I've had Enhanced autopilot since June 24 2022. Since that time I've accumulated approximately 15,000 miles, with approximately 80% being auto pilot miles. On May 14th my car was upgraded to "Full Self Driving (Supervised)" without my consent. I was given 30 days of FSD trial, with no way to opt out. I was presented with a software upgrade that looked like a normal upgrade, however after the upgrade I was told I had FSD. I immediately disabled FSD, only enabling autopilot (Highway only), and attempted a drive from Fairfield, CA to Concord CA along [XXX]. During the drive, the car was not able to maintain lane control, and would suddenly apply hard braking randomly. On two occasions the car accelerated towards stopped traffic, and I had to disengage autopilot. I ended up manually driving the car as it was unsafe to use to assistive systems. I contacted Tesla, who said they where unable to remove the FSD trial, and I was stuck with the upgrade, even though it made the car unsafe to drive.

I just got T-Boned in my 2022 Model Y performance. I got out of the vehicle which wasn't in terrible condition, in fact the left side of the vehicle was still perfect and the doors worked fine. I had my dog with me and everyone was okay, but I opened my door and the back passenger door to grab a jacket and check on my dog. I shut the doors to make sure he didn't run out and was a bit out of it because of the accident impact so I took a moment to compose myself.. All of the car's lights flickered and then the electric cut off leaving the doors completely locked and inoperable even though they had just been used moments before and were not damaged in the accident. I had to climb in through a shattered glass window to get my dog as all the doors wouldn't open from the outside and I was unable to access the glove box, nor pry it open because the electricity was out and the impact caused that door to make the side panel to unlock the glove box manually accessible. If the car DID catch fire or an occupant were bleeding out: Anyone inside, unconscious, would be unable to use the manually release and would be burned alive while people pull on doors that won't open that were undamaged in the accident and working 60 seconds before. From what I have read the only solution would be to jump the car using the 12V battery in the Frunk of which the Tow company and Emergency Responders were not familiar with.

The adaptive cruise control doesn’t function correctly. I was on the freeway, which was 70 MPH, and all of a sudden the vehicle breaker abruptly while in autopilot. I saw that it registered the max speed as 40 MPH. It almost caused a collision.

My Tesla model Y performance 2022 was purchased on September 26, 2022. I found that the left rear wheel was leaking in July 2023. After other tire repair shops failed to find the cause of the leak, I went to the Alhambra Tesla service center for further inspection. They found that my wheels rims had cracks that caused the tire to leak very slowly. These cracks are invisible to the naked eye (I still have this wheel rim at home). During my negotiation with this Tesla service center, they told me that it was my use that caused the wheels rims to crack, and they would not be responsible for the wheels rims. I disagreed with their decision and bought a new WHEEL RIM at my own expense. I use this car for work. I have never driven this car for strenuous exercise or to steep mountains. This is my vehicle usage scenario. In February 2024, the same situation occurred on my right rear wheel. My wheel began to leak slowly and I couldn't find the reason. After multiple inspections, Tesla service center found that there was a very small crack in the right rear wheel rim. The conclusion of TESLA SERVICE CENTER is still that my use caused the crack of the wheel rims. TESLA MODEL Y PERFORMANCE is a high-performance sports car. The wheels rims are specially made 22 inches and are produced by the original factory. There have been many cases of wheels rims cracking in 18 months. I hope to attract your attention and conduct product quality inspections, which is very important for safety.

We bought a 2022 Tesla Y performance in August 2023. Love the car but customer service in the service center is and has been beyond horrible and frustrating. We had a back seat (driver side) panel that was not snapped in properly. In November 2023 we took it to a service center so they could fix it. They said they needed to order the part and they would send someone to come to our house to fix it. On 2 different occasions someone came to our house to fix it. The first service tech replaced the bottom piece but it wasn’t snapping in securely so he said they need to order the middle piece. The 2nd service tech came to the house and said they did not send him with the correct part and he will schedule an appt for us to come to the service center. We scheduled an appt to go to ant other service center (an hour away) and they had our car for a couple hours and gave us a loaner. When my husband went to pick it up they did not fix the panel and it was not snapped in correctly. We have a picture of it. They said they would have to order the part and schedule us to come back to fix it. We went back and they said it would be 2 hours and my husband was already waiting an hour. They did not fix it and we left. Very rude customer service.
