2016 Tesla MODEL X problems and owner complaints

ON APRIL 30, MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING MY NEW MODEL X ON THE FREEWAY. IT WAS A SUNNY DAY. HE DISENGAGED AUTOPILOT TO CHANGE FREEWAYS. AFTER HE CHANGED FREEWAYS, HE RE-ENGAGED AUTOPILOT. THE CAR FOLLOWED THE CURVE ON THE NEW FREEWAY, TURNING TO THE RIGHT, BUT WHEN THE FREEWAY STRAIGHTENED OUT, THE CAR KEPT TURNING AND HIT A GUARDRAIL ON THE RIGHT SIDE. NO WARNING, NO BRAKING, NO STOPPING. TESLA TELLS US THAT THE AUTOPILOT WAS NOT RE-ENGAGED AND WAS JUST IN CRUISE CONTROL (I DON'T KNOW HOW THE CAR WOULD BE FOLLOWING THE CURVE IN THE ROAD THEN). ALSO…

TESLA IS NOW ALLOWING WEB BROWSING BY THE DRIVER WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION.WATCH THIS VIDEO FROM TIME 27:00 HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=AEU5OL2IR4M THIS IS CONTRARY TO WHAT TESLA HAVE PREVIOUSLY CLAIMED WHICH IS THAT BROWSING IS NEVER ALLOWED WHILE DRIVING. I DON'T THINK THAT I NEED TO SPELL OUT THE DANGERS CREATED BY THIS SITUATION. THERE ARE SO MANY TESLA SHOWING UP IN THE SAVAGE YARDS THAT HAVE BEEN IN MAJOR FRONT END COLLISIONS THAT THERE MUST BE A PROBLEM WITH DRIVER DISTRACTION OR BRAKE FAILURE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE.

TAKATA RECALL I DROVE MY TESLA MODEL X 2016 TODAY TO WORK AND WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO PARK THE CAR IN THE PARKING LOT (AROUND 6 MILES PER HOUR MAY BE) IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND HIT THE CONCRETE WALL AND BOUNCED BACK AROUND 8 FEET. SINCE IT WAS FOR PARKING I CAN SURELY SAY THAT I DID NOT ACCELERATE THE CAR. THE STEERING AIR BAGS AND KNEE AIR BAGS CAME OFF AND ALSO THE PASSENGER SIDE KNEE AIR BAGS CAME OFF AS WELL. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND THERE SEEMS TO BE A CLASS ACTION SUITE ON THIS ISSUE BUT TESLA IS NOT ACCEPTING IT AS THE GLITCH IN THEIR SOFTW…

THIS IS A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE TESLA MODEL X AND MODEL S UNINTENDED ACCELERATION INCIDENTS. IT APPEARS THAT TESLA IS STILL USING AN ACCELERATOR PEDAL THAT HAS ONLY A SINGLE SENSOR. THIS PEDAL IS SUPPLIED BY FORD WHO HAVE A HISTORY OF UA INCIDENTS INVOLVING ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL. SOME MANUFACTURERES HAVE NOW SWAPPED TO A DUAL SENSOR 6 WIRE SYSTEM. IN THE EVENT OF A BAD INPUT FROM ONE SENSOR THIS TRIGGERS A FAULT CODE AND DISABLES THE ACCELERATOR. TESLA HAS REPEATEDLY CLAIMED THAT IN ALL THESE INCIDENTS THE LOGS SHOW 100% THROTTLE. THI…

THERE ARE KEY FOBS, ONE EACH FOR THE TWO DRIVERS IN THE HOUSE. THESE ARE IDENTIFIED IN THE PROFILE SETTINGS. FOR THE PAST FOUR YEARS, AFTER A SPECIFIC UPDATE TO THE FIRMWARE (I CAN’T PINPOINT WHICH OR THE PRECISE MONTH/YEAR), USING A KEY FOB WILL FREQUENTLY, BUT ERRATICALLY CHOOSE THE WRONG PROFILE. BECAUSE OF THE DIFFERENCE IN DRIVER HEIGHTS, THIS MAY MEAN THAT THE SEAT IS ADJUSTING FORWARD CAUSING KNEES TO QUICKLY APPROACH THE AREA OF THE DASHBOARD. AS ONE EXAMPLE WHERE I HAVE PINPOINTED WHEN THIS IS LIKELY TO OCCUR, I WILL HAVE FINISHED CHAR…

The Model S and X has a recall for vehicles from 2015 to October 2016 builds. The recall is about the "parking break not released" when shifting to drive. My Model X is built in November 2016 and occasionally gets the warning of "parking break not released" from time to time. I would like to aware you guys and to please look into this issue that im facing. It may help if you guys over at NHTSA can look into what parking break Part numbers are installed on models earlier than my November 2016 built. Thanks!
