Poor Tesla

New York (CNN Business)More than 100 Teslas have been involved in accidents because they accelerated unintentionally, according to a complaint filed with federal safety regulators.

The complaint, filed on December 19 but posted Friday, says the problem happened to 127 different cars across all three Tesla models currently for sale: the Model S, Model X and the Model 3. The unintended acceleration problem caused 110 accidents, and 52 people were injured as a result, according to the complaint.

This sounds familiar. Didn’t Audi or Toyota go through this issue years ago?

Toyota . They spent millions in settlements just to find out they did because they sold cars to idiots. Ended up all were floormats moving out of place

The factory is down the road from me. He owns a very regarded Vette racing team.

First thing I do when I buy a car. Gotta be prepared for the elements.

Got my parents converted too.

They buy a new Toyota and I order a new set of weathertechs soon as the deal is signed.

They have a store front in one of their buildings in Bolingbrook. It’s worth a stop. The owner rotates his motorcycle and auto collection in there.
