Check out this report by a Tesla owner on Reddit whose car crashed into the same boulder as 5 other Teslas. What’s worse, is this guy wants to keep the story quiet so that Tesla doesn’t get bad press. It’s like Tesla is one giant fraud and even the customers are in on the scam.
Well that totally sucks... crashed my Model X in Yosemite...
5 Teslas (including mine) have had accidents at this very same spot in Yosemite... Rangers told me 3 Tesla accidents in the past here, then my accident... a local stopped to tell me their Tesla always has issues here and also say there've been multiple accidents here... then just today my tow truck driver sent me pictures of another accident with a Model S last Friday - that's 5 that I know of. This really needs to be alerted, I love Tesla but don't want to take to the media, just want to alert Tesla but several calls and emails doesn't lead to much interest. Would love them to fix this, and covering repairs and expenses and a loaner would be really nice of course.
Just sharing my story of my 2020 Model X LR+ accident on July 25th. 25mph speed zone, two lanes, lane one curves left, lane two goes straight. Hands on wheel, eyes on road, vehicle just wanted to keep going straight, I took control, entered gravel and smashed into a boulder. No airbag deployment, but couldn't drive. Towed out to entrance of park (2 hours, almost $400), then towed from there to Fresno (2.5 hours, $500), then took a 3 hour Uber to San Luis Obispo where I caught a ride from a friend (3 hours, almost $300)... then flew home from San Luis Obispo to Flagstaff, AZ ($613)... now having transported to Tesla Body Center in Tempe, AZ (over $900).
Just really, really want to figure out how to get this message to Tesla and have them do something and look at their maps... 5 accidents is definitely an issue that needs to be looked into. Thankfully a low speed 25mph zone... but it wanted to go straight or so it seems, then it barely followed the curve at the last minute and even with hands on the wheel there was no way I could stop or turn as it entered a gravel-covered area. Just got new CrossClimate SUV tires 3 days earlier... argh.
This was the same weekend my Model X kept thinking the moon was a yellow light and kept trying to slow/stop all the time... sheesh...
Again, had hands on the wheel and eyes on the road... this is my 3rd Tesla - had a 2016 Model S P90DL, a 2016 Model X P100DL+, a 2020 Model X LR+
The story is just beginning for this unlucky Tesla owner. He’s about to get a taste of the worst customer service in the industry. Based on all the stories about Tesla owners waiting months for replacement body parts, this guy is going to be waiting a long time to get his car back.
It’s amazing that Tesla gets away with selling a product that doesn’t exist. Their “Full Self Driving” is a scam. But without it, there would be no “profit” at Tesla. And people wonder why Tesla is called a big fraud.
