Narrative

On December 23, 2025, my 2024 Tesla Cybertruck (Foundation Series) was operating with Full Self-Driving (FSD – Supervised) engaged. While FSD was active, the vehicle executed an unsafe driving trajectory. I attempted to intervene and regain control; however, the system did not disengage as expected and did not yield control appropriately to driver input. Despite driver intervention attempts, the vehicle continued along the unsafe trajectory, resulting in a loss of control and collision with roadside objects. There were no mechanical warnings or alerts prior to the incident. The issue appears related to system behavior, disengagement logic, and driver override response while FSD was active. The vehicle is currently preserved under a formal litigation hold. No inspection, teardown, or data access has occurred. Tesla has confirmed in writing that it does not modify, delete, or alter vehicle data it has received. I am submitting this complaint due to concerns regarding the safety behavior of Full Self-Driving (Supervised), including the system’s failure to disengage upon driver input and the human-machine interface governing control authority.
