I own a 2023 Tesla Model X and I am reporting a steering-related safety concern.  When making hard left turns, the steering wheel/front end shakes or shudders and makes a LOUD sounds. This does not feel or sound normal and appears to be related to the steering or front suspension system. The issue happens during low-speed turning/maneuvering when the wheel is turned sharply to the left.  I contacted Tesla Service regarding the issue. Tesla advised that this is a known issue and that there is currently no available fix. Despite acknowledging that it is a known issue with no repair available, Tesla still wants to charge me a diagnostic fee.  I am concerned because this involves the steering system, and I do not believe a vehicle should have steering shake or shuddering during normal turning, especially on a 2023 vehicle. Since Tesla has stated this is a known issue but has no fix, I am requesting that NHTSA review this as a potential safety defect affecting the 2023 Tesla Model X.  The issue has not been repaired because Tesla stated there is no fix available at this time.

TESLA MODEL X 2023 SUSPENSION

I was using FSD any driving on  XXX between [XXX] and [XXX]. Suddenly the car put on the 4 way flashers, slowed down and started to pull to the side of the road. There was no shoulder so the car would have stopped in the driving lane. I immediately turned the wheel back into the center of the lane and stepped on the accelerator to avoid being rear ended. Fortunately the traffic was light. There was no indication that the FSD sensed inattentiveness. I was able to continue driving using FSD. This happened twice on my way to Huntersville on XXX and once on the return trip on XXX. I filed a report with Tesla and have an appointment for next week.

TESLA MODEL X 2023 LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST

Every time I use FSD in my Tesla, and disengage it by steering or the brake pedal, I am FORCED to deal with a popup selection window that takes over my control interface and WILL NOT go away unless I divert attention from a critical issue such as a crash or collision that will be avoided by me taking over control. This popup MUST be disabled ASAP. It steals vital time and attention from actually driving the vehicle and can appear many times per trip. This forced feedback popup is extremely dangerous to the safe operation of the vehicle. This popup must be looked into and Tesla forced to find another way.

A car was backing up and almost hit my front bumper. The Tesla model X horn isnât in the middle of the steering wheel on top of the airbag like every other car I have driven. There is a button (one of 7) on the steering wheel for the horn. Unsafe.
