What owners wrote
While driving on the freeway the autopilot kept turning on, I would immediately turn the autopilot off. The autopilot came on and turned my steering wheel to the left into the highway barrier, thus causing me to take a corrective action. The weather on the freeway way wet and traffic was moderate. The monitor displayed autopilot, which I turned off many during my trip as I am not comfortable with autopilot . I have an insurance claim as there was extensive damage to my car.
Here is another model y in the junkyard. [link removed] the back wheel has fallen off. All the monkey metal suspension giblets are stretched and snapped. One whompy wheel can really spoil your day. Would it be too much trouble for you to issue a compulsory recall? Thanks keef
