WashPo reports a huge spike of federal complaints from Tesla owners starting in Oct 2021, well into the Vision-only Tesla technology
These are some pretty respectable sources. Federal complaints are public.
> “We primarily drove the car on two-lane highways, which is where the issues would show themselves consistently,” he said in an email. “Although my 2017 Model X has phantom braked before, it is very rare, the vision-based system released May 2021 is night and day. We were seeing this behavior every day.”
So we have Electrek, Washington Post, and the official NHTSA Federal registry in agreement over these phantom braking events spiking in October / November timeframe of 2021. I don't think this is an issue you can brush off with anecdotal evidence or anti-website kind of logic.
That’s totally fair. I’m not pretending it isn’t a problem. Phantom braking is scary as hell when you’re on the highway. I misread your comment on the date and think that’s the thing you really focused on, when I didn’t. You’re right. This is a serious problem.
