Complaint Summary
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Owner Narrative
While driving my Tesla, Autopilot was engaged and navigating with the destination entered. At the time of the incident, my hand was on the steering wheel when the vehicle suddenly attempted to make a hard right turn toward a divider. This was not an exit or intended route, which raises serious concerns about what caused the vehicle to react that way. In addition, I have experienced multiple battery-related issues with this vehicle. The battery has already been replaced once, and on approximately 2â3 occasions the vehicle entered âTurtle Mode,â limiting the car to about 35â50 mph. This created a serious safety hazard because it occurred while I was driving on the highway alongside tractor-trailers and fast-moving traffic.
