Campaign #26V507000

On [XXX], at approximately [XXX] in Baker, California, my 2022 Tesla Model 3 contacted charging equipment and protective barriers while moving slowly into a charging space during what I observed to be an Autopark maneuver. I was watching the vehicle camera display and was not manually steering or accelerating. The car did not show or sound any warning before impact. It was not raining. No one was injured, there was no fire, and no police report was filed. There was visible damage to the side of the vehicle. No one has inspected the damage yet. The vehicle will be available for inspection after my trip. I reported the incident to Tesla and requested preservation and review of available records. The data export I received did not contain incident-specific camera recordings, Autopark/control logs or EDR data that I could identify. No recording USB drive was located. I have damage photographs and a charging-session record. The cause has not been independently determined, and I have not received a substantive engineering finding. I am reporting a possible safety issue with Autopark for investigation. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My Tesla was operating with Full Self-Driving (FSD) (Supervised) engaged when it initiated a left turn across the path of an oncoming vehicle traveling in the opposite direction, resulting in a collision. During the incident, FSD was controlling the vehicle's driving behavior and initiated the left turn despite the presence of oncoming traffic. The Tesla collided with the approaching vehicle while executing the turn. I am concerned that the FSD system failed to properly recognize or respond to oncoming traffic, failed to determine whether the left turn could be safely completed, or made an unsafe decision to turn across the path of another vehicle. This incident created a significant safety risk for the occupants of both vehicles. I believe the collision may indicate a safety-related problem involving FSD's intersection handling, left-turn decision-making, detection of approaching vehicles, or collision avoidance capabilities. I request that NHTSA review this incident as a potential FSD safety defect and obtain relevant FSD engagement records, vehicle telemetry, camera footage, steering commands, and collision data from Tesla to determine why the vehicle initiated the left turn into oncoming traffic.

FSD failed to completely stop. I have video footage from Tesla showing the FSD stayed active and never disengaged yet the Tesla disengaged the brake. I can text or email the video pricing the car was actively using FSD until impact. I had the self driving enabled the vehicle decelerated from about 45 mi down to 0 MI but when the vehicle reach 1 mile it disengage the brake allowing the car to roll into the car in front of me I literally had less than one second to react I really believe the car will stop on its own. I have video proof the video was in full self driving mode and we all know the Tesla's are designed not to run into the back of any vehicle. I posted the video online and received numerous comments saying that the gas pedal and the brake were pressed at the same time however per Tesla you cannot press the gas and brake at the same time on any Tesla. My car has also pulled off from Red light intersections if I'm the first one at the light with the light still being read the car just accelerates on it's on it goes right through the intersection this is also messed up and I'm sure Tesla is aware of this as well. I'm terrified to drive this car with the self-driving engage. I want Elon musk to respond to me personally and apologize. PLEASE follow up with me so I can send y'all the video.

The contact owns a 2022 Tesla Model 3.

When the chair automatically moves to the easy in and out setting it does so without any safety measure to stop it moving when blocked. It is so strong that it crushed my hydroflask water bottle when it was stuck beneath. If that had been a foot or arm of a person, or if they were just unable to move away then it could cause serious injury like broken bones or crushing.
