2017 TESLA MODEL X Suspension Problems

The contact owns a 2017 Tesla Model X. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the messages “Air Suspension Unable to Raise” and “Functionality May Be Restored on Next Drive” were displayed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or a dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 53,000.

Mileage: 53,000

I am reporting a safety concern related to the suspension system in my 2017 Tesla Model X. The front tires are rubbing against the wheel arch liner, especially when turning or driving over uneven terrain. I have not made any aftermarket modifications, and the vehicle has been maintained in accordance with Tesla’s recommendations. This issue appears to match the known problem involving front suspension fore link failures documented in NHTSA investigations and prior complaints for 2016–2017 Model X vehicles. While I have not experienced a complete suspension failure, the current symptoms are consistent with reported cases where the fore links weaken or fail, causing the wheel to shift and contact the fender liner, leading to tire damage, unusual noises, and potential safety risks. I have reported this to Tesla, but they have not acknowledged this as a known issue for my VIN. However, NHTSA previously identified over 400 instances of similar failure and recommended that Tesla expand their service bulletin to include more vehicles. This is a critical safety concern as it can lead to premature tire wear, loss of control, and further suspension failure. I am requesting that NHTSA review whether Tesla should issue a recall or cover this repair under a broader service campaign.

This is the THIRD YEAR in a row that the Suspension System on this vehicle has failed. This seems like it should be a basic feature of any vehicle - that it should have proper shocks and suspension. The problem is the repair this time is estimated to be at $4000, when we have already had this repaired twice for several thousands of dollars. We drive this car very gently, so there is not an issue of us abusing the vehicle. Also, in China, Tesla was forced to recall vehicles over this same issue: Tesla recalls nearly 50,000 Model S and X cars in China over faulty suspension We would like to know if any recalls will be issued.

Tesla Model X are already known to wear out the rear tires on the inside edge due to excessive negative camber, or wheels tilting inwards from the top. Lowering the suspension setting makes the wheels tilt in even further! This causes more the weight of the car to rest on the inner shoulder of the wheel. Driving this way quickly wears down the inside edge of the rear tires which can cause a sudden and unexpected dangerous blowout

Tesla rear camber arms (see the photo silver colored) fail due to the heavy battery load and will incur substantial negative camber angle causing severe inner tire wear and potential blow out of rear tires and causing accident and injury. Those camber arms are not adjustable as designed by Tesla on all vehicles of Model S, 3, X and Y on all vehicle years. This is a design flaw that Tesla was made aware of but they are reluctant to fix it. Also, if we as consumers fix this issue with an aftermarket adjustable camber arms (blue in color in the photo), Tesla would not do the wheel alignment.

Problem #1: The Components that failed are the front wheel fenders, they blew off while driving down the highway, they have since been repaired. the repairman said that these blow off all the time due to how they are installed with plastic clips and glue. My families safety was put at risk because the moment that this happened the sensor was showing something that was about to hit us. had the auto drive been enabled at this time the car could have taken measures to avoid what it thought was an object. We were also put at risk as well as others driving behind us by the parts blowing off onto a highway while driving at high speeds. The component was inspected by the service tech that worked for Tesla. I took the car into Tesla to have the car serviced before driving to California, they cleared the car and said that everything looked great, no warnings or symptoms. Problem #2: On the same drive to California, we had a error that showed as "Safety Restraint System Fault". This error seems to come and go so it may be available upon request depending on the day it is. The safety of my children are put at risk because we will not know when they are taking off their seatbelt due to this error. The Error has been inspected by Tesla on multiple occasions and they cannot seem to find how to fix this. I have another appointment with them on [XXX] to try again to fix it. There is a Warning, but it is very vague and does not let you know where the problem is. Problem #3: Tesla's Front Suspension Arms lose all Grease and start to make a grinding noise while going over minor bumps. This puts people at risk because at any moment the cars suspension could fail while driving due to the ware on the suspension. The component has been inspected by Tesla and they said that I should wait until the other arm starts to fail to replace them both at the same time. No warnings or anything has been shown due to this. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I have brought my vehicle back to Tesla 3 different occasions for the same issue ( Suspension failure) The first time, I was told that it was a malware issue. The second time in November 2023, I was told the compressor was bad. They charged me $623 to repair. The same problem with the suspension happened again the end of June 2024. Tesla told me that I had a leak on my suspension and that they could see the leak without me bringing the vehicle into the shop. They gave me an estimate for repair of $2,044. They told me that I had to wait until August 16 to bring it in to get repaired. When I get there the service manager states that they are backed up on repairs and it will take another 3 to 5 weeks before my vehicle can be fixed. I have been paying for a rental car out of pocket for over a month and now I won't be able to get my vehicle until September 6th. Tesla is using this knowledge about the suspension to make money! There should be a recall on the suspension at Tesla's expense. They have cost me thousands!

Car has 38k miles. Front of car started making creaking noises whenever moving. Diagnosed both upper control arms seized. Was told by the technician that Tesla found their error and the new Model Xs do not have this issue. From reading online, this is a VERY common issue for Tesla owners and Tesla is aware.

Front Suspension Lower Fore Links, yes it is available for inspection. The incident occur while driving the vehicle; which is ground for significant safety risk. The vehicle is in the process of getting towed. Vehicle has not yet been inspected. No warning signs, the vehicle just came out of Tesla Service Center.

The suspension system on the vehicle failed. The Tesla Roadside Service said I was able to drive it until I could get it fixed. However, that was incorrect information and I, or someone else could have been injured. The vehicle was repaired at the Telsa Service Center in Norwell MA. The warning that came on was something to the effect of auto suspension has been disabled. That was do to the failure.

I'm including a picture to go with a complaint I entered a few weeks ago. I took the vehicle to a repair shop that removed a broken bolt that Tesla said sheared off. more than 50% of the bolt was still in the cradle. The bolt snapped in a place where Tesla had a notch circling the bolt which made it weak at that point. I had the repair shop replace both of them with Tesla-approved bolts that are identical to the bolt that snapped. It appears that this was intentional and the repair shop indicated that there was no obvious reason the bolt needed to be scored around the circumference.

On or about August 27, 2023, I heard a loud noise as I was pulling out of a parking spot with my wheel turned to the left. As I drove away and over bumps, I heard loud metal-to-metal sounds coming from the front of the car. I scheduled an appointment with a Tesla service center and took it to them on September 8th, 2023. They found that a bold had sheared in half on the front stabilizer bar. They said it wasn't a manufacturer defect however I disagreed and requested it to be repaired out of warranty at their expense to make it safe and to put a stronger bolt on this time, but they refused. There were no warning lights before this occurred. I had my attorney send them a letter to persuade them to fix it however they have not responded in two months. The vehicle is a safety risk and I have found that this has occurred to other Tesla Model X owners. There is a class action lawsuit in California and Oregon for Tesla Model S and Model X suspension issues. The same car had premature wear of the upper control arm ball joints and the axle shafts have been replaced twice due to Tesla's admission of bad design and manufacturing. I have safety issues with the Fore Links and Aft Links as well.

Front control arms caused extremely difficult steering. No warning of failure displayed in vehicle. Suddenly noticed difficulty steering with squeaking and clunking noises. Tesla service replaced upper and lower control arms June 2023 and claim it’s a common repair in their vehicles with low miles. This vehicle has 37,100 miles. Sway bar links also repaired May 2022.

Control arm and both front struts failed

All of a sudden my vehicle has started making loud creaking/squeaking noises from the front passenger side suspension. It seems to occur with any movement of shift in the vehicle weight. Occurs when stopping or starting to move from a stopped position. It makes me very concerned that the suspension will fail as I’m driving. Using google I have discovered this a very common occurrence with Tesla Model X’s from 2016-2017. I asked my friend and he experienced the same issue on his 2016 Model X. The repair he stated was over $1,000. I believe if this a common occurrence then it should be a known defect. No collisions on my vehicle that could have caused this.

Issue regarding a persistent creaking noise emanating from the front passenger side of the vehicle. The noise has become increasingly loud, particularly when driving over bumpy roads, indicating a potential suspension problem. This matter has gained significant attention among Tesla users through a widely viewed video: YouTube Video: Creaking Noise from Front Passenger Side (link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iG23-p9AOA&ab_channel=KmanAuto) . Multiple Tesla consumer forums have also discussed similar concerns. Tesla service has quoted an approximate repair cost of $700. Due to the potential safety implications and the need for a thorough investigation, I urge immediate attention to address this issue promptly.

I suffered a catastrophic suspension failure on the front passenger side while traveling at 70 mph (speed limit).

Under heat and stress, we noticed the front of the car would make cracking and creaking noises. We took the car in and they informed us that the rear linkages of the left and right front suspension and the upper linkages of the left and right rear suspension were worn down significantly due to the weight of the overall car. Our entire suspension needed to be replaced due to significant cracking and stress fractures. Had we hit a speedbump too hard or a pothole, the suspension would have collapsed on us. We're lucky that we brought it in but we can't be the only ones with this issue. We've never towed anything in the car and primarily drive on the freeway with no more than 2 people ever in the car. I know China has recalled the Model X for this reason. Why have we not?

We were experiencing very difficult turning at low speeds. No vehicle warnings occurred. We took the vehicle in to Tesla service for evaluation. We were told the vehicle was unsafe to drive and they would not allow us to take the vehicle home. They have had the vehicle for 3 weeks and have replaced the "steering column" or "Left-Hand Steering Gear" on service estimate, but in the process have not fixed the problem and are now on week 4 of the repair. In investigating steering issues with Tesla, there appears to be a recall issued for 2015 and 2016 model years involving the steering column. We believe the same issue is affecting our 2017 Model and is in need of a recall as well.

Loud creaking noise on the front passenger side. This seems to be a very common model X problem. I was told the front upper control arms need to be replaced. I see absolutely no reason why any of those parts should be failing unless it was faulty parts/engineering.

Model X 100D makes noise during driving whenever I turned the steering wheel. Took it at Tesla service center for service and concurred the my concern and replaced front upper Arm. The suspension contributed to brand new tires to wear out quickly in less than a year. Driver and passengers windows fails to close after opening regularly, Map navigation and live traffic data does not work properly. During car in reverse, rear view camera blanks out. Tesla service center could duplicate my concern.

While driving my model X on highway, making quick turns on the power steering wheel felt too stiff in order to avoid car or objects. I took it to Tesla service center for inspection and confirmed the issue with the suspension. The replaced Front suspension, lower -Aft-LH/RH. Parts they replaced, Washer cam, Bolt H cam, Washer, Nordlock, Front suspension AFT link, Nut CLN HEX, NUT HF & adjusted camber caster toe. MCU unit continuous crashes or freezing & slow response, web browser, map and slow response to access A/C, I had to pay to replace MCU unit.

Car shudders at the acceleration. Service center said it’s a widely known issue with front half shaft and clevis mount. Tesla already admits it is a design fault but wouldn’t cover it under the drive unit warranty. Can nhtsa make it a recall? Thanks

The front air suspension perfectly failed right after 4 years manufacture warranty. It is life-threatening since my right front suspension drops all the way down. If this happens when I'm on a highway at high speed, it might kill me.

I bought Model X in 2017. Soon the suspension system failed and they had to replace the whole system. Again in Dec,2021 the whole system failed. I was given a quote for $5000 for replacing the compressor and the suspension. When they replaced the whole system back in 2019 I told them the car doesn't seem fine with suspension but they said they will extend the warranty if anything happens to it. But they didn't note that in the system and now they said replaced parts has only 1 year warranty and I have to pay out of pocket for the suspension in 2021.

As I was backing out of my driveway the passenger side front tire detached from the axel for no apparent reason. There was no accident, alert, or indication of anything being wrong with the vehcile.

Whenever I turn the steering wheel, the squeaking noise appear. I contacted the service center, without seeing my car, they know that I have to replace the both side front upper control arms which made me believe there is a well-known defect with it. The control arms plays very important role in steering the car, if there is a defect and Tesla won't recall it then it might kill someone after the driver can't control the car due to the defected upper arm.

2016-2017 Model X SUV: a possible front suspension link issue that can cause the tire to rub against the wheel arch. The attached picture shows an excessive wear of inside shoulder.

The contact owned a 2017 Tesla Model X. The contact's husband stated while driving 70 mph, a strange noise was heard coming from the rear driver side of the vehicle which resulted in the contact's husband losing control of the vehicle and collided with the median which brought the vehicle to a stop. None of the air bags deployed but no one was inquired and a police report was taken. The vehicle was towed to a junkyard where it was determined to be destroyed. The contact stated no warning lights was illuminated. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was unavailable.

The rear camber arms of both Tesla Model S and X suspension have fixed camber angle that only grows wider as the time passes, that would cause the inner side of tires to wear out more rapidly than the mid or outer tire sides. Tesla doesn’t offer a camber arm that is adjustable in order to fix this alignment issue. Due to this the tires blow out prematurely and can potentially cause severe accidents. Tesla doesn’t acknowledge this as a design defect to replace this as safety problem, hence I am reporting it here to investigate the matter.

The specific issue happen while I was I was pulling out of my driveway. The front passenger side suddenly started squeaking. After getting on the highway and accelerating, the car started shaking, and making louder and louder noises. Inspecting the assembly next to the front passenger side tire, I saw that the control arm assembly was making metal on metal contact and the wheel was not horizontally in place (it wiggles on steering). I took the car to the service center. They confirmed that the control arm assembly is corroded and that the issue could cause an accident if it happens while driving as I could lose steering control.

THE CAR SHUDDERS WHEN ACCELERATING. I HAVE HAD THE FRONT HALF SHAFTS REPLACED TWICE AND NOW THE SHUDDER IS BACK AGAIN. THEY SAY THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS, AS WELL AS THE NOISE THAT THE STEERING MECHANISM MAKES, AND THE FACT THAT THE MODEL X WIPERS DON'T WORK, BUT I HAVE TO PAY TO GET ALL THESE THINGS FIXED SINCE IT'S OUT OF WARRANTY.

I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE FOR A LITTLE OVER 3 YEARS AND IN THIS TIME I HAVE HAD TO TAKE THE VEHICLE IN OVER 10 TIMES. I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE VISITS FOR BOTH MY IN-CAR DASH SLOW, FREEZING, OR RESTARTING AND I HAVE HAD 3 VISITS RELATING TO WHAT I BELIEVE IS MY SUSPENSION NOT WORKING. MCU UNIT- THIS HAS STOPPED WORKING WHILE STARTING MY CAR WHERE THE SCREEN WOULD NOT LOAD AS WELL AS WHILE IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAY WHERE THE UNIT WILL FREEZE. I HAVE NOTICED IT MORE OFTEN WHEN ON LONGER ROAD TRIPS BUT IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED DURING DAY TO DAY ACTIVITY. SUSPENSION: WHILE UNDER WARRANTY I RECEIVED A MESSAGE SAYING THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH MY SUSPENSION, TESLA DIAGNOSTICS COULD NOT DETERMINE A PROBLEM BUT THEY PROACTIVELY FIXED A PART. NOT SURE IF THIS IS KNOWN PART THAT WAS FAILING BUT IT WAS A PROACTIVE APPROACH. MONTHS LATER I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN B/C IT WAS MAKING A LOUD MOTOR NOISE, THEN HISSING WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN MY GARAGE. I DID NOT KNOW AT THE TIME BUT I THINK THIS MAY HAVE BEEN THE 1ST SIGNS OF A LEAK IN MY SUSPENSION SYSTEM. ONCE AGAIN TESLA COULD NOT DIAGNOSIS OR RECREATE THE PROBLEM. LESS THAN A YEAR LATER FROM THAT VISIT TO THE SERVICE CENTER MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT RAISE OR LOWER. THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT IT NEEDED TO BE BROUGHT TO THE SERVICE CENTER SO INITIALLY I THOUGHT IT MAY JUST BE AN ISSUE BECAUSE IT WAS VERY COLD OUTSIDE. AFTER TAKING IT IN AGAIN, TESLA TRIED A REPAIR THAT WAS GOING TO COST ABOUT $500, THE NEXT DAY THEY TOLD ME THE REPAIR DID NOT TAKE AND A MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE REPAIR WOULD BE NECESSARY ABOUT $6,000. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAT 100,000 MILES ON IT AND I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE SUSPENSION FAILING AS I HAVE READ A LOT OF INFORMATION OF OTHER TESLAS HAVING SIMILAR ISSUES. WITHOUT A 3-RD PARTY TO TAKE IT TO IN MY AREA, I FELT I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO PAY THE FEE AND LET TESLA FIX IT. TESLA DISCOUNTED BY 10%.

I'M NOT FROM THE US, BUT WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT THERE ARE ALSO SAFETY PROBLEMS WITH MODEL X CARS IN EUROPE. MY CAR, A TESLA X FROM APRIL 2017 WITH 93.682 KILOMETERS DRIVEN BROKE DOWN WITH A BROKEN SUSPENSION PART. THE WHEEL WAS MOVING FOR- AND BACKWARDS COMPARED TO THE VEHICLE. TESLA CALS THE PART FORE LINK ASSY LH (1041570-00-B). WHEN PARKING THE CAR IN REVERSE, THE FRONT A THE CAR CAME UP FOR 5 CENTIMETERS. IT HAPPENED ALSO DRIVING SLOWLY FORWARD. THE BIG RING ON THE END OF THIS PART (THE SITE THAT IS CONNECTED CLOSE TO THE WHEEL) WAS COMPLETELY TORN OPEN. TESLA ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE LEFT AND RIGHT FR SUSP AFT LINK ASSY BECAUSE OF "WEAR AND TEAR". UPPER CONTROL ARM WERE ALREADY REPLACED IN JUNE 2020. REAR MOTOR REPLACED JANUARI 2018, ELECTRONICS FOR OPENING FRONT DOORS REPLACED IN MARCH 2020, NEW POWER STEERING APRIL 2020. I LIKE YOU TO INVITE THE ALSO LOOK AT SUSPENSION SAFETY ISSUES IN EUROPE WITH THE MODEL X AND S. THESE ISSUES HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH ROAD CONDITIONS, WE HAVE VERY NICE SMOOTH ROADS HERE IN THE NETHERLANDS. I MADE A VIDEO OF THE MOVEMENT OF THE FRONT LEFT WHEEL.

THE OWNER IS IDENTIFIABLE FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHS AND IT WOULD BE VERY EASY FOR NHTSA TO CONTACT HIM AND OBTAIN THE BROKEN PART FOR INSPECTION. IT WOULD ALSO BE VERY EASY TO TRACE THE TESLA SERVICE CENTER RECORDS. HERE IS THE TEXT OF THE COMPLAINT THAT THE OWNER HAS POSTED ON TWITTER. HIS PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE FRACTURED PARTS ARE INCLUDED WITH THIS SUBMISSION. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS. IT IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. IT IS A DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING DEFECT.. **@ELONMUSK @TESLA MY TESLA X ((EASILY)) FELL APART. MY ((FAMILY)) WAS IN THE CAR. TESLA JUST REPLACED THE PART WITH THE SAME PART & NEVER ANSWERED IMPORTANT QUESTIONS I HAVE. FEELING UNSAFE IN YOUR X. THE MANAGER DID NOT CARE. PLEASE HAVE CORPORATE CALL ME TO DISCUSS** PLEASE NOTE: DUMMY US ADDRESS USED BECAUSE YOUR WEBSITE WILL NOT ACCEPT AN OVERSEAS ADDRESS. MY GENUINE CONTACT DETAILS ARE SUPPLIED.

THERE HAS BEEN A FATAL TESLA CRASH IN MOUNTAIN VIEW CALIFORNIA. THE PHOTOGRAPHS WHICH I HAVE ATTACHED SHOWS THE LH FRONT WHEEL HAS BEEN SLICED IN HALF AND IS LYING ON THE GROUND ON THE LH SIDE OF THE BARRIER. THE TIRE OF THE TESLA IS LYING ON THE GROUND. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE THAT THE WHEEL COULD HAVE BEEN SLICED IN HALF BY A COLLISION WITH THE BARRIER. THE WHEEL HAS BEEN SLICED THROUGH BY A BROKEN SUSPENSION COMPONENT JAMMING INTO THE INSIDE OF THE WHEEL WHILE IT WAS ROTATING JUST AS THOUGH IT WAS TURNING ON A LATHE AND HAD A TOOL FORCED INTO IT. THERE CAN BE NO DOUBT THAT THIS WHEEL WAS SLICED BEFORE HITTING THE BARRIER. THERE IS A SINGLE WHEEL SKID MARK JUST BEFORE THE CRASH SITE. SINCE THE TESLA HAS ABS WHICH SHOULD PREVENT WHEEL LOCK UP AND SINCE THIS IS JUST A SINGLE WHEEL SKID MARK IT IS ALMOST CERTAIN THAT THIS WAS THE START OF THE SLICED WHEEL EVENT. I WOULD NOT BE SO CERTAIN OF THIS IF NOT FOR THE FACT THAT SEVERAL IDENTICAL CASES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND THE DETAILS HAVE BEEN REPORTED TO NHTSA PREVIOUS TO THIS FATAL CRASH. PLEASE LOOK UP REPORTS #11080798 #10957436 #11042736 #11040822 THE ONLY OTHER CASES OF CAR WHEELS GETTING SLICED IN HALF THAT I CAN FIND ON THE WEB ARE JUST A VERY FEW OLD MODEL CARS THAT HAVE BEEN BADLY MAINTAINED OR REPAIRED. FOR THIS SORT OF FAILURE TO BE HAPPENING ON NEAR NEW TESLA CARS IS SIMPLY UNACCEPTABLE. I HAVE FILE MANY REPORTS OF BROKEN TESLA SUSPENSIONS AND MANY OF THOSE COULD EASILY HAVE CAUSED A SLICED WHEEL. I AM NOT FILING THESE REPORTS FRIVOLOUSLY. I AM TRYING TO PREVENT FURTHER LOSS OF LIFE. PLEASE TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY. THANK YOU.

HERE IS A MODEL X IN THE JUNKYARD: HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=27010294&ROWNUMBER=13&LOADRECENT=TRUE THE SUSPENSION HAS COLLAPSED ON ALL FOUR WHEELS. THE AIR-BAGS HAVE DEPLOYED BECAUSE THE CAR STOPPED ABRUPTLY WHEN ALL FOUR WHEELS JAMMED UP IN THE WHEEL WELLS. THERE IS NO COLLISION DAMAGE. THE ONLY DAMAGE TO THE CAR IS SELF INFLICTED DUE TO THE SUSPENSION COLLAPSE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THE REASONS FOR THESE FREQUENT FAILURES IN ALMOST NEW CARS. IN THIS THREAD AN OWNER REPORTS A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR SUSPENSION IN A BRAND NEW CAR: HTTPS://TESLAMOTORSCLUB.COM/TMC/THREADS/MY-MODEL-S-100D-BROKEN-IMMEDIATELY-AFTER-I-TOOK-DELIVERY.104956/ SNIP** NOT 3 MINUTES INTO MY FIRST DRIVE, I WAS MET WITH AN ERROR ON THE DASHBOARD AND CENTER SCREEN THAT SAID "AIR SUSPENSION NEEDS SERVICE, CONTACT TESLA SERVICE". I DECIDED TO DRIVE BACK TO THE DELIVERY CENTER AND SHOW THEM, BUT THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO FIX IT. SO 30 MINUTES INTO OWNERSHIP OF MY BRAND NEW 100D AND I WAS ALREADY DRIVING IT TO THE SERVICE CENTER. THEY TOOK THE CAR AT AROUND 4 PM AND IT'S 10:30 AM THE NEXT DAY AND HAVEN'T HEARD BACK YET.** PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM REPORTING THESE SUSPENSION COMPLAINTS IN THE INTERESTS OF PUBLIC SAFETY. A DUMMY USA ADDRESS HAS BEEN USED TO SATISFY YOUR WEBSITE REQUIREMENTS BUT MY CORRECT NAME AND EMAIL ADDRESS IS SUPPLIED.

HERE IS A MODEL X IN A JUNKYARD IN UNITED KINGDOM: HTTPS://WWW.COPART.CO.UK/LOT/47617487/PHOTOS THE AUCTION LISTS THE CAR AS HAVING SUSPENSION DAMAGE. THE SUSPENSION HAS COLLAPSED ON ALL 4 WHEELS. AIR-BAGS HAVE DEPLOYED AND THERE IS SOME DAMAGE TO THE BODYWORK. IT IS EXTREMELY LIKELY THAT THE CAUSE OF ALL THE DAMAGE WAS A CASE OF TESLA SUSPENSION COLLAPSE. OWNERS HAVE BEEN DECEIVED INTO THINKING THEY ARE DRIVING ONE OF THE SAFEST CARS IN THE WORLD. REALITY IS THAT THESE CARS ARE INVOLVED IN VERY MANY CRASHES CAUSED BY MECHANICAL FAILURES AND THAT THE CAR SHATTERS LIKE AN EGGSHELL IN A SERIOUS CRASH. PLEASE TAKE ACTION TO PREVENT MORE DEATHS AND INJURIES. THANK YOU. CONCERNED CITIZEN

HERE IS A MODEL X IN THE JUNKYARD:HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=26559880&ROWNUMBER=38&LOADRECENT=TRUE IT HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN A MAJOR FRONT END COLLISION AND IS LISTED AS BIO-HAZARD WHICH MEANS THAT OCCUPANTS HAVE BEEN INJURED. THE FRONT END IS BADLY DAMAGED BUT THE REAR END OF THE CAR IS COMPLETELY UNDAMAGED EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT THE LH BACK WHEEL HAS GONE TOTALLY WHOMPY. IT IS EXTREMELY LIKELY THAT THE WHOMPY WHEEL WAS THE CAUSE OF THE CRASH AND NOT SIMPLY A RESULT OF IMPACT DAMAGE. THE WHEEL AND TIRE ARE COMPLETELY UNDAMAGED AS IS THE REAR OF THE CAR. IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE THAT THE WHOMPY WHEEL WAS CAUSED BY AN IMPACT SINCE THE WHEEL WOULD BE EXPECTED TO BREAK BEFORE THE SUSPENSION FELL APART IF THE SUSPENSION WAS BUILT TO NORMAL AUTOMOTIVE STANDARDS. PLEASE DO NOT CONTINUE TO GIVE TESLA THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT. A RECALL FOR THESE FRAGILE AND DEFECTIVE SUSPENSION COMPONENTS IS LONG OVERDUE. THANK YOU. CONCERNED CITIZEN. DATE OF INCIDENT IS AN APPROXIMATION. SPEED AND INJURIES ARE AN APPROXIMATION BASED UPON THE PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE. VEHICLE IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION AT THE JUNKYARD.

HERE IS A MODEL X IN THE JUNKYARD: HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=26708909&ROWNUMBER=2&LOADRECENT=TRUE NO AIR BAGS HAVE DEPLOYED WHICH MEANS THAT IT HAS NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN A MAJOR COLLISION. THE ENTIRE FRONT SUSPENSION HAS BEEN RIPPED OFF. THIS LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER CASE OF SELF INFLICTED INJURY CAUSED BY THE FLIMSY SUSPENSION BEING UNABLE TO COPE WITH THE FORCES GENERATED BY THIS HEAVY AND POWERFUL CAR. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THE REASON FOR SO MANY OF THESE CARS SIMPLY FALLING TO BITS ON THE HIGHWAYS. THANK YOU. CONCERNED CITIZEN FILING THIS COMPLAINT IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST.

HERE IS ANOTHER MODEL X IN THE JUNKYARD. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=26559880&ROWNUMBER=51&LOADRECENT=TRUE IT HAS BEEN IN A FRONT END COLLISION AND HAS BIO-HAZARD STICKERS INDICATING THAT OCCUPANTS HAVE BEEN INJURED. THE FRONT END IS BADLY DAMAGED BUT THE BACK END OF THE CAR IS UNTOUCHED EXCEPT THAT THE BACK LEFT WHEEL IS CANTED OVER AT AN ANGLE MEANING THAT THE SUSPENSION IS BROKEN. THE WHEEL AND TIRE ARE UNDAMAGED SO IT IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY THAT THE SUSPENSION WAS BROKEN BY IMPACT DAMAGE. AS CAN BE SEEN FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE FRONT END THE TESLA WHEELS ARE RELATIVELY FRAGILE AND WOULD BE EXPECTED TO FAIL BEFORE THE SUSPENSION DID. BROKEN TESLA SUSPENSIONS HAVE SOMETIMES CAUSED RUPTURED BRAKE HOSES. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT MAY HAVE BEEN A FACTOR IN THIS CRASH. THESE SAME SUSPENSION FAILURES ARE HAPPENING REPEATEDLY. PLEASE INVESTIGATE CONCERNED CITIZEN. NAME AND ADDRESS SUPPLIED.

HERE IS A RECENTLY UPLOADED VIDEO IN WHICH A TESLA OWNER COMPLAINS OF EXCESSIVE VIBRATION FROM THE FRONT WHEELS OF HIS MODEL X: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=JKCQL5L-NJ4 HE IS ON THE PHONE TO TESLA WHO ADVISE THAT ENGINEERING IS WORKING ON THE PROBLEM BUT THERE IS NOT YET A FIX AVAILABLE. HE IS ASSURED THAT THE CAR IS PERFECTLY SAFE TO DRIVE (YEAH..RIGHT!). GIVEN THE LARGE NUMBER OF CARS THAT HAVE EXPERIENCE SUDDEN BREAKAGE OF SUSPENSION COMPONENTS I BELIEVE THAT AT THE VERY MINIMUM THE CAR SHOULD BE TAKEN IN FOR A SAFETY INSPECTION. IF AN OWNER REPORTS ABNORMAL VIBRATION IT IS UTTERLY RECKLESS TO TELL THAT CUSTOMER IT IS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT THE CAR WILL NOT SOON EXPERIENCE A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. NO OTHER CAR-MAKER WOULD BE FOOLISH ENOUGH TO PLACE LIVES AT RISK IN SUCH A FASHION. COMMENTS ON THAT VIDEO PROVE THAT OTHER OWNERS ARE ALSO EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY. THANK YOU. CONCERNED CITIZEN.

HERE IS A MODEL X IN THE JUNKYARD: HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=26452947&ROWNUMBER=50&LOADRECENT=TRUE THE FRONT SUSPENSION HAS BROKEN AND THE WHEEL HAS BEEN SLICED IN HALF WHILE IT WAS STILL ROTATING. THE BACK WHEEL HAS GONE DECIDEDLY WHOMPY WHICH WOULD HAVE MADE THE CAR DIFFICULT TO STEER. NO AIR-BAGS HAVE DEPLOYED. THIS WAS NOT A CRASH. IT WAS A CASE OF SUSPENSION COLLAPSE CAUSED BY A SIMPLE AIR LEAK OR EVEN A FAULTY SOFTWARE OVER THE AIR UPGRADE. IT IS SIMPLY MIND BOGGLING THAT THIS CONTRAPTION HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED. PLEASE TAKE ACTION. THANK YOU. CONCERNED CITIZEN.

HERE IS A 2017 MODEL X IN THE JUNKYARD. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLE?ITEMID=25188896&ROWNUMBER=15&LOADRECENT=TRUE BOTH FRONT WHEELS AND SUSPENSIONS HAVE FALLEN COMPLETELY OFF AND ONE OF THE BACK WHEELS HAS GONE ALL WHOMPY. THERE IS NO SIGN OF COLLISION DAMAGE APART FROM THE FRONT SUSPENSION COLLAPSE WHICH HAS DESTROYED THE WHEEL ARCHES. THESE SUSPENSION FAILURES ARE OCCURRING AT A RIDICULOUSLY HIGH RATE AND IN NEAR NEW CARS SO IT CAN NOT BE BLAMED UPON POOR MAINTENANCE. PLEASE TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY RATHER THAN WAITING FOR MORE LIVES TO BE LOST. THANK YOU. CONCERNED CITIZEN.
