2020 Tesla MODEL 3 - SUSPENSION Failure Complaint (#b0c30a)

2020 Tesla MODEL 3

• Date of Incident: Apr-20, 2024
• Date complaint filed: Apr-20, 2024
• Failed components: SUSPENSION

I am writing to express my concern regarding the recurring issue with the control arms and sway bar in the 2020 tesla model 3. It has come to my attention that tesla acknowledges this issue, which manifests as creaking sounds during various driving conditions such as climbing into the car, traveling at low speeds, and navigating over speed bumps or uneven terrain. What's particularly troubling is that when i brought my car into them tesla acknowledged that they are aware of the prevalence of this issue across many of their vehicles, yet they continue to charge consumers for repairs, even if their vehicle is not included in the recalled vins. This policy unfairly burdens consumers who experience the same issue but are denied coverage under the recall. I urge the nhtsa to investigate this matter thoroughly to ensure consumer protection and fairness in addressing safety concerns in tesla vehicles. It's essential that manufacturers uphold their responsibility to rectify known issues without imposing undue financial burdens on consumers.
