Tesla brand vehicles have already been available to the public for some time, but apparently sufficient tests of their operation have not yet been carried out because there are already several faults that the owners of one of these vehicles have reported.
Above all, errors have been evidenced in the autopilot navigation system, because the system does not correctly interpret the instructions programmed by the driver, which caused the company to review 54,000 of its vehicles. Recently, a video surfaced with another worrying glitch.
It’s also not the first time someone has reported their Tesla starting to catch fire for no apparent reason. In Vancouver, Canada, a driver on his way to a golf course panicked when his car suddenly turned off, he locked the doors, and he began to see thick, black smoke billowing from the front end.
It is a model Y, which he only bought six months ago, so he considers that there should be no reason for that to happen, but that it must be a manufacturing problem.
The alarm grew when the man saw how fire came out of the vehicle, so as he could, he managed to break one of the windows and escaped there. Outside, he called the fire department to douse the flames.
We can imagine the moments of anguish that this man experienced, because the system blocked the doors and he could not get out. This is something that Tesla must review in detail because it is not a simple failure, but rather puts the lives of drivers at risk.
Fortunately, this man did not give in to fear and managed to escape in time. According to the driver, the system only marked “error, error, error” and could no longer open the doors, but we will have to wait for an investigation to find out what happened and see Tesla’s response to this failure.
These vehicles were launched as a new generation of vehicles with the most advanced technology, but in the face of so many failures, it seems that they were not yet ready to enter the market, since their objective should be to improve the lives of drivers, not end it. .
