I went to start my car and the screen was black. My car hasn't been driven for 5 months since I was traveling. I had cleared all of the memory (navigation, addresses, music stations, etc.), prior to leaving. I was in traffic and the turning signals didn't work. The safety of the car felt compromised since the turning signals, rear backup camera, suspension -basically most of the car controls were in-operatable.

On thursday, september 26, 2019, at 7:40 am, I was parking my car at work and my car went on full speed forward over the median and crashed, luckily no one was hurt. This happened in a split of a second and the vehicle's safety override break that should have prevented from going over an obstruction in front of the car did not engage as claimed by tesla. I requested an analysis of the car's recorded data to tesla and asked to provide me with a copy of the report for better understanding. After weeks of analysis, an employee from tesla called and informed that it was my fault as the gas paddle was fully engaged, I was astonished as I did not hit the gas paddle rather I just let my foot off the break to park my car slowly in the parking space and the car took off with speed as if I put full force to gas paddle. As for getting a copy of the report, he said that he will have to ask the engineers and let me know. It has been four months, and no one reached out to me about the report. Some people saw the whole incident and said that I reduced the speed of my car to park and suddenly it took off and went forward fast. At that moment, it felt like the car was controlled by someone else as pressing on a break was not stopping the car and finally, I had to press the park to stop it. I have been driving the car to my work and parking at the same parking lot every day for the last 3 years. My insurance totaled the car and provided the residual value, to this date I am without a car and trying to fix the damages of my car. I almost gave up but saw the news that I am not alone about tesla denying similar claims of hundreds of sudden acceleration crashes. Tesla have the data and I am requesting tesla to take full responsibility and compensate for my damage. I am requesting the federal safety agency to investigate and help bring closure to this matter.
I was driving my tesla model x EV home and there were no problems. When I pulled into the driveway the self driving features accelerated the vehicle causing an accident.
I was in a parking lot waiting on a lunch order. After getting my order I was ready to pull the car out of my parking space. The car was stationary and not moving . As I step on the gas to pull out , the car went into 100% acceleration forward climb the curb and crash into a concrete wall that surround the garbage dumpster . The wall was about 3 to 5 feet from my parking space.I contacted tesla and was told I step on the gas 100% in under 2 second , and they would not claim responsibility . As I tell them I am 100% sure I did not step on anything 100%( gas or break ) when I am in a busy parking lot. They still denied and said it was my fault .
Autopilot safety hazard creating a crash with me and my son. On july 25th, 2016 at 4:30am I was involved in a accident with my tesla model x 2016 within 3 weeks of ownership. The road was wide open with only a few cars and great condition for autopilot, we entered in a construction zone without any construction occurring at the time. Per the picture attached you will see that there is 2 yellow lanes, but the tesla detected on autopilot only the farthest closest to the guardrail making the car driving straight to the have duty construction cones. The road was in good condition and acceptable to activate autopilot. Airbags was not deployed.
