Narrative

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.
