2020 Tesla Model Y Suspension Problems

“This is a complaint about systemic failures in Tesla suspension components that affect all years and models of teslas on the roads.

Worried we hit something we circled back around back around but there was nothing. Car began making a loud noise everyone we turned the wheel.
