“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.”
NHTSA complaint #11738019, filed 2026-05“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.”
NHTSA complaint #11695892, filed 2025-10“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. …”
NHTSA complaint #11734677, filed 2026-04“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. …”
NHTSA complaint #11745182, filed 2026-06“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. …”
