2024 Tesla Model Y vehicle speed control problems

“1. i was using tesla self driving standard on my vehicle it accelerated up to 19 miles over the recorded speed limit. 2. The speed limit was 55 and it went to 74 way to high and no way to lower it manually 3. Confirmation by the MD State Police radar 4. No inspection 5. There was no warnings. Consumers should be able to set the maximum speed desired or lower it if it goes to high manually, but you can't if you are using self driving options. You can go to chill which is the next level down but that is to slow. Consumers should be able to manual put the speed where they want to drive and feel safe. I was between two cars in the right lane driving down the highway. I believe my vehicle was keeping up with the flow of traffic but no way to slow it down unless i went out of standard self drive. Chill is the one below standard and that is to slow.”

“While exiting a drive-thru, I pressed the accelerator and the vehicle unexpectedly accelerated at a high rate of speed on its own. I attempted to brake, but the brakes did not respond. The vehicle struck a concrete median. Police report on file: East Hanover Township PD, Case #2026-12503.”

“I was using the Tesla FSD in stop and go traffic. At the moment I was moving with traffic at about 30 mph and then traffic started slowing down. The vehicle in front of me came to a complete stop. The FSD on my car started slowing down, but not fast enough. It rear-ended the vehicle at about 18 mph.”

“The contact owns a 2024 Tesla Model Y. The contact stated that while driving 25 MPH and making a right turn into an alley with another vehicle approaching, the contact stopped to reverse; however, while using the tap feature, the vehicle unintendedly accelerated and crashed into a concrete barrier twice. The vehicle was uncontrollable. The contact stated that the air bags failed to deploy. The crash was not captured on the camera inside the vehicle. A Police report was filed. There was no injury reported. The vehicle was towed to a towing lot and was next towed to the local dealer but was not yet diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 14,000.”

“• FSD received a software update earlier this same morning. • While navigating a parking garage under FSD, the vehicle initiated an unprompted reverse maneuver. • The reversal happened with no warning and no meaningful time for driver intervention before impact. • The vehicle struck a structural beam, causing damage to the vehicle above the rear driver side door, as well as shattering and causing splintering of the roof glass.”

“VEHICLE INFORMATION Year: 2024 Make: Tesla Model: Model Y Mileage at time of incident:1,288 Date of incident: XXX Location of incident: [XXX] On XXX, I was operating my 2024 Tesla Model Y in [XXX] when the vehicle experienced a sudden and unexpected malfunction of its Autopilot/autonomous driving system. The vehicle activated in Autopilot mode without my intentional input, causing me to lose control and resulting in a serious crash. Prior to the collision, the vehicle's Autopilot system, engaged without my input and abruptly accelerated. I was seriously injured as a result. The vehicle, a brand-new 2024 Tesla Model Y, was in normal operating condition with no prior mechanical issues. I had not modified the vehicle in any way. Following the crash, Tesla provided data to attorneys regarding the incident which I believe to be inaccurate and inconsistent with my experience. I am requesting that NHTSA: 1. Open a formal investigation into this incident 2. Investigate the accuracy and completeness of data Tesla provides following Autopilot-related crashes 3. Preserve my complaint as part of any ongoing investigation into Tesla Autopilot/FSD systems Was I injured? YES…”
