2025 Tesla Model X problems

“The Full-Self Drive of my Tesla failed to follow the programmed navigation directions I set to take me home in one direction, but instead the vehicle took a completely different path on its own. When the vehicle was programmed to turn right towards my home, the car quickly jerked back into traffic and I was forced to take control before accidentally hitting another vehicle The vehicle continued to go into another direction and did the same thing several times later. I put my home address in the navigation to go home, but as soon as my Tesla was about to turn right into my subdivision it quickly pulled and jerked me left back into traffic and took me completely into another direction several days again. I let the car complete its misdirection and the car took me around the block into a parking lot and bought me back to my original planned destination to my home”

“The contact owns a 2025 Tesla Model X. The contact stated that after the latest update was pushed out, the speed regulation on the vehicle failed to function as intended. The contact stated that the speed regulation was set to "Standard Mode" and the vehicle accelerated to 70 MPH in a 55 MPH Zone. The contact stated that was not the mode selected. In addition, when the contact set the speed regulator to "Crawl Mode," the vehicle drove 10-15 MPH below the speed limit. No warning light was illuminated. The contact was unable to control the speed of the vehicle. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.”

“Left indicator button is randomly unresponsive, sometime it doesn’t work for up to a minute. This happened to me with my previous model x (bought back by tesla in a lemon case for the same issue), happened to me also in a loaner car they gave me while trying to fix this issue and now again in a recently purchased model x. In both cases Tesla replaced the steering yoke and that didn’t solved the issue This is a serious safety issue that left me frustrated and with no solution from Tesla. Every time i got a different response from tesla like: - its a software issue - its a design flaw - I’m not pressing the button correctly - I’m resting my finger on the button and that makes the button unresponsive - we couldn’t replicate the issue I have a video of the left indicator not working for a whole minute while the right one is working”

“I am writing to report and formally document a very serious and distressing safety incident involving my Tesla Model X that occurred for a second time, on [XXX]. While driving routinely into the parking garage at my workplace, my vehicle suddenly and violently stopped without warning. There were no obstacles, vehicles, or pedestrians in front of me. The abrupt stop caused my body and head to jolt forward with force, resulting in whiplash. I am still feeling dizzy, dazed, and disoriented, and I believe I may need to consult a neurologist as I have a headache from the whiplash. This is not the first time this has occurred. A similar but less severe incident happened previously while I was driving on [XXX] . At that time, I dismissed it as a possible glitch, but after this most recent and violent episode, I am deeply alarmed. I am extremely concerned about the safety of this vehicle. What if this sudden stop had occurred on the freeway, or while my two children were in the car? The potential consequences could have been catastrophic.”

“I own a Tesla Model X 6-seater. The second-row seatbelt repeatedly becomes twisted and fails to retract or lay flat after only a few days of normal use. I have brought the vehicle to the Tesla Service Center in Austin, TX (2323 Ridgepoint Dr) multiple times — five separate repair visits so far — for the same issue. Each time, the technicians temporarily correct the twist or adjust the belt path, but the issue returns within days. I have attached screenshots of all five repair records, including Tesla’s technician notes describing the repeated attempts to resolve the problem. The problem appears to be caused by misalignment of the seatbelt retractor or seat design, not by user misuse. When the belt twists, it cannot retract properly or lay flat across the passenger, which may reduce its effectiveness during a collision. Tesla Service has not offered a permanent fix or design correction, and the defect continues to recur. This appears to be a systemic issue in the second-row seatbelt system of the Model X six-seat configuration. Because the defect involves a federally required safety restraint that may not function as intended, I am reporting this as a potential…”

“Sept 20, 2025. 2025 Model X door alarmed for being open when it was actually closed. Door would only open intermittently. Your in car and cannot escape through drivers door. It was locked shut and thought it was open. Parked car requested Tesla service. Mobile unit came out replaced electric opener. Door continued to lock driver in and out of car randomly for the month of October 2025. We parked car and scheduled appointments with Tesla multiple times. They were not concerned this was a safety issue. They reschedule our appointments multiple times. At the end of October after several service appointments and multiple parts replaced the door started working. Their final comments we "THEY WERENT ABLE TO VERIFY THERE WAS AN ISSUE."”
