Recalls and investigations
Exterior lighting, headlightsAug 5, 2026
Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling certain 2017-2023 Model 3 and 2020-2023 Model Y vehicles. The headlight low beams may be too bright and exceed the maximum light output. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
Headlight low beams that are too bright can reduce visibility for oncoming drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy is currently under development. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed October 3, 2026. Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752. Tesla's number for this recall is SB-24-17-003.

The FSD Beta system may allow the vehicle to act unsafe around intersections, such as traveling straight through an intersection while in a turn-only lane, entering a stop sign-controlled intersection without coming to a complete stop, or proceeding into an intersection during a steady yellow traffic signal without due caution. In addition, the system may respond insufficiently to changes in posted speed limits or not adequately account for the driver's adjustment of the vehicle's speed to exceed posted speed limits.
FSD Beta software that allows a vehicle to exceed speed limits or travel through intersections in an unlawful or unpredictable manner increases the risk of a crash.

While traveling on RT 27 South in Florida on a bright sunny day with no traffic around the car and on adaptive cruise control my Tesla Model Y "phantom" braked twice within a mile or two of these incidents. This has happened several times before while on Full Self Driving mode but the first while on cruise control.

i WAS DRIVING SOUTH ON i-75 ABOUT 10AM on January 16, 2022. Traffics was moderated as I was driving in the left lane about 60 mph following another car. It had suddenly started snowing rather hard and the road was wet as it had been for the previous 50 miles. I felt no change in the road or car handling. Another dark SUV started passing me on the left. That seemed normal until the dark car was about 3/4 of the way passed me. Suddenly my Tesla swung to the left and came in contact with the right rear panel of the SUV. I tried to correct my car but it suddenly went out of control to the left. My car suddenly was out of my control and skidded side ways with the right side of the car coming in contract with the guard rail in the center. It happened so fast I could not react as the car took out about 20-30 feet of metal guard rail. It spun around and ended in the center ditch facing the opposite direction. Air bag on the right side deployed and I was in contact with the center front seat. Car was badly damaged with the damage protion mostly the right side of the car. Police came about 30 minutes later. At first I told him I was uninjured but after about 10 minutes my right leg started hurning and I requested an ambulance with took me to the hospital in Corwin Ky. That leg swelled up and x-rays and MRI were taken. Please talk a look at the vided on youtube under TESLACAM... there is a video of the same thing happening to a Tesla driver on a highway in Southern California. I do not know if this is related to the sudden breaking problem with Teslas. I have been driving for over 50 years and this is my first serious accient.

The contact owns a 2020 Tesla Model Y. The contact stated while driving at various speeds with the adaptive cruise control activated the vehicle would erroneously reduce speed. The failure occurred on multiple occasions. On another occasion, while driving 70 MPH, the vehicle abruptly decelerated to 50 MPH. The cause of the failure was not determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 3,000.

Air bags, Service brakes, Forward collision avoidance, Sep 28, 2021, crash
The car suddenly picked up the speed in the parking lot, went over the car stopper, curb and hit the Tree. The airbags never got activated, OR the sensors were nonfunctional. I received a call in less than 1 minute from Tesla Roadside if I was safe. Paramedics took me to the ER by 911. I had some injuries because of a malfunction of airbags, brakes, and warning systems. The car is towed to the nearby Tesla-approved repair place. I am somewhat concerned about the cause, and I believe Tesla knew what had malfunctioned in their car. I have been a safe driver without traffic tickets and accidents ever in the last 45 years.

On 5/24/21, I was driving in the rain on a busy 6 lane highway.I was driving under speed limit. The car hydroplaned across 3 lanes, past the divider and spun 180 degrees and I was able to bring it to a halt with fierce braking just before it crossed onto the other side. Some damage to car. I was unhurt. Sheriff came to assist me to safety.

I was driving East on May 7, 2021, on I-94 toward New Buffalo, MI, on a clear day; no rain. A semi-truck was going 60 mph in the center lane of three lanes. I moved to the left lane to pass as I was going about 70 mph, the posted speed limit. There were no cars ahead of me in my lane for as far as I could see. Another car pulled up behind me very close—way too close—tailgating me. I was passing the truck and was parallel to the truck when suddenly the Tesla automatically slammed on my brakes!!! The idiot who was tailgating me fortunately reacted quickly and also slammed on his brakes and simultaneously swerved hard left onto the shoulder—thereby averting what could have been a fatal accident!! My car could have been pushed into the wheels of the truck on my right and we could have been killed!! I was badly shaken but, fortunately, we were not injured and there was no crash. When we arrived at our destination I phoned the salesman at the Chicago Tesla sales office and described the incident. I asked him if I could disable the automatic braking feature and he talked me through the procedure. The Tesla has a rear-facing video camera. I believe Tesla should program that camera to see a tailgating car and make certain that no automatic braking be engaged if a car is following too close!! I believe Tesla should investigate why this happened and should reprogram the software yo prevent it from happening again. I sent the Tesla Company two electronic messages through the Tesla Phone App as the Tesla salesman suggested, but I have not received any response more than one week later. This is irresponsible!! We could have been killed yet Tesla has ignored my two messages! If Tesla does not fix this problem, it is certain that people will die in a parallel situation. We were just very lucky.

Structure, Service brakes, Oct 9, 2020, crash
OCTOBER 8 2020, 5:00PM. HEAVY TRAFFIC ON I-5 NORTH AT ANAHEIM, CA NEAR HARBOR BLVD/BALL RD EXIT. I HAD JUST CHANGED LANES TO THE RIGHT IN PREPARATION TO TAKE THE EXIT. DUE TO HEAVY TRAFFIC, MY SPEED WAS APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH. IMMEDIATELY AFTER SETTLING TO THE NEW LANE, TOYOTA RAV4 IN FRONT OF ME BRAKES AGGRESSIVELY. I WAS ABOUT 6 FT FROM THIS CAR, AND IMMEDIATELY PRESSED MY TESLA Y BRAKE PEDAL HARD IN AN ATTEMPT TO AVOID COLLISION. BUT, MY TESLA Y WOULD NOT STOP. THE WHEELS DID NOT LOCK INTO FULL BRAKING. TESLA'S AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING DID NOT ENGAGE, AND ITS COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM DID NOT ALERT ME. AS I AM PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL HARD, ALL I CAN DO IS TO WITNESS THAT WE WILL COLLIDE. NONE OF TESLA Y'S SAFETY FEATURES ENGAGED TO SAVE ME FROM THIS COLLISION.*LN*JB
