HTTP://WWW.COPART.COM/US/LOT/26810486?SEARCHID=935758582 THE FRONT RH SIDE IS BADLY DAMAGED AND THE WHEEL IS MISSING. THIS MAY BE HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY THE COLLISION WITH THE NISSAN. THE REAR LH WHEEL IS BENT OVER AT AN EXTREME ANGLE WHICH IS TYPICAL OF REAR SUSPENSION BREAKAGE ON THE TESLA.

HERE IS A BURNED OUT TESLA IN THE JUNKYARD. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=24822571&ROWNUMBER=40&LOADRECENT=TRUE THE FRONT LH WHEEL IS JAMMED BACK IN THE WHEEL ARCH. THE FRONT LH TIRE SHOWS SIGNS OF HAVING BEEN GOUGED WHILE IT WAS STILL ROTATING. THE LOWER SUSPENSION ARM IS LYING ON THE GROUND. A WHEEL LINER IS LYING INSIDE THE CAR BUT IT IS NOT FIRE DAMAGED. THIS STRONGLY SUGGESTS THAT IT WAS RECOVERED FROM THE ROADWAY AND IS FURTHER EVIDENCE THAT SUSPENSION FAILURE CAUSED THE WHEEL TO JAM UP INTO THE WELL AND WAS THE MAIN CAUSE OF THE CRASH. THE TESLA SUSPENSIONS ARE FAILING FAR TO OFTEN AND THE FIRE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN SOLVED BY THE FLIMSY TITANIUM BATTERY SHIELDS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE.

PLEASE NOTE I HAVE USED A FICTITIOUS ADDRESS TO SATISFY THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE WEBSITE. I AM NOT A US RESIDENT, JUST A CONCERNED CITIZEN I HAVE ALREADY REPORTED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TESLA REAR SUSPENSION AND I AM FINDING SEVERAL CASE WHERE THE FRONT SUSPENSION HAS FAILED AND CAUSED A CRASH. THIS VEHICLE HAS CRASHED AND BURNED AND IS FOR SALE AS SALVAGE. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLES/VEHICLEDETAILS.ASPX?AUCTIONID=0&ITEMID=19224036&ROWNUMBER=0&LOADRECENT=TRUE I HAVE ENLARGED THE IMAGES AND YOU CAN SEE THAT THE LH SUSPENSION HAS COME APART AND THE SUSPENSION ARM IS LYING ON THE GROUND. THE FRONT STEEL SAFETY GIRDER IS UNDAMAGED SO THE SUSPENSION COULD NOT HAVE BEEN DAMAGED BY HITTING AN OBJECT. THE RIM AND SPOKES OF THE WHEEL ARE INTACT ALSO. THE CRASH(?) CAUSED A FIRE IN THE BATTERY PACK. I BELIEVE THESE CARS POSE A SERIOUS RISK TO THE DRIVER AND OTHER ROAD USERS.

I was involved in a significant vehicle crash with my Tesla Model S, the vehicle wa a complete write-off and was towed away. I was taken via ambulance unconscious from my injuries. The vehicle was struck by a perpendicular vehicle who ran a stop sign and hit the front driver's side firewall/door area. The impact was hard enough to drive my car sideways against all wheels into the curb, over the curb, onto the sidewalk, and into a pole. My head hit the drivers window hard enough to break the glass and render me unconscious. No airbags deployed, curtain/seat/otherwise - no side impact airbags even. Seatbelt was worn, I was extracted by first responders - I later spoke with Tesla regarding my complaint of no air bag protection, and was told they would take this seriously and investigate. I later found out the car was auctioned off (presumably for scrap) with no evidence of Tesla even attempting an investigation and zero response indicating otherwise. After reaching out again to Tesla seeking a response, they assured me that they have GPS coordinates, Police Reports, asked for pictures (which I did send), and they promised to respond - that was more than 5 months ago and still no answers.

The contact owns a 2015 Tesla Model S. The contact stated that while he, his wife, and his son were in the vehicle he had begun veering right pulling into the driveway, at approximately 5 MPH, he had begun slightly releasing the brakes when the vehicle suddenly accelerated at accelerated high speeds. The contact immediately depressed the brake pedal however the vehicle speed continued to accelerate. As a response, the contact attempted to maneuver the vehicle to avoid crashing into the garage. The contact crashed into a nearby tree, jumped the curb, and became airborne crashing into the side of the home. The driver's side of the vehicle crashed into the side of the home where the laundry room was located ricocheting hitting the kitchen and bedroom windows and eventually coming to a stop. Due to the home being on a slope, the vehicle ended up falling into a nearby embankment after coming to a stop. All air bags deployed. The vehicle was towed. The contact was informed by insurance the vehicle would more than likely be totaled however this had not been confirmed. A police report was filed. The contact received emotional distress, cuts, and bruising to their hands. arms and forehead. The contact also suffered from back pain. The contact's wife sat in the rear on the driver's side and received emotional distress, trouble breathing, bruising on their face, and bleeding in the mouth. Their wife also received neck, back, and head pain. The contact stated that their wife ended up falling to the floor of the vehicle as a result of the crash. The contact's son sat in the rear on the passenger's side and received emotional distress, and back and neck pain. All persons received medical attention on-site, such as cleaning the wounds and icing any bruising. They were advised to seek additional care, however, have not been able to do so as of yet. The crash caused damage to the wall and flooring structures, electricity, and water systems in the home. The vehicle had not been taken to the dealer. The cause of the failure had n

April 21, 2023 me and my daughter was driving from Jacksonville Beach to Fernandina Beach around 6pm. Exiting from 295 to i95, I removed my autopilot to reduce speed, I was very focus driving, not on my cellphone and even sleepy. Then I saw the car in front of me suddenly stopped, i know i have enough distance and confidently press the break hard enough to make it stop. But the tesla, while started beeping loud as it sensored the sudden stop of the car , seems to just slowed down and not stopping even with the full hard press of the break, the Tesla just keep on moving slow until it just hit the car and we just heard a loud bang from the airbags that blew up, gas fumes all over inside the car, shocked with what happened, I immediately opened the car door due to the gas fumes. It was traumatizing. I have been driving for almost 20 years, a lot of experience from high way to city driving, years of experience with crazy Manila traffic and highways, using different kind of cars, SUV, family van, even U-Haul, I am very familiar with how breaks work and how breaks could save life and save from accidents even with a split seconds, but the experience with Tesla’s break system is different. With this crash with Tesla, I remember this was not the first time the break didn’t work as expected. Had the same instance happened before with Tesla, though we didn’t hit any car but almost – me and my daughter together with her classmate was driving to school. Suddenly the car in front stopped due to the traffic light turned red. Again the car started beeping loud, I know we have enough distance and confidently press the break, but to my surprise, and the kids started getting scared when the Tesla seemingly not stopping and seemingly gonna hit the car as it continuous to drive and the break not helping to stop quickly even when the break was fully pressed.I believe this is a serious issue.My car now assessed Total Loss and just paid for market value, lost $20k in a year span

I was behind a car at a stop light when a SUV hit me very hard from behind, I hit the car in front of me. My face hit the steering wheel, 2 teeth came out whole, ripped from the gums, one tooth pushed up into my upper jaw. I got a laceration on my lower lip. i hit my forehead left side of my mouth and nose (very swollen, deviates to the right).

The contact owns a 2015 Tesla Model S. The contact stated that while driving at 70 mph, the vehicle went into autopilot and crashed into the median divider. No medical attention was received on the scene but the contact later went to the hospital for injuries sustained. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the contact's girlfriend's residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired and will be towed to a body shop to examine if it is totaled. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that they would contact back after their investigation. The failure mileage was 51,720.

8:15 AM, 6/19/20, I HEAD A SICKENING THWACK FROM THE STREET FROM ABT 300 YDS AWAY. EERILY, BEC SOMETHING VERY LARGE WAS HIT WITH NO SOUND OF SQUEALING BRAKES OR CRIES, I WENT OUT FRONT TO LOOK LEFT WITHOUT SEEING ANYTHING. THEN I LOOKED RIGHT AND SAW A MAN CROUCHED TO THE GROUND BESIDE A CAR. I IOOKED FURTHER RT & SAW THE BACK OF A MAN THROWN FACE-FIRST INTO MY TREES. I DIDN'T IMME REGISTER WHAT I WAS LOOKING AT UNTIL I RECOGNIZED THE BODY AS MY HUSBAND, SCREAMED, & RAN TO HIM. HE WAS SNORING LOUDLY. I WAS AFRAID TO TOUCH HIM, SO I HOVERED OVER HIM CALLING HIS NAME. HE DID NOT RESPOND. I TURNED TO THE STREET, SCREAMING AT PASSERS-BY TO CALL 911. THE CROUCHING MAN SAID HE HAD, BUT I WAS FEARFUL OF HIM & THOUGHT, "HOW DO I KNOW YOU HAVE? WHY ARE YOU SO FAR AWAY? DIDN'T YOU EVEN COME OVER TO CHECK ON HIM?" I KEPT SCREAMING AS DRIVERS STOPPED THEIR CARS AND PEOPLE GATHERED. OUR 19-YR-OLD DAUGHTER CAME RUNNING OUT OF THE HOUSE, FOLLOWED BY OUR 17 AND 15-YR-OLD SONS. AN AMBULANCE CAME AND TOOK MY HUSBAND, REFUSING ME BECAUSE OF COVID. THEN I SPOKE WITH 1 OF 2 POLICE WHILE THE OTHER SPOKE TO THE DRIVER OF THE TESLA. HE SAID THE DRIVER ADMITTED TO BEING ON HIS PHONE AS THE CAR DROVE ITSELF, NEVER SEEING MY HUSBAND AND DRIVING 45 MPH. WHEN HE SAID I COULD LEAVE, I WENT TO THE ER WHERE I WAS IMME TOLD MY HUSBAND HAD SUSTAINED SEVERE BRAIN DAMAGE TO BOTH SIDES OF HIS BRAIN AND CATASTROPHIC OTHER INJURIES. A POLICE INVESTIGATOR MET ME AT THE ER. INVESTIGATION OF THE VEHICLE & DOWNLOAD OF THE COMPUTER WERE COMPLETED AT POLICE STATION. I WAS TOLD THE TESLA HAD BEEN IN 1 PRIOR AX, BUT HAD NOT REGISTERED "AN EVENT" ON 6/19. LAWYER PRESENT DID SAY THE CAR WAS IN "AUTOPILOT" & SEV SYSTEMS HAD MALFUNCTIONED: AIRBAG, BRAKING, WARNING SOUND, VEERING AWAY, ETC. I WAS LATER TOLD HE WAS DOA, BUT BROUGHT BACK.10 MOS LATER, HUSBAND IS A NON-COMMUNICATING QUADRIPLEGIC, SEVERE TBI, FEEDING TUBE.

MY TERSLA EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN ACCELERATION EVENT ON JULY 31, 2019. IT WAS BEING PARKED IN A TARGET PARKING LOT ABOUT TO BE PUT IN PARK WHEN IT SUDDENLY EXPERIENCED A FULL ACCELERATION. IT JUMPED OVER A 6 TO 8 FOOT WIDE CONCRETE MERIDIAN, TOOK OUT A BUSH AND HIT A PARKED PICK-UP, MOVING IT ABOUT 15 FEET AND TOTALING THE TRUCK. THE CAR HAD ALMOST $40,000 IN DAMAGE AND THE DRIVER WAS INJURED. TELSA FIRST SAID THEY WOULD HAVE THEIR READ OUT IN ONE WEEK THEN 3, THEN 4 - FINALLY AFTER ABOUT 4 MONTHS THEY SAID IT WAS DRIVER ERROR BUT THE DRIVER DENIES TOUCHING THE GAS OR BRAKE. SHE WAS ALREADY STOPPED AND IT HAPPENED SO FAST SHE DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO REACT.

REPORTEDLY A 2015 TESLA MODEL S ON "AUTOPILOT" CRASHED INTO A LAGUNA BEACH POLICE PATROL VEHICLE ON TUESDAY ABOUT 11AM 5-29-18 @ 20652 LAGUNA CANYON ROAD, LAGUNA BEACH, CALIFORNIA. THE DRIVER OF THE TESLA WAS INJURED. THE DRIVER IS PROBABLY AT FAULT FOR INATTENTIVE DRIVING, HOWEVER THE HYPE FROM TESLA, ELON MUSK AND THE CULT FOLLOWING HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO TESLA DRIVERS DRIVING RECKLESSLY BY OVERHYPING THE SAFETY AND AUTONOMY OF TESLA VEHICLES. IT SEEMS THE VEHICLE LEFT THE DRIVING LANE AND ENTERED THE PARKING LANE AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. REPORTEDLY ELON MUSK AND OTHER MANAGEMENT REJECTED SENSORS AND OTHER TECHNOLOGY THAT COULD HAVE IMPROVED SAFETY AND AUTONOMY. REPORTEDLY TESLA MANAGEMENT REJECTED REQUESTS BY THEIR OWN ENGINEERS THAT WANTED LIDAR, EYE SENSING AND OTHER TECHNOLOGY THAT WOULD HAVE IMPROVED SAFETY. TESLA HAS A HISTORY OF CENSORING SAFETY ADVOCATES AND TRYING TO CENSOR THE MEDIA, THUS PREVENTING WHISTLEBLOWERS FROM IMPROVING SAFETY THROUGH PUBLIC AWARENESS. TESLA ALSO HAS A HISTORY OF SCAPEGOATING THEIR OWN CUSTOMERS AND OTHER TESLA DRIVERS; TO DRAW ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE FAULTS OF TESLA. THE "SWISS CHEESE MODEL" INDICATES THAT MOST CRASHES INVOLVE SEVERAL CAUSAL/CONTRIBUTING FACTORS. THERE ALSO NEEDS TO BE MORE EMPHASIS ON THE PSYCHOLOGY OF "HUMAN FACTORS". TESLA HYPE AND TESLA CENSORSHIP OF MEDIA AND SAFETY ADVOCATES ARE SOME OF THE HUMAN FACTORS THAT IS CONTRIBUTING TO TESLA DRIVERS DRIVING MORE RECKLESSLY, UNSAFE AND ARROGANTLY.

HERE IS A REPORT OF A TESLA INVOLVED IN A CRASH. HTTP://BGR.COM/2017/05/23/TESLA-CRASH-PHOTOS-WALK-AWAY/ I AM FILING THIS REPORT AS A CONCERNED CITIZEN BECAUSE I THINK THE OWNER WILL NOT MAKE A COMPLAINT HIMSELF SINCE TESLA OWNERS ARE OFTEN TSLA SHAREHOLDERS AND ARE UNWILLING TO MAKE ANY CRITICISM. TWO THINGS TO NOTE: THE BACK WHEEL FLEW OFF AND NEARLY KILLED A BYSTANDER. THE AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY AND A PASSENGER WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED FILES FROM A FACEBOOK PAGE IN WHICH THE OWNER DESCRIBES THE CRASH.

I DROVE THE CAR INTO A PARKING SPACE AT THE SCHOOL (DESERT CHRISTIAN ELEMENTARY) IN TUCSON ARIZONA ON SEPT 16TH ABOUT 11:05 AM, WHEN THE CAR ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN (UNINTENDED ACCELERATION) AND CRASHED INTO 2 PARKED VEHICLES AND AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND I SUSTAINED A FRACTURE OF MY RIGHT ARM REQUIRING SURGERY. ALSO MY CAR (THE TESLA MODEL S) WAS DAMAGED AND THE TWO OTHER PARKED CARS.

FRONT SEAT-BELTS FIXED TO WALL OF CAR (NOT 3 POSITION FOR DRIVER HEIGHT). FOR ANYONE 5'5'' OR LESS THIS PUTS THE BELT AGAINST THE SIDE OF THROAT, MEANING INSTANT DEATH IN BAD COLLISION. HAVE TO MANUALLY MOVE IT OVER TO SHOULDER BLADE EVERY 5 MINUTES WHILE DRIVING. CAR RECENTLY TOTALED. I WOULD BE DEAD IF HAD NOT MOVED BELT AWAY FROM NECK 3 MINUTES EARLIER. TESLA SAYS THEY TESTED IT IN SHORT PEOPLE...BUT OBVIOUSLY NOT WITH CARS IN MOTION. MULTIPLE CONCERNS ON THE INTERNET. TESLA IGNORED MY COMPLAINTS. THEY HAVE FIXED IT ON THEIR NEW 2016 MODEL WITH GULL-WINGS....3 POSITIONS LIKE MOST CARS. HAVE DONE NOTHING FOR 2015 85S MODEL. NEEDS RECALL! SHORT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HAVE THEIR CAROTID ARTERY RIPPED OUT IN A COLLISION.

HERE IS A TESLA THAT HAS BEEN IN A MAJOR COLLISION. HTTPS://M.IAAI.COM/VEHICLEDETENC.ASPX?AUCTIONID=0&ITEMID=22773780&ROWID=7&PAGESOURCE=VEHICLERESULTS THE RH TIRE IS PARTIALLY PEELED OFF THE RIM. I WOULD BE UNUSUAL FOR A TIRE TO BE PEELED OFF THE RIM AS A RESULT OF A DIRECT FRONTAL IMPACT, ESPECIALLY IF THE WHEEL ITSELF IS NOT DAMAGED. GIVEN THE FACT THAT MANY PHOTOGRAPHS OF CRASHED TESLAS SHOW BROKEN SUSPENSION PARTS AND PEELED OFF TIRES I THINK YOU SHOULD INVESTIGATE THIS CRASH TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE TIRE DAMAGE WAS THE CAUSE OF THE CRASH. I AM FILING THESE REPORTS AS A CONCERNED CITIZEN WHO SHARES THE ROADS WITH THESE VEHICLES. THE DATE OF THE INCIDENT IS JUST AN APPROXIMATION. THE NUMBER OF INJURIES IS JUST A GUESS BASED ON THE SEVERITY OF THE DAMAGE. IF YOU DO NOT WISH ME TO SUBMIT ANY FURTHER REPORTS YOU CAN CONTACT ME VIA EMAIL AND ASK ME TO DESIST.

HERE IS A PHOTOGRAPH OF THE TESLA THAT RECENTLY CRASHED IN GERMANY. HTTP://WWW.DIGITALTRENDS.COM/CARS/TESLA-S-ACCIDENT-SURVIVORS-GERMANY/ TESLA CLAIMS THAT THIS CRASH DEMONSTRATES THE REMARKABLE SAFETY OF THE CAR BECAUSE THE TEENAGE OCCUPANTS ESCAPED WITH THEIR LIVES. CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH SHOWS THAT THE TREAD OF THE RH TIRE HAS BEEN WORN AWAY WHILST THE WHEEL WAS STILL ROTATING AND THAT THIS CAN ONLY HAVE OCCURRED WHILST THE CAR WAS STILL DRIVING ON A BITUMEN HIGHWAY AND NOT AFTER GOING OFF ROAD. I BELIEVE THIS IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF SUSPENSION FAILURES CAUSING CRASHES.

HERE IS A NEWSPAPER REPORT FROM GERMANY. HTTP://WWW.ECHO-ONLINE.DE/LOKALES/BERGSTRASSE/KREIS-BERGSTRASSE/ZWEI-MAENNER-NACH-VERKEHRSUNFALL-IN-AUTO-EINGEKLEMMT_16183699.HTM TWO MEN SERIOUSLY INJURED WHEN MODEL S SWERVED OFF ROAD. THE SNAPPED OFF FRONT SUSPENSION WITH HALF THE WHEEL ATTACHED IS LYING ON THE GROUND 10 METRES IN FRONT OF THE CAR. THE WHEEL HAS BEEN SLICED IN HALF WHILST STILL ROTATING. THE REPORT STATES THAT THE CAR WAS TRAVELLING ON A STRAIGHT SECTION OF THE FREEWAY, BRAKED FOR ROADWORKS AND SUDDENLY VEERED OFF ROAD. PLEASE ADD THIS TO THE LIST OF CRASHES THAT SEEM TO HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY COLLAPSING SUSPENSIONS

HERE IS A TESLA MODEL S IN THE WRECKERS YARD WITH HEAVY FRONT END DAMAGE. HTTP://WWW.COPART.COM/US/LOT/17976436?SEARCHID=1110743839 THE REAR OF THE CAR APPEARS TO BE COMPLETELY UNDAMAGED EXCEPT THAT BOTH REAR WHEELS ARE SPLAYED OUTWARDS AT AN EXTREME ANGLE. THE ALLOY COMPONENTS ARE TOO WEAK FOR THE LOADS IMPOSED BY THIS HIGH POWERED ELECTRIC VEHICLE. IT IS FAR MORE LIKELY THAT THE SKEWED REAR WHEELS CAUSED THE CRASH RATHER THAN BEING DAMAGED DURING THE CRASH. THE REAR WHEELS AND TIRES ARE UNDAMAGED AND HAVE NOT SUFFERED ANY IMPACT. PLEASE NOTE: FICTITIOUS ADDRESS USED TO COMPLY WITH YOUR WEBSITE REQUIREMENTS. I AM UNSURE IF ACTUAL INJURY RESULTED BUT FROM THE SEVERITY OF THE DAMAGE IT ALMOST CERTAINLY DID.
