Narrative

VEHICLE INFORMATION Year: 2024 Make: Tesla Model: Model Y Mileage at time of incident:1,288 Date of incident: XXX Location of incident: [XXX] On XXX, I was operating my 2024 Tesla Model Y in [XXX] when the vehicle experienced a sudden and unexpected malfunction of its Autopilot/autonomous driving system. The vehicle activated in Autopilot mode without my intentional input, causing me to lose control and resulting in a serious crash. Prior to the collision, the vehicle's Autopilot system, engaged without my input and abruptly accelerated. I was seriously injured as a result. The vehicle, a brand-new 2024 Tesla Model Y, was in normal operating condition with no prior mechanical issues. I had not modified the vehicle in any way. Following the crash, Tesla provided data to attorneys regarding the incident which I believe to be inaccurate and inconsistent with my experience. I am requesting that NHTSA: 1. Open a formal investigation into this incident 2. Investigate the accuracy and completeness of data Tesla provides following Autopilot-related crashes 3. Preserve my complaint as part of any ongoing investigation into Tesla Autopilot/FSD systems Was I injured? YES Number of injuries: 2 Were there fatalities: NO Was there a police report? YES INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
