2022 Tesla Model Y forward collision avoidance problems

“Tesla manual States that to shift from drive to reverse all you have to do is press the stop all the way up. However while driving if you had used autopilot which is the adas system and disengaged it without hitting the brakes then the car will refuse to go into reverse contradiction to the user manual. I have almost been in numerous low-speed crashes because I pressed the stock up to go into reverse and thinking that the car will go into reverse I'm pressing the throttle again only for the car to work forward followed by a delayed sound indicating that the car didn't go into reverse. The sound he's almost always delayed.”

“On XXX, I was involved in a collision in [XXX], while manually driving my 2022 Tesla Model Y (VIN: [XXX]). Neither Full Self-Driving (FSD) nor Autopilot was engaged. I was making a right turn at a red traffic signal while another vehicle was making a U-turn. My Tesla collided with the passenger-side door of the other vehicle. Before the collision, I did not receive any audible or visual Forward Collision Warning (FCW). I also did not observe the Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system activating or attempting to slow the vehicle before impact. My approximate speed at the time of the collision is unknown. No injuries occurred. I am concerned that the vehicle's Forward Collision Warning and Automatic Emergency Braking systems did not respond to the collision risk. I understand these systems have operating limitations, particularly during turning maneuvers, but I would like this incident documented as a potential vehicle safety concern. I request that NHTSA review this incident to determine whether further investigation is warranted, including whether the vehicle detected the collision risk and whether the safety systems were functioning as designed.”

“The suspected malfunction involved Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (Supervised) and related automated steering, lane guidance, lane-departure avoidance and disengagement/warning systems. FSD was active before the event but changed to “Unavailable” approximately 1.35 seconds before impact as the vehicle began moving left toward a barrier. The exact cause has not been independently determined. The vehicle remains in my possession and is available for inspection, along with the EDR report and Tesla data files. My safety and the safety of others were placed at risk because the vehicle departed its travel path at approximately 65–67 mph. The warning and disengagement sequence provided only about one to one-and-a-half seconds before impact. The vehicle struck the barrier at highway speed, deploying the left side and curtain airbags. This created a risk of serious injury, rollover or collision with nearby motorists. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer because the vehicle was rendered inoperable. However, Tesla’s data confirms that FSD was active, became unavailable approximately 1.35 seconds before the crash, and that the steering angle moved…”

“When engaging fsd, you can’t see the safety distance between you and the car in front of you for defensive driving. Even if you are supervising fsd at high speed on the freeway, the high speed and sudden possibility of fsd disengaging is dangerous. The fsd mode should allow for safe distance between you and vehicle in front to be set manually and if it can’t be set manually, it shouldn’t be allowed to following too closely to the front vehicle. It’s unfair and absolutely dangerous to all should the fsd disengage and the driver doesn’t have time to react even though we are responsibly supervising. This feature needs mitigation”

“While driving on the highway with Full Self-Driving (Supervised) engaged, the vehicle approached an exit that had been closed with traffic cones and road-closure signage. The vehicle failed to properly respond to the closure, continued through and struck multiple traffic cones, and ultimately collided with the road-closure equipment, causing significant front-end damage. My primary safety concern is that multiple safety systems appeared to provide no effective intervention. I observed no Forward Collision Warning, no Automatic Emergency Braking, and no effective automatic braking or avoidance maneuver, even after the vehicle had already begun striking traffic cones. There were no warning messages or indications of a system malfunction before the collision. This was a serious safety incident involving FSD, Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking, and the vehicle's obstacle-detection/collision-avoidance systems. I am requesting that Tesla immediately preserve and review all available vehicle data, including FSD status, camera/perception data, detected objects, vehicle speed, steering, braking commands, Forward Collision Warning events, Automatic…”

“My chat constantly phantom brakes. This is a constant issue, I ve had the car since it was new and almost everytime im in adaptive cruise control it randomly brakes. Today with nothing in front of my on 3 separate occasions it applies the brakes and forces me to accelerate to maintain speed.”
