What 141 owners told NHTSA about the 2018 Tesla Model X P90d

On Saturday, May 21, 2021 I left home to go to the health club about a mile and a half from my house. I noticed the light was very bumpy. It just did not feel right. Came home And noticed did the car head problem with the suspension. Both front wheels seem to be Forli suspended. Please see the photographs of the front of the car and front passenger as well as front driver side wheels and suspension area.

I purchased this vehicle from Tesla on March 31 2021. The vin sticker affixed to vehicle inside driver's door shows a manufacturer date of July 2018. After I got it home and dug deeper into the main control unit, I discovered that the main control unit was from a vehicle built prior to March of 2018. All Tesla vehicle built March of 2018 and on, have an updated main control unit. It has been confirmed by Tesla that the car was manufactured in February of 2018. Tesla refuses to tell me why I purchased a vehicle with a vin sticker that states a manufacture date of July 2018 and that the car has a true manufacture date of February 2018. This is a six month discrepancy in time. The vin sticker is there to protect the consumer. It is there to let the consumer know what they are buying. This vin sticker is false, therefore compromising my ability to make a fair purchase decision. Telsa refuses to put July 2018 equipment into my car, to match the vin sticker information. here is an email from me to Tesla Re: MCU 2 [XXX] From:customersupport@tesla.com To:[XXX] CC: Sent:Tuesday, May 18th 2021, 9:35:33 PM Subject:MCU 2 Hello [XXX], Can you tell me what your local service center is? That way I can escalate your case further to that sales manager and have them look more into what is happening. Thank you!

ON MARCH 18 HAD TO MAKE A PANIC EMERGENCY STOP TO AVOID A COLLISION. I HEARD A POPPING NOISE AND IMMEDIATELY HAD GRINDING AND SCRAPING FROM THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL. SOUND WORSE WITH RIGHT TURNS, LESS WITH LEFT TURNS. SCRAPING CONTINUED WITH DRIVING AND CAR WAS TAKEN TO TESLA SERVICE DUBLIN AS A SAFETY ISSUE, NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. TESLA CONFIRMED THAT TWO BOLTS HOLDING THE LEFT FRONT BRAKE CALIPER BROKEN AND HAD TO REPLACE THEM. TESLA TOOK PHOTOS, BUT I DID NOT RECEIVE THEM. WHEEL NOISE RESOLVED.

ON MARCH 1, 2021, WIFE AND I WAS DRIVING EAST BOUND ON ROUTE 80 HIGHWAY IN OHIO. TWICE THE VEHICLE BRAKED WHILE DRIVING IN CRUISE CONTROL. IT WAS A CLEAR DAY. THERE WERE NO CARS AROUND. NO BRIDGES OR OBSTACLES. AND THE ROAD LINES WHERE CLEAR. THE FIRST BRAKING OCCURRED WHILE WE WERE ON RIGHT LANE ON A TWO-LANE HIGHWAY. THE SECOND BRAKING OCCURRED (AROUND 5:15PM) WHILE WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF 3-LANE HIGHWAY. WE WERE DRIVING APPROXIMATE 65MPH. AT BOTH BRAKING, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING. WHEN I HAPPEN, WE BOTH CONFIRMED THERE WAS NO CARS OR OBSTACLES AROUND US. WE CONTACTED TESLA, WHO AFTER REVIEWING THEIR LOGS SAYS IT WAS WORKING IN "NORMAL". THAT THE VEHICLE SAW SOMETHING AND BRAKED. EVEN THOUGH BOTH MYSELF AND WIFE CAN CONFIRM THERE WAS NOTHING AROUND US, PARTICULARLY SINCE COVID HAS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED ANY TRAFFIC. THERE HAS BEEN A HISTORY OF ISSUES. ON OTHER OCCASION, ONE OF MY SIDE DOORS INDICATED THERE WAS SOMETHING THERE, EVEN THOUGH I WAS THE ONLY VEHICLE IN COMPLETELY EMPTY PARKING LOT. ONLY AFTER MANY COMPLAINTS AN ATTEMPTS DID THEY FINALLY REPLACE THE SENSOR. IT SEEMS THAT THEY ARE REPEATING THEIR DENIAL OF CLAIMS BY TWO EYE-WITNESSES OF THE ISSUES.

ALL SCREENS IN THE CAR SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING AND THERE IS NO ACCESS TO YOUR SPEED, BLINKERS, CONTROL OF LIGHTS, CONTROL OF CAR SAFETY FEATURES, WIPERS, ETC. TESLA WAS NOTIFIED MULTIPLE TIMES AND EACH TIME THEY TRIED TO CORRECT THE ISSUE, IT WAS NOT RESOLVED. IT HAS BEEN A YEAR SINCE THE ISSUE STARTED AND HAS HAPPENED OVER A DOZEN TIMES, RESULTING IN UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. TESLA KEEPS STATING THEY "REMOTELY DIAGNOSE" THE PROBLEM AND TOLD ME TO KEEP AN EYE ON IT AND SEE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN, ALTHOUGH THEY TOLD ME LESS THAN 2 WEEKS PRIOR TO CALL IMMEDIATELY IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THEY HAVE REFUSED TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND IT HAS BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE WITH DRIVING THE VEHICLE.

THE CENTRAL DISPLAY UNIT/MEDIA UNIT (MCU) HAD MORE AND MORE FREQUENT REBOOTS, FREEZES, BLANK SCREENS.

IT GOES BLACK VERY OFTEN, IT BECOMES SLOW MANY TIMES, RESTART TAKES A LONG TIME, SOMETIMES BLUETOOTH STOP WORKING FOR ALL DEVICES, NO SOUNDS CHIMES, NO AUDIO SOMETIMES, THE BLANK SCREEN STAYS FOR LONG TIME SOMETIMES DURING THE DRIVE. THIS IS BIG SAFETY CONCERN. I WENT TO SERVICE FEW TIMES AND MOST RECENTLY TODAY AND TESLA SERVICE DENIED THE SERVICE OR FIX SITING EVERYTHING WORKS. THEY ASKED ME TO RESTART THE SCREEN.

I'VE BEEN INFORMED BY THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER, THAT THE TESLA MODEL X 7 SEAT VEHICLE MUST MAKE A LOUD 15 SECOND LONG ALERT WHEN SHIFTING INTO DRIVE, WHEN IN THE EVENT THAT THE VEHICLES FOLD FLAT SEATS ARE FOLDED FLAT. THIS SAME ALERT IS NOT PRESENT ON TESLA MODEL X 5 SEAT VEHICLE MODELS, AND I WOULD LIKE TO INFORM NHTSA THAT TESLA MAYBE VIOLATING REGULATIONS IN THEIR PRODUCED 5 SEAT MODELS, OR MAKING UP REGULATIONS TO IGNORE SOFTWARE BUGS THAT HINDER THE OPERATION OF THEIR VEHICLES AND DISTRACTING THE DRIVER FOR 15 SECONDS WHEN USING THE VEHICLE DAILY.

HELLO, I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BEST TO SEND MY LATEST SERVICE NOTE ABOUT MY CAR. TESLA CONTINUES TO AVOID FIXING OR ADDRESSING THE PROBLEM. WE ARE NOT SURE WHERE ELSE TO TURN AND SEE SO MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ONLINE. I FINALLY DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO REACH OUT TO YOU. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ANY ASSISTANCE OR GUIDANCE YOU CAN PROVIDE. ' HI THERE ARE NO TIME STAMPS, AS IT HAS FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS, THE SCREEN IS PERPETUALLY SLOW. I ASSUME IT IS IN THE RECORDS, WE HAVE REACHED OUT TO SERVICE MANY TIMES. WE'VE HAD THE SCREEN REPLACED, WE'VE CLEARED OUT THE MEMORY, GONE THROUGH REBOOTS AND WE STILL HAVE ISSUES. WE CAN RARELY GET TO OUR REVERSE CAMERA IN A TIMELY MANNER, AND ALL FEATURES ACCESSIBLE VIA THE TOUCHSCREEN ARE UNUSABLE. OUR VEHICLE IS NO LONGER SAFE TO DRIVE. WE'VE RECENTLY GONE ONLINE AND RECOGNIZE THAT WE ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS OTHER VEHICLES. WE'VE GONE FROM THE BIGGEST TESLA FAN AND TURNED OUT 50+ PEOPLE TO THE VEHICLE, TO HAVE LOST FAITH IN THE BRAND. ESPECIALLY WITH THE SAFETY ISSUES THIS IS CAUSING US. WE HAVE GONE THROUGH MONTHS OR TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPAIRS AND IT IS STILL NOT RESOLVED. WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST FOR OUR PATH FORWARD? HOW DO WE GET THIS IN FRONT OF TESLA'S LEADERSHIP TEAM?' LEE SCHOR

TIRES ARE SEPARATING INTERNALLY AFTER 27K MILES. CONTINENTAL TIRES. THIS TIRE SHOULD BE GOOD FOR 45K MILES. IT HAS NO OTHER PROBLEMS. TESLA SAYS THEY HAVE LOTS OF PROBLEMS WITH THOSE TIRES. WHEN THE TIRE HAS PROBLEMS IT FAULTS ALL THE SAFETY ISSUES OF CAR AND COMPUTER. BIG PROBLEM. ONLY ANSWER IS TO REPLACE ALL OF TIRES AND SEE WHAT WORKS.

DRIVER DISTRACTION ISSUE WHEN I BOUGHT THE TESLA MODEL X, BASIC VOICE COMMANDS WERE AVAILABLE -- E.G., TO CALL USING A SMARTPHONE, LINKED TO THE CAR VIA BLUETOOTH. THE OPERATION, AS NEW, WAS STRAIGHTFORWARD, AND MATCHED THE THEN-CURRENT MANUAL, AVAILABLE IN 2018. AS IS KNOWN, TESLA UPDATES ITS CAR SOFTWARE, &, IN FACT, MAKES IT MANDATORY THAT THE CAR'S SW BE UPDATED, OR RISK VOIDING THE WARRANTY. NORMALLY, THE NEW SW UPDATES IMPROVE THE OPERATION OF THE CAR. HOWEVER, STARTING IN DECEMBER 2019, THE SW UPDATES, & EACH TESLA 'OWNERS MANUAL' THAT CORRESPONDS, FELL OUT OF SYNC. THE MANUAL WOULD DESCRIBE FUNCTIONALITY, AND THE ACTUAL SOFTWARE, SIMPLY DID NOT HAVE THE FUNCTIONALITY. I'VE READ EACH OF THE UPDATED "MODEL X OWNERS MANUAL NORTH AMERICA", (JANUARY 2020 & OCTOBER 2020), DOWNLOADED FROM THE TESLA WEBSITE. IN EACH CASE, THE CAR FAILS TO CONFORM TO THE OPERATIONAL DETAILS EXPLAINED AT, E.G., THE OCTOBER 2020 (2020.44) MANUAL, PAGE 53. ON THAT PAGE, TESLA EXPLAINS, TWICE, THAT A WAY TO ACTIVATE A VOICE COMMAND, IS TO 1. PRESS THE VOICE BUTTON; 2. STATE THE VOICE COMMAND, E.G., "CALL JOHN DOE" 3. PRESS THE VOICE COMMAND. TWICE, ON THE SAME PAGE 53, TESLA WRONGLY INSTRUCTS THE DRIVER TO 'TAP THE VOICE BUTTON AGAIN' OR 'PRESS AGAIN'. IN HUNDREDS ATTEMPTS TO MAKE THE MODEL X TO RESPOND TO 'BOOKEND' PRESSES OF THE VOICE BUTTON, IT HAS FAILED TO OPERATE IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED IN THE MANUAL, SINCE DECEMBER 2019. HOWEVER, THE CAR DOES RESPOND TO THE FOLLOWING SEQUENCE OF INPUTS, WHICH THE MANUAL ALSO DESCRIBES: 1. PRESS THE VOICE BUTTON; 2. STATE THE VOICE COMMAND, E.G., "CALL JOHN DOE" 3. WAIT, UP TO 5 SECONDS ...CONTINUED IN ATTACHEMENT

TESLA MODEL X DIES TWO TIMES. 1) AT APX 1K MILES (WITHIN 3 MONTHS OF NEW PURCHASE OF NEW VEHICLE, 1ST OWNER), IT DIED ON FREEWAY WITH NO POWER AND STOPPED. DUE TO SPACING FROM THE REAR CARD, NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED AND HENCE NO FATALITY. TESLA SERVICE CENTER FOUND NOTHING WITH THIS ISSUE. NO RESOLUTION ON DIAGNOSIS AND OR DID NOT CARE SAFETY OF THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS. 2) AT 9K MILES IDENTICAL ISSUE BUT WITH AN ADDITIONAL ISSUE OF MODEL X GOING IN FORWARD DIRECTIONS WHEN IT SHOWED REVERS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. EVERYTHING IN CAR WAS FROZEN ONLY OPTION WAS FORWARD DIRECTION AT LOW SPEED BUT WITH REVERSE MODE SIGN!! I HAD NOT OTHER CONTROL OVER THE TESLA MODEL X. I HAVE TAKEN VIDEO AT THIS TIME FOR AN EVIDENCE. TESLA STATES THAT THEY DID NOT FIND ANY ISSUE AND DOWN LOADED DISPLAY DRIVER AGAIN!! I FIND IT AN EXCUSE AND TESLA DOES NOT UNDERSTAND SERIOUSNESS IN SAFETY ISSUE. ME AND FAMILY IS AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR AFTER TWO INCIDENTS.

FOR 2-3 WEEKS, THE VEHICLE'S RIDE HAS SHUDDERED AND WOBBLED, FROM 1-70 MPH. THE WOBBLE AFFECT IS PARTICULARLY NOTICEABLE WHEN MAKING TURNS, FROM 5+ DEGREES. THE VEHICLE FEELS AS THOUGH A TIRE HAS BEEN BLOWN, BUT THE TIRE SENSORS DO NOT INDICATE ANY TIRE PRESSURE ISSUES. WE HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE MANUFACTURER'S SERVICE CENTER, THINKING INITIALLY THAT THE PROBLEM WAS DRIVETRAIN RELATED. HOWEVER, THE SERVICE CENTER HAS NOTIFIED US THAT THE PROBLEM LIES WITH BOTH REAR TIRES HAVING ISSUES, BOTH INTERNAL SEPARATION AND INTERNAL BUBBLES. THE SERVICE CENTER HAS NOTIFIED US THAT WE MUST PAY FOR REPLACEMENT OF THESE TIRES, WHICH ARE THE VEHICLE'S ORIGINAL TIRES WITH APROX. 25,000 MILES. ALL RESEARCH WE CAN FIND ON INTERNAL SEPARATION AND INTERNAL BUBBLES INDICATES A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. WE ARE GRATEFUL THE ISSUE WAS DISCOVERED BEFORE AN ACCIDENT OCCURED, BUT WONDER WHY THE CONSUMER IS ASKED TO PAY FOR WHAT APPEARS BY ALL OF OUR RESEARCH TO BE A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. SHOULDN'T THE VEHICLE'S MANUFACTURER ALSO BE AWARE OF THIS? AND IF SO, WHY WOULD THEY ASK THE PURCHASER OF THE VEHICLE TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF A DEFECTIVE PART, WHETHER IT BE THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER'S OR ORIGINAL COMPONENTS PROVIDED BY A 3RD PARTY, SUCH AS THE TIRES? WE HAVE NOT YET FINALIZED A RESOLUTION, BUT WANTED TO FILE THIS IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE THERE IS A RECORD OF SUCH TIRE DEFECTS IN CASE IT IS A COMMON DEFECT FOR SAID TIRE.

AUTOPILOT SYSTEM WOULD NOT WORK FROM THE MOMENT IT LEFT THE LOT BRAND NEW. THE WARNINGS ON THE FORWARD CLUSTER DISPLAY LOWER CENTER STARTED OUT DISPLAYING "SURROUND VEHICLE DISPLAY LIMITED" THEN CHANGED TO DISPLAYING "AUTOPILOT FEATURES LIMITED". NEVER HAD THE CALIBRATION IN PROGRESS DISPLAYED WHILE DRIVING OFF THE LOT. IT WAS TAKEN TO THE TESLA SERVICE CENTER IN VIENNA, VA TO ADDRESS DUE BILL ITEMS. AFTER 2 WEEKS AT THE TESLA SERVICE CENTER IT WAS DETERMINED THAT A WIRE IN THE HARNESS LEADING TO THE RIGHT B PILLAR WAS DAMAGED. A WIRE WAS ADDED OUTSIDE OF THE HARNESS TO REPAIR IT. REQUEST TO HAVE THE HARNESS REPLACED WERE DENIED AND NO ASSURANCES IN WRITING FROM TESLA THAT THE REST OF THE HARNESS WAS FREE OF ANY DAMAGE. I NEVER HAD A "CALIBRATION IN PROGRESS" RETURNING THE VEHICLE HOME. IS THE AUTOPILOT FUNCTION CALIBRATED? WE HAVE THE FULL SELF DRIVING PACKAGE.
