crack. As an engineer I researched the method of manufacture and material of the rims. It is my opinion that the proper knock down factors were not used when designing these wheels for the 7,000 pound vehicle. Castings contain defects as a normal outcome of each pour. Knock down factors allow for castings to be used in design responsibly to preclude brittle failures at the defect locations. The cross sectional area of each spoke is minimal too for aesthetic purposes increasing the stress field in the spoke. This is a cast aluminum wheel taking the shape of a forged or wrought product. Furthermore the wheel covers make it difficult to identify cracks in the wheel since there is no visibility allowing a driver to unknowingly drive on a wheel that has had one or more spokes fail. This wheel is part of the all terrain wheel upgrade. Marketed for off road capability.

I have the Foundation Cyberbeast, the model which has an OEM light bar on windshield. While driving on 2-22-2026 at approximately 3:30 pm on the 5 freeway near Santa Ana, the appx 4 ft long light bar flew off and ricocheted violently on vehicle, while still attached by the power cord. This damaged many parts of my vehicle, specifically the glass roof, front windshield, and various body components which were shattered or scratched. I cut my hands. Your database says there are 0 open recalls and that is a lie by Tesla, because they sent me a notice months ago saying they are awaiting mechanical attachment methods. So they know they need to change the attachment method from epoxy to mechanical, but are falsely reporting to the government that they already did so.

The PCS2 threw an alert that the Cybertruck could no longer charge with AC, but I was unable to do DC charging either. The truck is now a brick. Had I been out of town this would have been a serious safety issue. Think of it as an ICE car not being able to be filled at a gas station.

Since the release of V14, the Full Self-Driving (FSD) system automatically defaults to operating approximately 7 MPH above the posted speed limit. This occurs on all road types, including city streets and highways. When FSD is engaged, the vehicle sets the cruising speed above the detected speed limit without driver input. There is no setting that allows the driver to enforce strict compliance with the posted limit. Available speed settings only permit equal or greater deviation above the speed limit. The driver cannot manually lock or command the system to remain at or below the posted limit while FSD is active. The only way to prevent speeding is to fully disengage FSD. This is not a malfunction. The vehicle is operating as designed under V14. This creates a safety concern because: 1.The system is programmed to exceed legal speed limits by default. 2.The driver does not retain meaningful authority to ensure lawful operation while automation is engaged. 3.Automatic speeding increases crash risk in construction zones, school zones, and changing speed areas. 4.Drivers may receive citations despite not intentionally selecting an unlawful speed. Because this behavior was introduced via V14 software, it likely affects all Tesla vehicles running FSD V14, not just this vehicle.

One day my car would not charge. At all. Luckily, I was at home when this happened, but had it happened to me or worse, my wife it could've been a very scary or dangerous situation. Either one of us could've been stuck with no way of charging. It's like a gas car with no way of putting gas in. The car would not charge from home or other chargers, including Tesla superchargers. When I described the problem to the Tesla dealer, they were very aware of the problem and said that it was the Power Conversion System. There was no prior warning before this happened. Though they are aware of the problem, they are only fixing/replacing them on a warranty basis. Even though they know about the faulty part that they made, and acknowledge, they are not doing a recall or fixing the problem unless you pay for the parts and labor. I asked if this is normal for a car that is under 2yrs old and he said this part can go bad at anytime. The best thing that can happen is for it to happen early while still under warranty. But the part does not break due to wear and tear, or overuse, or abuse. It is due to a faulty design that needs to be replaced. That's why they have a new part that they replace it with now.

The rear passenger-side seat belt retractor is malfunctioning. The seat belt does not properly retract or maintain tension during normal use. The belt remains loose and does not snugly secure the passenger unless manually adjusted multiple times, reducing the effectiveness of the restraint system. This seat is regularly used by a child passenger. Because the seat belt does not function as designed, the safety of a child occupant is compromised, particularly in the event of sudden braking or a collision. This involves a primary safety restraint system. The issue was discovered during normal driving conditions and is repeatable and consistent. The seat belt assembly is available for inspection upon request. No warning lights, alerts, or messages appeared prior to or during the malfunction. The issue was not caused by an accident, impact, or misuse. The vehicle is otherwise operable. The manufacturer was contacted for service. Initially, a service charge of approximately $55 was proposed to inspect or repair the seat belt assembly. After questioning whether a safety restraint system should be subject to a service charge under warranty, the charge was removed. At the time of this report, the issue has not been inspected, repaired, or addressed, and guidance on safe continued use—especially with a child occupying the seat—was delayed by several days.

All the road safety features stopped working all of a sudden. Auto lights. Defaulted to high beams. Lane departure stopped, cruise control stopped, forward emergency braking stopped, rear cross traffic stopped, blind stopped stopped, and other safety’s I am not sure of.

While operating on a public roadway with Tesla Full Self-Driving (Supervised) engaged, the vehicle unexpectedly departed its intended roadway trajectory. Upon recognizing unsafe vehicle behavior, I attempted to manually override and disengage the system using normal driver control inputs. Despite these attempts, the system did not disengage or yield control in a timely or effective manner. The vehicle continued on an unsafe path, left the roadway, and collided with a fence and a tree before meaningful driver control could be restored. This incident raises concerns regarding the reliability of driver override authority and the system’s ability to relinquish control during supervised operation.

On December 23, 2025, my 2024 Tesla Cybertruck (Foundation Series) was operating with Full Self-Driving (FSD – Supervised) engaged. While FSD was active, the vehicle executed an unsafe driving trajectory. I attempted to intervene and regain control; however, the system did not disengage as expected and did not yield control appropriately to driver input. Despite driver intervention attempts, the vehicle continued along the unsafe trajectory, resulting in a loss of control and collision with roadside objects. There were no mechanical warnings or alerts prior to the incident. The issue appears related to system behavior, disengagement logic, and driver override response while FSD was active. The vehicle is currently preserved under a formal litigation hold. No inspection, teardown, or data access has occurred. Tesla has confirmed in writing that it does not modify, delete, or alter vehicle data it has received. I am submitting this complaint due to concerns regarding the safety behavior of Full Self-Driving (Supervised), including the system’s failure to disengage upon driver input and the human-machine interface governing control authority.

At approximately 6:30 PM on January 4, I experienced an incident where the passenger front door unlatched, completely by itself without pressing the unlatched button or pulling the manual release. It has since opened itself again in my driveway. And this can be a very serious issue if it worked to unlatch while driving and the door swings open and causes an accident or hits an object or person which can in terms caused serious injury, or property damage, and even in some cases if a passenger is in the seat in the door and latches without their seatbelt on, it can cause serious injury, and or death. In the event of a passenger falling out.

The contact owns a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck. The contact stated that while driving at a moderate speed on a windy day, a metal piece, approximately 2-3 ft. long and located on the side of the sunroof, detached from the vehicle. The contact managed to recover the piece that detached from the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a Tesla service center, where the failure was acknowledged the failure, and the contact was provided an estimate for the repair. The contact stated that the failure was a manufacturer's defect and that the repair should be free of charge. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 11,000.

I believe there was an issue with the ABS system that kept me from stopping the vehicle, as speed was increasing while going downhill with the brake pedal pushed hard. I was forced to make the choice to steer the vehicle into a mountainside to stop it before I ended up over the side of the mountain road. The vehicle then tipped over, coming to a stop.

While driving on a local road and thank fully at speed of 20mph vehicle lost all power, in few seconds of alerts steering failed as well as brake failed. Car slowly coasted to stop and died completely. Steering and brakes were completely unresponsive all of a sudden while driving. Was only able to get out of car via emergency exit. If this was on a highway at highway speed am very positive it would have been a disaster.

I am submitting this safety complaint as the vehicle owner of a Tesla that was involved in a collision on November 15, 2025. Although I am the policyholder and registered owner, I was not the driver at the time of the incident. My husband, [XXX] , was operating the vehicle, and Tesla Autopilot/FSD was engaged when the loss of control occurred. At the time of the incident, it was raining heavily, though visibility and road conditions were still within what Autopilot typically handles during normal operation. While driving under these conditions with Autopilot activated, the vehicle suddenly exhibited unexpected and erratic steering behavior, causing it to lose stability and veer out of control. The deviation happened rapidly and without sufficient warning or opportunity for my husband to intervene manually. The resulting collision appeared to be the result of an Autopilot system malfunction, not driver error. Key concerns include: Autopilot’s failure to maintain proper lane position Sudden abnormal steering input originating from the system Possible sensor, perception, or weather-related detection failure Lack of adequate warning or disengagement alert prior to the loss of control Tesla Insurance later determined the driver to be “principally at fault,” but this conclusion did not consider the possibility of Autopilot system failure under heavy rain conditions and does not reflect the sequence of events as experienced by the driver. As the vehicle owner, I am requesting that NHTSA review this incident as a potential safety defect involving Tesla’s Autopilot/FSD system. I am concerned that this malfunction—particularly under adverse weather—may also affect other Tesla owners and could indicate a broader systemic safety issue. I am willing to provide additional information, driver statements, documentation, or vehicle data upon request.

While exiting the Chick-fil-A drive-thru lane, I lightly pressed the accelerator to move into the next lane. Suddenly, the vehicle jerked forward very quickly, as if I had floored the accelerator. At the same time, the display showed "Emergency Braking in Progress." It felt as though the truck briefly braked and then rapidly released, causing unexpected acceleration. No collision occurred, but it was startling and very scary.

The contact’s father owns a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck. The contact’s father stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the Autopilot function became inoperable. The contact stated that while engaging the Autopilot function and attempting to make a turn in a residential area, the vehicle unexpectedly accelerated and collided with a tree. The air bags did not deploy during the incident. As a result of the crash, both the contact’s father and nephew sustained injuries and received medical attention at a local emergency room. The contact’s father sustained a rib injury and bruising, while the contact’s nephew suffered an ongoing back injury due to the incident. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed and taken to a body shop. The dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was opened. The approximate failure mileage was 1,500.

Component/System Failed: The primary component failing is the Front Overhead Console Assembly (P-R-N-D manual gear selector/shifter and hazard light switch). The assembly detaches, rattles, and fails to remain securely affixed to the headliner. The defect has been present since delivery (Aug 2024, 208 miles). Safety Risk: The overhead console contains the crucial backup gear selector and the hazard light button. Should the vehicle’s primary touchscreen fail (rendering the main gear selector unusable), reliance on this repeatedly detaching or faulty manual shifter compromises the driver's ability to safely operate the vehicle (Park, Reverse, Neutral, Drive) or activate emergency hazard lights. Problem Confirmation/Inspection: The failure is confirmed by the manufacturer (Tesla Service Centers). Tesla attempted to fix the overhead console defect at least four times. The defect was confirmed again on October 22, 2025 (11936 miles), where Tesla noted only a "slight adjustment... as a temporary fix" and stated a "Permanent fix will be performed on the upcoming visit". The vehicle and its components have been inspected repeatedly by Tesla technicians. Warning Lamps/Symptoms: The primary symptom is the physical rattling, looseness, and detachment of the overhead console/gear selector. The center console can come off at ant time that the windshield visor is detached from the console. This has happened to me several times while I was driving and it caused the cybertruck to shift out of gear and has changed the gear to neutral and park on different occasions. The first time this happened while I drove, I was driving down the street and the car came to a hault when the gear shift cover came loose. This could have caused a serious accident, but fortunately it didnt. This problem existed from the time of delivery & we had to make our 1st service apt on the day we took possession of the truck. This happened several times afterwards and tesla was unable to fix this in 7 attemp

We received a notice from Tesla about a recall involving the cant rail. We reached out to Tesla and they said we must go to a Tesla dealer and the mobile team will not be able to do this repair. We are in South Dakota and the nearest dealer is 6 hours away in Colorado. We asked Tesla to give us a name of a local shop who can do the repair and they said we must go to Tesla. They are unwilling to handle this recall.

On [XXX], [XXX] sat in the left rear-seat of a Cybertruck that was involved in a solo-vehicle collision. [XXX]'s impact injuries were minor. The truck caught fire. The right rear door remained mechanically openable, but its ordinary operation depended on low-voltage electronic buttons located inside the cabin and on the exterior pillar. Those buttons failed after the crash. A man tried to rescue the occupants, but he could not open the doors because the buttons failed and the truck lacks exterior handles. The "armor" glass made it difficult for the rescuer to break open the windows. The mechanical backup releases for the rear doors are concealed beneath the map pocket liner at the bottom of the doors — not feasible to find or use in the smoke, heat and chaos of a post-crash fire. This obscure release left the rear seat occupants with no practical means of egress. [XXX] died of smoke inhalation and burn injuries because he was trapped inside the Cybertruck. Another occupant and the driver also died. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

On [XXX], [XXX] was a right rear passenger in a 2024 Cybertruck. The driver lost control and struck a tree with the driver side against a wall. The truck immediately caught fire. The operation of the doors was powered by a small battery pack which was no longer operational after the impact. The passenger side doors operate off of that battery. Without power, the passenger doors could not open, trapping the driver and passengers in the Cybertruck. The fire moved quickly to the passenger compartment and towards the trapped passengers. The design of the electric doors required passengers who are not familiar with the vehicle to find the location of a manual release hidden from view beneath a panel to remove that panel and pull the manual release mechanism. There are no instructions present to explain to a passenger how to access the manual release. The truck has no exterior door handles. The only means to open the door from the outside was a button located at the base of the B&C pillars. When the electric system failed, that door release button became useless. A rescuer arrived but had no way to open the passenger side doors from the outside. The truck’s “armor glass” windows made forcing entry extraordinarily difficult. The rescuer was able to break the passenger side window with repeated strikes and attempted to rescue [XXX] by extracting her through the front passenger window but was unsuccessful due to the heat from the fire. She was forced to retreat back to the rear seat. She survived the initial collision with no injuries and was fully conscious. She was unable to escape the Cybertruck and was killed due to smoke inhalation and thermal injuries. The failure of the vehicle’s design to provide emergency egress in the event of crash, power loss, and fire created a foreseeable and unreasonable risk of occupant entrapment and death in the event of a collision resulting in power loss. It is available for inspection by the NHTSA. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact leased a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, the windshield wipers turned off. The contact stated that the indicator was inoperable. While depressing the left turn signal, the blinker was slow to respond. While driving on a narrow street, the vehicle swerved to the right. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact received a recall letter related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V170000 (Structure). The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who referred the contact to the dealer. The contact called an unknown dealer in Las Vegas, NV, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was called, but there was no response for two hours. The contact eventually spoke to a representative who suggested that a service appointment should be scheduled using the App. The failure mileage was approximately 5,000.

In a rain situation the wind shield wiper is not operating when it’s pouring rain outside or even a drizzle. The wiper never goes off. It has to be manually turned on for the windshield wiper to actually work. Also, the lighting on the vehicle is very dim because the vehicle pretty much only operates off of two tiny fog lights, and in a low visibility area there’s not enough lighting to actually see the road and bicycle is biking on the roadways even in a dark situations, it’s the same thing not enough lighting to actually see anything on the road.

The adhesive that attaches the front windshield is separating from the front windshield also it appears the the actual windshield is delaminating. This is causing a hazzard to driving. Especially when the sun is coming right at the vehicle.

The gear selector attached to visor often loose and detached during drive, this action put the car gear into neutral immediately and are very dangerous, tesla try to fix this issue 3 time unsuccessful.

Subject: Tesla Cybertruck Recall – Out-of-Pocket Wrap Costs I own a Tesla Cybertruck (VIN: [XXX] ) affected by the recall on Cant Rail Assemblies. Tesla requires the replacement and welding of new assemblies. My truck is custom wrapped by Rogue Films, a Tesla-recommended supplier. Rogue Films quoted $850 to re-wrap the affected areas after the recall repair. Tesla is only offering $300, leaving me to cover the remaining $550. This cost is a direct result of Tesla’s recall, not elective customization. In addition, Tesla does not provide a loaner vehicle during the lengthy repair process, adding further burden. I am filing this complaint because customers should not have to pay out-of-pocket expenses to remedy a manufacturer’s defect under recall. This is a clear case of recall cost shifting to the end customer. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

On May 15, 2025, at around 11:30 AM, my Tesla was involved in a collision while Full Self-Driving (FSD) was engaged. The incident occurred at the Tesla West Covina Dealership. The vehicle struck a barrier wall without any collision warning, suggesting both a failure of the sensors and FSD system. After the incident, Tesla staff directed me to their West Covina Service Center. A service advisor reviewed the dashcam footage with me and acknowledged the crash appeared to result from FSD malfunction. I was told Tesla will cover the repair. However, when I returned on May 26, 2025, I was informed that the dashcam footage was no longer available. I did not delete it and suspect it may have been removed by Tesla personnel. They also then claimed they will not cover any repairs. I have written to their legal department to formally request the video footage and any other data they have regarding the crash. Despite follow-up, Tesla has not responded or released any data. I am reporting this as a possible safety defect and mishandling of evidence. I request NHTSA investigate: The failure of Tesla’s FSD and collision avoidance system. The disappearance of crash footage after review by Tesla staff. Tesla’s lack of response to requests for data and documentation. Thank you for your attention.

I am leasing a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck and have experienced multiple serious and unresolved safety issues. When driving at speeds of 50–60 mph or higher, the Cybertruck begins to shake aggressively, particularly in the front wheels. The vibration makes it difficult to maintain control. I took it to the Tesla dealership, and service staff confirmed there is a known malfunction with the Cybertruck tires. They informed me they are waiting on new tires to arrive, but offered no timeline and sent me home with the issue unresolved. No loaner vehicle was offered, no workaround was provided, and I am still driving a vehicle Tesla knows is defective. In addition, the rear windows malfunction frequently. When I close the rear doors, the windows often jam or freeze. This concerns me because the Cybertruck is built entirely with electronic door systems—there are no manual overrides. If power is lost during a crash, occupants may not be able to exit. This is even more alarming in light of recent reports of Cybertruck-related deaths. Multiple individuals have died in crashes where the battery was damaged or the vehicle caught fire. Power loss caused the doors and windows to become non-functional, and due to Tesla’s armored glass, bystanders couldn’t break the windows to rescue the victims. These people burned alive while trapped inside. This is not a theoretical issue—it has happened. Despite these risks, Tesla has not issued a recall or urgent fix. I’ve made multiple efforts to resolve these problems, but Tesla’s delays, denials, and lack of proactive safety measures are deeply negligent. This is a dangerous vehicle, and I am requesting that NHTSA immediately investigate both the front-end tire instability and the entrapment risk caused by electric-only doors and unbreakable windows. I no longer feel safe driving this Cybertruck and believe others are also at serious risk.

I am filing this complaint regarding Tesla's failure to include the advertised Autosteer feature in my new Cybertruck, which I believe raises serious safety concerns. At the time I ordered my vehicle, Tesla's website and the official Cybertruck Owner’s Manual (archived October 15, 2024) clearly listed Autosteer as a feature included with Autopilot. Tesla also markets Autopilot as a system that “enhances safety and convenience,” which formed a core part of my purchasing decision. I previously owned both a Model 3 and Model Y, both of which had Autosteer included in the base Autopilot, reinforcing that expectation. Upon delivery of my Cybertruck, I learned that Autosteer was not actually included, and Tesla now requires customers to pay for Full Self-Driving (Supervised) to access this core safety function. This change was not communicated prior to purchase or delivery and contradicts both historical Tesla offerings and the documentation available at the time of sale. Tesla’s decision to restrict a safety-related feature—one that assists with lane keeping and crash avoidance—may put my family and others at greater risk. Drivers may assume Autosteer is included based on Tesla’s marketing, which could lead to misuse or over-reliance on the limited Base Autopilot. I contacted Tesla directly and requested a resolution. Despite multiple follow-ups, I received no meaningful response. I believe this matter represents a pattern of deceptive practices and raises legitimate safety concerns regarding what features are expected and what is actually delivered. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate Tesla’s removal of Autosteer from Base Autopilot and its potential implications for consumer safety and transparency in driver-assistance system advertising.

Truck mirror came in contact with a small eucalyptus tree at 65 MPH on the side of the highway during a trip on FSD autopilot. On the way back from the trip, the destination address was put into navigation and the FSD button was pressed. Unbeknownst to me the vehicle had switched from FSD Autopilot to cruise control. The vehicle was swerving all over the road and almost hit a curb and other parked vehicles at 25-30 MPH Also, aside from this case in some areas on the highway the vehicle will cut over the lines and not stay in the lane while in FSD Autopilot. I have NEVER had this issue where FSD Autopilot disengaged after a trip and returning. Once the settings are placed in FSD Autopilot they were never changed unless done manually. There were no alerts/notification telling me FSD/Autopilot was disengaged. I’ve sent a report to Tesla and received an automatic AI response mentioning that FSD or Cruise Control needs to be selected for each trip. This has NEVER been the case.

The wiper on the vehicle can not be controlled and set off manually. The auto wipe system repeatedly turns on and dry wipes the glass which reduces visibility for both the driver as well as the camera based safety systems. This is a software bug that has gone unfixed and unacknoledged by Tesla for over 6 months. This happens on every drive multiple times every day regardless of weather conditions.

I am writing to report an incident that occurred on [XXX] [XXX] while my Cybertruck was operating in Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode. While driving on [XXX] Brooklyn NY with no other moving traffic present, my Cybertruck did not detect a vehicle that was parked improperly—sticking out too far into the lane. The FSD system failed to adjust its path accordingly and struck the side view mirror of my vehicle, causing significant damage to the mirror glass and housing. I understand that FSD is a driver-assist feature that requires supervision, and I was attentive during the drive. However, the clearance of side view mirrors from the driver’s perspective is extremely difficult to judge at street level, and I believe stationary obstacles of this nature should be reliably detected and avoided by the FSD system. This type of incident raises concerns about the performance of FSD in handling stationary objects, especially when the vehicle was otherwise properly supervised and operating in a straightforward environment.

My child received second degree burns from playing the sky force reloaded game on the front display screen. See attached picture taking screen temperature measurements where it exceeds 125 degrees. This is when the truck is not in direct sunlight with the air conditioning running, it appears that the CPU dissipates heat through the screen directly which is not conducive to games that require a kid to keep his fingers on the screen. This is a safety risk that should be re-engineered. We noticed that it does not occur with all games, only with those that require a lot of processing power.

On [XXX], at approximately around [XXX], an incident occurred involving the Auto Park feature of a Tesla vehicle in a quiet parking lot. The conditions were clear, with no adverse weather, obstacles, or surrounding vehicles. The Auto Park function was engaged, and the vehicle reversed and moved forward as expected. However, it failed to stop and collided with a yellow pole directly in front. The front camera feed was visible on the screen, but the vehicle did not detect or recognize the pole, and no collision alert was issued. The incident occurred too quickly to allow manual intervention via the brake pedal. The collision resulted in minor front bumper damage, with repair costs estimated at over $1,500. All incident details and vehicle data have been provided to Tesla for investigation. And they rejected to provide front plastic bumper replacement.

This is a supplemental update to Complaint #11656525 regarding NHTSA Recall 25V170 for my 2024 Tesla Cybertruck (VIN: [XXX] ). On [XXX], Tesla returned my vehicle after performing the recall repair. However, the results are visibly flawed on both sides of the vehicle. One side of the cant rail panel overlaps and is misaligned, while the opposite side is spaced too far apart, leaving a visible gap. The right-side gasket was not seated and required me to manually push it back into place. When I raised concerns, Tesla acknowledged that the misalignment exceeds their own internal tolerance threshold, and I was told that it was due to engineering limitations with the replacement parts. They also indicated I may need to return for new parts once a proper fix is available — implying the current repair may not be final or sufficient. This leaves me driving a vehicle that, in my view, remains structurally compromised, potentially vulnerable to panel instability, water intrusion, or corrosion — especially given Colorado’s weather and road conditions. The original recall involved panels detaching while driving. This level of misfitment does not inspire confidence in the safety or durability of the so-called remedy. Wait to schedule another appointment for another reinstall. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

NHTSA Safety Complaint – Recall 25V170 (Tesla Cybertruck 2024) Vehicle Details: •Make/Model/Year: Tesla Cybertruck 2024 •VIN: [XXX] •Recall Number: 25V170 •Recall Notification Date: March 18, 2025 Issue Summary: I am filing this complaint due to Tesla’s failure to provide a timely remedy for an open safety recall (NHTSA Recall Number 25V170) affecting my 2024 Cybertruck. I was notified of the recall on March 18, 2025, and I have since attempted to schedule service appointments to address the issue. Service Attempts: I scheduled appointments with Tesla on the following dates: •April 4, 2025 •April 29, 2025 •May 7, 2025 Each appointment was canceled by Tesla, citing that the recall remedy was not yet available. When I inquired further, Tesla customer service was unable to provide a timeline for when a remedy would become available. Impact: I am currently out of the country for work until mid-August and have been listing my Cybertruck on the Turo car-sharing platform to cover its monthly payments. Due to this recall and Tesla’s inability to resolve it, Turo has unlisted the vehicle, citing the recall as a safety hazard. As a result, the vehicle is now sitting idle, generating no income, while I continue to make monthly payments on it. This has caused financial hardship due to the loss of expected income. Conclusion: It has now been over seven weeks since the recall was issued, and no remedy has been offered. I believe this delay is unreasonable and request that NHTSA investigate Tesla’s handling of Recall 25V170 and require the manufacturer to provide a timely remedy.

Front drivers seat moves under hard turning. Clicking noises and the feeling that the seat is either shifted left or right depending on direction of last sharp turn. Tesla has admitted it’s a design defect after 4th attempt to fix. 2 different technicians test drove the vehicle and confirmed the issue; online Cybertruck forums discuss the problem as well. Problem apparent immediately after purchase. I’m concerned that the sear will not hold up as designed in an accident

I am reporting a safety defect on my 2024 Tesla Cybertruck related to Recall 25V170 (cant rail panel detachment hazard). Tesla has confirmed in writing that no remedy is available for my VIN, and they canceled my scheduled service appointment due to this. I explicitly requested that my appointment not be canceled because I felt unsafe driving the vehicle. I also disclosed my safety concerns to Tesla, explaining that this is my primary mode of transportation. Despite my follow-ups, Tesla provided no timeline for repair, leaving me without a safe vehicle. This recall involves a structural panel that may detach while driving, creating a serious road hazard and risk of injury to me and others. Tesla’s inability to fix or address this defect in a timely manner violates federal recall law (49 U.S.C. § 30120(c)). I request that NHTSA investigate this issue and ensure Tesla provides a timely remedy or refund.

At highway speeds (typically between 70–80 mph), the driver’s side door of my Tesla Cybertruck begins to visibly vibrate and emit wind noise. The vibration is strong enough that I can see the door flexing from inside the cabin. It is not subtle — it shakes to the point that I’ve become genuinely concerned for my safety. At times, it feels unstable enough that I worry the door could detach, which could lead to a serious accident or even death. It is scary, and no vehicle should behave this way at normal highway speeds. I have returned to the Tesla service center seven times for this issue. During my most recent visit, a technician was finally able to reproduce and confirm the problem. I greatly appreciate that the local manager is now taking it seriously, but up until this point, I’ve repeatedly been told “it’s normal,” which it absolutely is not. From what I’ve gathered online, many other Cybertruck owners have reported similar experiences. Some mention a service bulletin and a bracket fix, but I have not received a definitive solution despite the repeated visits. No warning lights or system messages appear when this happens, and the issue only occurs at high speeds. This vehicle has been inspected numerous times by Tesla technicians, but the vibration remains unresolved. I’m reporting this because I believe it reflects a design or manufacturing defect, and I’m deeply concerned about the safety implications if this issue is not addressed.

While driving with Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system engaged, my vehicle struck two standard traffic cones in a clearly marked construction zone. The system failed to detect the cones or make any evasive action. I have video evidence of the incident. The situation was extremely dangerous. The cones could easily have been construction workers, pedestrians, or something more severe. I hesitated to intervene because it happened in a split second, and I was trusting the system to respond — which it completely failed to do. In that moment, I was also faced with a difficult choice: swerve and potentially cause a more serious accident, or trust that FSD would navigate correctly. It didn’t. The impact caused damage to my vehicle. When I brought it to Tesla, the technician dismissed my concern, laughed, and sarcastically told me, “There’s no way we’re paying for it.” He said it was my responsibility to avoid the cones — even while FSD was fully engaged. That kind of response is unacceptable, especially when Tesla markets this system as being capable of handling real-world driving environments like construction zones. This incident shows a significant failure in Tesla’s FSD recognition and decision-making systems. There were no warnings or alerts prior to the impact. The event raises major safety concerns, not only for the driver but for anyone on or near the road. I’m reporting this because I believe Tesla's current version of FSD has critical deficiencies that could lead to injury or worse. The system should never ignore basic road hazards like cones, and the company's dismissive response after the fact is alarming.

On taking the exit on the freeway, the accelerator and the brakes were unresponsive and the vehicle took control and no longer responded to the driver's actions. Then it hit the sidewalk , the tires bursted and the wind shied cracked. The vehicle drove over the side walk with bursted tires and then it stopped.

The contact began to notice that the vehicle failed to detect the vehicle slowing down and the contact attempted to manually stop the vehicle. The contact crashed into the vehicle which resulted in a three-vehicle collision. The air bags failed to deploy upon impact; as a result, the contact hit her chest on the steering wheel. The contact was taken to the hospital via an ambulance and was treated for neck, back and chest pain. The two other vehicle occupants sustained both neck and back injuries but did not seek medical treatment. The whereabouts of the other drivers were unknown. A police report was filed(report unavailable). The vehicle was initially towed to an independent tow yard. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and later towed the vehicle to an authorized Tesla service center where it remained in their possession. The current condition of the vehicle remains unknown. The failure mileage was 5,149.

The contact owns a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck. The contact stated that while waiting at a railroad track with the Full Self-Driving (FSD) feature activated, the destination was entered, and the railroad lights and gate were lowered when suddenly the Full Self-Driving (FSD) disengaged independently. The traffic light turned green, and the driver was required to take control of the vehicle. During the independent disengagement of the Full Self-Driving (FSD) feature, the vehicle abruptly accelerated. The contact was concerned that the failure might have result in a crash, had he not taken control of the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck. The contact stated while driving 49 MPH with the Full Self-Driving (FSD) activated, the destination was entered, and the system announced the direction steps and suddenly the Full Self-Driving (FSD) disengaged independently causing the driver to be required to take control of the vehicle. During the independent disengagement of the Full Self-Driving (FSD), the vehicle abruptly accelerated and almost struck another vehicle in a head-on collision. The contact was concerned that the failure could result in a crash if other vehicles were in the opposite direction. On a separate occasion, the contact stated that the Full Self-Driving (FSD) was engaged and driving at various speeds, and the vehicle independently maneuvered into oncoming traffic on a 2-lane road causing the contact to have to take control of the vehicle. A crash was avoided; however, the contact was concerned that if there had been a median barrier it could have resulted in a crash. In addition, the contact stated there was a second occasion where the vehicle was in Full Self-Driving (FSD) and veered into oncoming traffic, and manual control of the vehicle was required. The failure was not recorded via the Tesla App. A dealer was contacted, and a service appointment was scheduled for a diagnostic test. The Tesla Service Advisor informed the contact that there was nothing in the systems logs that there was an error, and the dealer was not able to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure several times. The failure mileage was approximately 2,000.

on [XXX], I was driving my cybertruck on highway, at speed 55mph. the stainless panel on driver side, the one, on top of the windows, suddenly start falling off. This is the first winter for cybertruck. the stainless panel is hard and sharp enough to hit other cars. I pulled the car over. Please see my pictures below. Also, i included the youtube link here for your reference. [XXX] This is a serious safety issue. because the body side's stainless panels are glued on the frame with some kind of adhesive, metal to metal, and the nuts hold the frame to the body. Due to the cold temperature and the glued dry up. the stainless panels start falling off. i took a pictures of the new parts to proof that the stainless panel is glued by adhesive to the black frame INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

On [XXX], while driving highways for over 2 hours, the windshield became very dirty with dried debris from the road. I activated the window cleaning function on the steering wheel ( for the first time) and could not clear the dirt from the passenger side. I tried many times, but no result. The drivers side did clean acceptably. But not the passenger side! I could see arcs on the windshield where the wiper attempted to drop fluid. There were 8 or 9 such arcs left after the wiper withdrew. I did see cleaning solvent near the outside of the windshield. But I could not see out of the windshield. Reported same to Teslas customer svc and a service visit was scheduled for Jan. 8, 2025. By this time I had manually cleaned the window and verified the solvent well was full. Svc agent said, no one else complaining and system is operating 100% as designed. Experienced same situation again on [XXX]. Customer svc again scheduled an on site svc call for Feb 7 2025. I then saw on facebook, over 50 other people complaining of exactly the same problem. Most had tried svc and heard the same informational as I. Some included photos of the problem, some had their wiper or pump replaced, other e told that Tesla was planning an OTA update to cure the problem. I did a walk-in to svc on Jan 27,2025, and was told there is no guidance from corporate on this matter and that as far as they knew, corporate was not aware of the problem.

When driving in a winter storm, headlights quickly become snow packed rendering them useless. This is extremely dangerous driving in any snowstorm at night. The light bar does not provide sufficient visibility at night and also can become ice packed.

The wiper will not clear the windshield it only smears and leaves streaks causing visibility issues. The automated wiping feature also does not operate properly and it will wildly wipe at high speed with nothing on the window and then do nothing when it is covered in water and road dirt. It will also dry wipe for no reason and smear what ever is on the window causing a visibility issue and then with the unfortunate combination of poor washer fluid output and poor blade contact it cannot clean the windshield properly. To be clear, it does not just take awhile to clean, it cannot clean the window regardless of how long you use the wiper wash function. It is a complete failure and I cannot get Tesla to address it. I made an appointment Dec. 6th for Jan. 31st (first available) and it was pushed, with no reason, to Feb 27th. After my current business trip, I will be discontinuing driving the vehicle if there is any chance of bad weather, it is that bad of an visibility issue and would be as unsafe as me driving without my glasses, looking through streaks and haze obscure important details I feel I cannot see the roadway good enough to operate the Cybertruck safely.

When any salt or other road debris is present on the windshield, the windshield wiper along with the washer fluid does not clean the windshield. Instead the windshield visibility is worse leading to low visibility. Overall I believe there are two flaws: 1. The wiper does not have enough downward force to keep enough contact with the windshield 2. When you attempt to clean using the washer fluid spray there is not enough washer fluid sprayed onto the windshield. Instead the amount is so low that it leads to additional streaking causing additional visibility issues. Due to this anytime I drive with salt on the roads I am at an increase risk to any issues that can occur during lower visibility while driving. Many others have also reported the same behavior [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The newest Tesla vehicles coming out of the factory with an unannounced HW4 computer upgrade, dubbed AI4.1, are seeing them short-circuit and die down shortly after purchase. In some case, the new AI4 computer gives up the ghost after several hundred miles, rendering not only the FSD feature, but the cameras and GPS navigation hence range estimates unavailable, too. I believe it's a safety defect and the VIN was used to be able to submit the form, it seems to affect most new Tesla vehicles. Thank you

I was driving in a rain storm and the wiper started to malfunction. Would only clean half the windshield. Then shut off completely.

When driving during a snow storm, the headlights of the Cyberteuck become covered in snow and ice. The main headlights that produce most of the light are just under the frunk in an inset groove. Because of the nature of the design it catches snow it collects in that location. Because of the LED headlights there’s not enough heat to melt away the snow. At night your lights slowly fade away until you can barely see anything. Photo is not my vehicle but my friend’s who reported same problem.

When driving in snow, the snow accumilates in front of the recessed headlights on top of the front bumper and makes night driving impossible.

The headlight design, being behind and slightly above the front bumper, allows snow to accumulate in front of the headlights while parked and while driving. This prevents visibility in low-light conditions for both the vehicle driver and for other drivers.

NHTSA has created a safety risk by forcing FSD to have extreme monitoring. While in FSD I have to go back to normal driving to change the station on the radio or look at my phone. This is something I do in my non fsd vehicles all the time. The reason for me purchasing FSD is to be safer. Your ridiculous overreach may actually kill me.The entire purpose is to reduce distracted driving, yet your ridiculous rules force an unsafe environment. I hope whoever pushed these restrictions realizes they are accountable for the crashes and deaths they create for forcing people out of FSD.

While driving at night on autopilot last night on the highway, the frunk opened. It blocked our view, luckily it was not busy on the highway and we were able to pull to the side It took multiple attempts to close it back again

1. CHMSL Requirement: FMVSS No. 108 mandates a center high-mounted stop lamp (CHMSL) on passenger vehicles, typically a single lamp centered and positioned above the rear stop lamps. In cases where design constraints prevent a single CHMSL, two identical lamps are permissible, provided they are symmetrically mounted above the other stop lamps. 2. Cybertruck's Rear Light Bar: The Cybertruck’s rear light bar does not appear to comply with this standard, as it presents a continuous light bar rather than a distinct, centrally mounted CHMSL or two identical, high-mounted stop lamps.

Cyber truck does not have a center high mounted signal lamp and higher than the other 2 rear lamps.

The windshield wiper was replaced under recall with a faulty wiper that is actually more dangerous than the original and Tesla is known about this issue for months and haven't corrected it or stopped replacing working units with faulty ones. Please HELP with this issue before someone gets injured or killed by their negligence. I have made multiple attempts with Tesla service and tried all their contacts and am getting zero resolutions. Thanks

Took vehicle in for service they replace the wiper motor under warranty with the faulty one that is more unsafe than the previous one. And they refuse to fix it. Research shows they knew about this for months, yet continue to risk owners safety by replacing working units with faulty ones. Then have it taken or leave an attitude.

We were driving on the freeway yesterday September 3rd at 9:30pm and my passenger side door swung open while on the entrance ramp to highway 24. My infant was sitting in that passenger side in her carseat and thankfully she wasnt injured. A car could have collided with that door or it could have hit anything outside resulting in extreme damage, injury, or death. Upon inspection of the door latch, the door latch is almost completely unhinged. The screw cam off, and the latch simply swivels and does not lock the door or hold it in place. We had to drive home with our hand physically holding the door closed. My driver side door also seems to not be fully latching - though it is not in as bad condition. But upon driving it, you can feel an airgap with the sound at higher speeds which suggests to me that this door latch is also at extreme risk of failure. These two doors are the only ones commonly used by us. But given they are both seemingly failing, my guess is that all four door latches are defective and at immediate risk of causing harm, injury, or death to those Cybertrucks on the road with the same latch.

Received a “critical error” message on the screen and was advised to pull over. After doing so and putting the vehicle in “park” I was unable to take the vehicle out of park or move it at all. This would have been very dangerous if it occurred in an unsafe neighborhood or busy highway. Couldn’t even take it out of park for the tow truck driver to get it onto the flatbed so he had to use “skates” to pull it onto the truck. There were many different error messages appearing on the screen related to different systems in the car so I suspect some sort of electrical defect caused multiple systems to fail simultaneously. I uploaded a couple of pics of some of the messages below.

Brand new car. No accident. The Front and rear passenger doors noted to be misaligned from beginning (with sharp edges). It’s a hazard. Tesla says nothing they can do about it. Unacceptable.

Large driver's touchscreen in the Cybertruck gets really, really hot. Brought it to Tesla for a service today (August 5th, 2024) and they said the screen is working as expected. They showed me another vehicle and it also had the 110 to 125 degree screen. This can burn skin if you're older and lacking nerves or a child (which Tesla encourages to use the screen with their video games). As this is a design defect and not a one-off part issue, I'd personally like to see this recalled. There are other people complaining about the same issue on this very new vehicle -- [XXX] Worth noting that this high temperature is produced in the lower center area of the screen. Tesla Service says it's due to the computer processor being located in that area with no way for the heat to dissipate (ie, a TV would have room behind it to dissipate the heat, but the Cybertruck has that area blocked).

Driving at Approximately 70miles an hour on a divided highway and the top right plastic trim between the back window and the steel side came loose and flew off into traffic behind me creating a road hazard for other motorists. I drove back and picked up the shattered pieces off the highway, no incident was filed with the authorities since there was no accident. I’ve scheduled a service appointment to replace the trim.

As Tesla has been the one to initiate the recall, I would have assumed my truck would instantly in the list. Appointments are booked out weeks in advance, and Tesla won't allow me to create an appointment now.

Rear trim piece missing clips, flaps in the wind, others have had theirs fly off

I purchased 2024 Tesla cybertruck and got the delivery of the truck on May 11th 2024. One the very first day I experienced a critical warning that stated " Critical Steering issue detected" and it started beeping loudly and I was unable to steer it. Now I am unable to drive the car as I have a whole lust of critical alerts that pop up on the screen. I am concerned about my safety and others on the road. One of the warning says "loss of system redundancy detected. Unable to shift out of park because vehicle has detected loss of redundancy. The vehicle may suddenly lose electrical power, steering and propulsion, and maybe unable to apply the parking break." I tried contacting Tesla emergency roadside support and they just keep me on hold and I am unable to reach a real person. I tried scheduling a service appointment but these warnings are critical and is a potential safety concern.

MoThe air suspension is stuck saying it cannot adjust. The car states that there is an electrical issue. As an electric car electrical issues seems to be a concerning error message to receive. The service center has stated a part was replaced two times but the error message remains. The error is in reference to exhausting from the valve block. This removes the ability to utilize any of the adjustments and potential water wade mode. The service center said a redesign is in the works, but no such redesign is in the works.

While driving vehicle a prompt flashed on the screen saying “power reduced, steering performance reduced due to overheating”. Then the next screen said “critical steering issue detected pull over”. Then I got a loss of system redundancy detected. This has happened twice in one week and I’ve towed it to Tesla twice.

Accelerator pedal slipped and lodged in trim making vehicle pin the acceleration pedal to the floor.
