As an electric vehicle, it would seem only right that the Tesla Model X would be well-equipped with the latest technologies. However, the Model X is a downright danger because of the malfunctioning electronics.
One NHTSA review states, “While driving the electronic systems that monitor the brakes as well as traction control malfunction. It happened multiple times. At one point, the steering wheel was not operable. The brakes became inoperable. I had it towed to the Tesla service center where they said they corrected it. However, upon getting the car back it happened again. Car is very unsafe to drive when all systems shut down.”
It wasn’t that long ago that Tesla touchscreens were defective, so everyone is still waiting for the shoe to drop on the latest systems. Still, there are already recalls out on this vehicle that prove how much of a lemon it is. For example, NHTSA Campaign Number 22V045000 affects more than 800k vehicles and describes how the seat belt chime doesn’t work. Considering this is a basic system, it’s clear Tesla can’t even get the fundamentals down. Plus, NHTSA Campaign Number 22V050000 says that other vehicles are being recalled because the valve located in the heat pump gets stuck open. When this happens, refrigerant gets trapped in the evaporator and the windshield won’t defrost. The fact that owners can’t see out the windshield is certainly “beyond ludicrous.”
The newest lineup of Tesla models is praised for having the best safety features included. However, when these systems don’t work, everyone is in danger.
This is what becomes clear when reading this NHTSA complaint. “While driving my 2022 Model X in full self driving beta the vehicle suddenly took a sharp right into another vehicle causing damage to both no one was severely injured. At the time of the incident I was traveling at 40mph which was the designated speed for that area. I had a passenger in the vehicle that can verify the incident.”
Again, there are numerous safety recalls on the Model X, several dealing with the safety systems. NHTSA Campaign Number 22V063000 says that nearly 600k vehicles have a defect stopping the Pedestrian Warning System (PWS) sounds from sending out alarms to the driver. Additionally, NHTSA Campaign Number 22V037000 says that the “rolling stop” functionality in the Full Self-Driving system doesn’t work, so vehicles are traveling right through stop signs with no warning. With everything that’s been shown, it would be “beyond ludicrous” for anyone to think they are safe inside the Model X or anywhere near it.
Tesla is well aware of lemon law issues and acknowledges owners’ rights in a document on their website. It describes how to make a claim. But instead of tackling the system on your own, you can reach out to Lemberg Law and our lemon law team will help you negotiate a settlement.
We have helped many car owners get replacement vehicles and have negotiated buy-back agreements or cash settlements from manufacturers. Call our Helpline and we will evaluate your case. The law requires that Tesla pays legal costs for lemon law cases, so you’ve got nothing to lose.

Description | I entered into my vehicle and was notified climate system was having issues and needed service. The system was working fine earlier in the day but when I left work it never got warm. On my way home, driving became difficult when simple features like defrosting the windshield did not work. I called tesla and the remedy was unsatisfactory no loaner vehicle nothing they also didn't have appointments till 20 days later. It's february this is unacceptable and unsafe. Heating in the winter in a vehicle is a necessity and needs to be addressed in a timely matter. I am hoping this information can lead to having tesla change and improve a system that failed 6 months and 9k miles after I took delivery of my car. |

Description | This happened with my new tesla model x plaid with installed self drive software. The autopilot or self drive mode was not enabled when the incident happened. Turning into a parking spot at a target superstore, (next to a damaged at the rear end car, parked to the left of the spot I was pulling into), the car went out of control with unintended acceleration as if the car's emergency evasion system got activated unintentionally. It went over the curb and made a turn on it's own on the grassed divider and came to a stop on it's own, while I was trying to apply breaks all along. It caused damage to other cars but fortunately no people were harmed. This incident happened end of july of 2022 and I have since repeatedly tried to get answers from tesla. There have been multiple other incidents of unintended acceleration reported by other drivers of tesla with two incidents resulting in loss of lives. My car finally got repaired and has been released to me saying they have tested and found it safe to drive although I was told with regards to my incident "the engineering case is still open with no resolution at this point". I had requested a master technician to check my car but that has not been arranged yet. I have repeatedly contacted the local tesla service center manager who has not been able to get an answer from her team with regards to the cause of the problem but at the same time was told that the current issues do not warrant repurchase of the car like I had requested. |

Description | Horn is not in center of yolk steering wheel. Since the horn button is offset from center, it is always in a different location. This is a very serious safety hazard when faced with an emergency situation. There have been quite a few times when I have been unable to quickly locate the horn button. This can be summed up in two words - âextremely dangerousâ. |

Description | 2022 model x plaid is exhibiting â phantom brakingâ while in autopilot mode using navigation. Vehicle abruptly brakes while driving on highway as navigation appears to become confused and thinks it is on a side street. Vehicle goes from high speeds of 70-80 mph, down to 30-40 mph. If was being followed closely, car behind tesla would have collided with rear of vehicle. This has occurred 10+ times since purchased vehicle in february. Vehicle has just under 6000 mi. As of today. I have times/dates to include a video of one incident. I have brought it to tesla for service on 2 separate occasions, to no avail. They say it needs the latest upgrade, which has not resolved issue. |

Description | This is regarding the 2022 tesla model x steering wheel/yoke the button for the left and right turning signal occasionally does not work. When I tried pressing down the bottom, it is stuck and does not produce the haptic vibration it at least malfunctions once every 2-3 days. This is especially dangerous when I am merging onto the freeway, when it suddenly stops working. Tesla first address the issue by replacing the yoke/steering wheel when I brought the car into service on 9/12/2022. However, shortly after leaving the service center, the issue shows up again. I then had to submit a new service request, which was supposed to get fix/replace on 10/14/2022. However, the service center said the part is not available yet, so pushed back the appointment date to 11/07/2022 but they cannot guarantee that the part will be available on that date as well. At this point, I am driving a car that post safety risk and put others at risk, as I am not able to use the turning signal 100%. There was a few times I almost got into accidents. I mention this to tesla service support, but they brush it off and simply said part is not available there is no urgency to fix it. I have at least 3 videos of showing the turning signal not working while I am driving. During those times, luckily I had a passenger with me that can help record. Can provide those videos if requested. Thank you |

Description | Trying to secure a backless child safety booster seat which has latch tether devices. The tesla model x 2022 3rd row does not have the latch tether bars. I believe the brand of seat is gofit chicco. My 7 year old granddaughter was only restrained with the shoulder lap belt. During a forced rapid deceleration emergency stop she was choked by the seatbelt when the booster seat slid off the seat during rapid deceleration. She was not injured other than a red mark, sorry no photos, and was significantly traumatized from the incident. This booster seat has a clear warning stating the latch system is required and does not have a built in seatbelt channel since it's backless. The 2nd row seats were in use with two other child safety seats using the latch system which provided ample protection. |

Description | In all late 2021 and 2022 model s and x cars from tesla, the manufacturer removed the left and right stalks for a) directional signals b) wiper controls c) forward/reverse/park controls and also made it nearly impossible to use the horn, with only a tiny button to sound the horn. The driver is forced to remove their eyes from the road to a) turn on left or right directional signals b) choose forward or reverse c) turn on window washers d) turn on wipers when they fail to turn on automatically and e) press the horn. At no time should a driver have to remove their eyes from the road to do these functions. Traditionally, any driver could use a left or right hand without removing eyes from the road and use any such control. This is not possible. |

Description | There is an issue with the gps in that the location is not accurate, sometimes it is off by 10-20 feet, enough to put it on a different road, sometimes it's off by miles. This is very dangerous as when using autopilot, it uses map data to set the cruising speed, and if the gps is reporting the car is on a different road, the speed can change to being faster or slower than the actual road the car is on. |

Description | The 2021-2022 model x âyokeâ steering wheel is poorly conceived and a safety hazard. 1) horn location is tiny, and moves as wheel turns, impossible to quickly activate horn in emergency situations 2) high beam lights are on a tiny button which also moves and cannot be activated when wheel turns or in an emergency situation, or even when choosing to cross an intersection during a yellow light because a car behind you is tailgating. 3) wheel shape: when used at lower speeds in autopilot beta mode, the electronics literally rip the wheel out of your hands when turning right on residential streets. It is impossible to maintain hands on the wheel without risk of personal injury during some autopilot beta turns. Safety of the vehicle would be returned if the prior 2017-2020 round wheel with turn signal, wiper control, and gear selector stalks returned. The inability for the driver to control following distance in the adas (cruise control) systems without dropping 3 levels down into on screen menus is also unsafe. |

Description | Phantom braking of the tesla optical-only (no radar or lidar) adaptive cruise control. Northbound on hwy 101 around gonzales ca there is a truck stop on the west side of the highway. Proper signage and lane lines enable 101 traffic to maintain 65 mph. The insufficient optical-only system hit the brakes through the intersection and caused traffic behind me to brake suddenly as if there were an obstruction. I scheduled service but this is a system that should be tested much more rigorously before delivery. The sudden braking that the system employed caused a situation where driver input was required to avoid a collision. This is inherently dangerous and is avoidable by peers' acc systems. Has not been reproduced to my knowledge. No inspection of the system. Yes, there is an audible alarm that the system is braking. Too little, too late. One final thought: the acc systems of vehicles in this class use radar and/or lidar to enable sampling of the entire electromagnetic spectrum that humans can monitor cost-effectively. For some reason tesla made the insane decison to go optical-only, robbing their system of at least 10 times the data. The detriment in available data that an optical-only system has to overcome is too great to solve with nifty software. Tesla's decision endangers drivers of their cars and, most importantly, others on the road. |

Description | 1) low-speed turning is very difficult. Makes hitting pedestrians/curbs/edifices much more likely, as well as just holding up traffic and frustrating other drivers. 2) turn signals require looking down at the steering yoke unless you're a real ninja. Even if you get the hang of them without looking down, it's too easy to make a mistake. Also I've noticed that when I'm trying to use the left signal, the terrible haptic faceplate will sometimes activate the right turn signal. When this happens in traffic at speed on the highway it can cause accidents. 3) horn is a haptic region that you have to look for to activate. I think this is being addressed but it's not sufficient to recall just to replace the current version with one with a normal horn in the middle. The entire thing needs to be replaced with a wheel and turn signal stalk. Elon musk might be a genius but he has no business running an ongoing car company. |

Description | Travelling at highway speed with cruise control on, the brakes came on hard as if there was an upcoming collision, slowing the car by 25-30 mph. But there was no car or obstacle ahead of mine. I was able to immediately accelerate back to speed without further incident. And fortunately, the cars behind me were able to slow down without hitting me. This is the third (3rd) time this has happened. The previous was less than two weeks ago on city streets without cruise control and I don't remember the first which happened shortly after getting the car in march 2022. I noticed that others have had a similar experience, which led me to submit this report. |

Description | New tesla model s/x gear shifter(shift on screen) is unintuitive and dangerous. In a traditional car, or even model 3/y. Gear shift is intuitive, can be confirmed by visual, muscle memory, sometimes audible as well. In the new tesla model x/s, the shift happens on the side of the center screen. A thin but very long slide , going up from middle point vertically all the way goes to drive, going down to reverse. The problem is, sitting in driver's position with your elbow sweeping up and down , especially such a long sweep perfectly needs extra attention. And it needs to be vertical, which is hard to do since the natural elbow motion make your hand movement curved. But in order to get engaged with gear successfully it needs to be perfectly straight. The worst part is, there is no redundancy to confirm your gear engagement except visual â by confirming a tiny text showing gear , on a different screen(cluster) , sometimes laggy response . While the traditional gear shift that people used to can be done by muscle memory , then confirmed by touch/feel, like crisp stalk click or shifter lever steady stuck in new gear , and audibles. You can always confirm by visual as well but it's not always the case. This makes back and forth maneuvers in a time critical situation ( like parking parallels in a busy street) more stressful and much more room for fail to engage the gear you want. I had an minor incident due to fail to shift to drive , stuck at reverse then hit a parked vehicle in a parking lot at a low speed. Had I been in a traditional car, this kind of mis-shift would never happen, I had been driving for over a decade and never had a collision before, this is the first time. Not to mention such a âstupid mistke' this design is unsafe for seasoned drivers, and needs to be improved. |

Description | Malfunctioned components and systems: 1) outdated feed from the backup camera. No signal from the side cameras. Reproduced multiple times. 2) false input from physical controls. Reproduced multiple times for the left wheel button on the yoke (scroll up and press) and the honk button on the yoke. 3) false signal from proximity sensors. 4) false signal from open door sensors. 5) spontaneous activation of autonomous parking (when disabled in the settings). 6) spontaneous activation of the service mode. The vehicle shows: "do not drive. Improper use may cause damage or injury." 7) brake fault. Reproduced multiple times. 8) parking brake fault. Reproduced multiple times. 9) steering assist fault. 10) high-voltage system fault. 11) spontaneous computer restart. Available for inspection before 5/5/2022. Safety concerns: 1) the outdated feed from the backup camera almost led to an accident on 03/26/2022 at ~3:09 pm when another vehicle was shown at a distance, but it was actually right behind the vehicle. 2) false signal from proximity sensors on 04/17/2022 at 10:35 pm likely caused a false accident avoidance maneuver toward leaving the drivable surface at a high speed with no vehicles in proximity (video is available by request). 3) spontaneously increased volume on 04/17/2022 at 12:00 pm distracted the driver and could damage the ears. It couldn't be counteracted by the driver's input due to the fast false input and the persistence of the problem (the volume increased and the playback resumed). 4) false input from physical controls may potentially lead to an uncontrollable vehicle. 5) spontaneous activation of autonomous parking may potentially lead to an uncontrollable vehicle. The problem was reported to tesla on 3/26/2022 (two days after the delivery of the vehicle). The vehicle was inspected and the problem was confirmed by tesla service on 4/5/2022. They recommended installing a software update that didn't resolve any of the reported issues. Tesla has issued a safety recall with nhtsa recall no. 22v-296 and m |

Description | Vehicle repeatedly applied the brakes while on cruise control. This sometimes seemed to be a response to other vehicles approaching in the oncoming traffic lane, but sometimes seemed totally unexpected.
