| Description of the problem | My tesla didn't stop when i applied the brakes, i had a clear distance space between my car and the car i rear ended, any other car would have stopped when you apply the brakes but i think i felt like my car accelerated even i applied the brakes and never stopped. I would sincerely want you to investigate further my case as it could be dangerous for other cars outside when the car behaves this way. I did let tesla know about what happened and they are yet to get back to me with the details of their findings! |
