With so many defective vehicles driving down the road, all Model S cars should come with a warning plastered to the side that they are dangerous to be near. There are no tech bulletins, maybe because the company doesn’t utilize traditional service centers that customers are used to. I feel this is a safety hazard and should be fixed.”įor now, Tesla has failed to respond to the problems with this safety system. Fortunately, no one was following close to me. During a 90-mile trip last weekend, my car phantom braked almost a dozen times, sometimes severely. I’ve noticed the phantom braking occurs most often when an oncoming tall vehicle (18-wheeler, RV/motor home) approaches, or I approach an underpass, or I approach a large shadow on the road (from a building or large tree). It’s worse on undivided highways (with no median). “When using cruise control (TACC) with or without using lane centering (Autosteer), my vehicle will often brake suddenly (and harshly) for no reason at all. One such example is with the forward collision avoidance, which can be better understood by this NHTSA complaint. The Tesla Model S is designed with top-level safety systems included to provide a better drive, but these programs don’t seem to work as intended. Problems with the Forward Collision Avoidance

So, not only can drivers play games while on the road, but they can also go unbuckled for good measure.
#2022 TESLA MODEL S DRIVER#
If the driver hasn’t buckled their seat belt, the alarm will not let them know, thereby leading to a higher chance of injury. NHTSA Campaign Number 22V025000 states that more than 800,000 vehicles might have been built with a seat belt chime that doesn’t work. Passenger Play is only meant to be used when the vehicle is in Park and it’s leading to a lot of driver distractions on the road. The Action Number is PE21023 and the investigation states that the gameplay function is visible on the front touchscreen when the car is in motion. If that’s not bad enough, the Model S is currently under investigation by the NHTSA. Since I had planned to take a long trip across Michigan’s Upper Peninsula this morning where there are few charging opportunities, and since I cannot assume that the battery pre-conditioned (which extends the range of the vehicle) if I had not aborted my trip I feel I could have been in a life-threatening situation due to extreme cold.” The temperature here in northern Wisconsin at the time of this incident was -13 F. When I entered the car at that time, the cabin had not heated up – the message on the display screen stated that the cabin heater was not functioning properly and that I should seek service. “Last night, I plugged in the car (2022 Tesla Model 3 Long Range) as I normally do and, via the Tesla app, scheduled the car cabin to be heated and the battery to be pre-conditioned by a specified time. However, customers are flooding the internet with complaints. Therefore, Tesla offering such significant price reductions is a sure-shot indicator that the Tesla Model S hasn’t been performing as well as it used to, that too, on a consistent basis.The electrical system in a Tesla should be leaps and bounds beyond other manufacturers considering this is an electric car. The dampened demand combined with an overestimation of sales projections dictates that the price of the product would drop. So, why are we talking about Tesla offering such significant price reductions for the Tesla Model S? Well, it all ties back to the most basic theory of economics - the price equilibrium theory. This price reduction will be the third price reduction that Tesla has announced on the Tesla Model S. We’re talking about a massive discount of $5000. While every vehicle in the Tesla portfolio has seen a price cut, the price reduction announced on the Tesla Model S is the most significant to date. In fact, Tesla has yet again announced price cuts not just for the Tesla Model S but for its entire lineup.
Although, it is quite uncommon to see a price cut in luxury cars that is exactly what Tesla has done.
With a decrease in demand, any business would focus on pushing sales, and what's the best way to do that? Offer incentives and price cuts, of course.
