Complaint Summary

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

Owner Narrative

As I approached a red light with a car in front of me, I took my foot off the accelerator to use Tesla's regenerative braking, but instead the car rapidly accelerated and crashed into the car in front of me. It seemed like unintended acceleration.
