    A little direction with a crash!

    Wasn't using fsd or auto pilot. Fully aware and engaged in my parking.

    A little direction with a crash!

    Nope. My daughter was in the car with me. Watched it all. Had a witness. It wasn't the accelerator. I didn't nail anything. I pulled my foot OFF the accelerator as I always do coming into this spot for the 50th time, and the hold didn't work. Then, when I put the brake on and even pumped the...

    Not a helpful or kind response. Everything in life has room for error. Even a Tesla.

    A little direction with a crash!

    That's not a fair statement. How do you know for sure? Were you there? It's ok to question everything like others have, but you can't say this with certainty. Everything in life has room for error, even Tesla. It's a computer, as we know computers fail once in a while. I love Tesla, I own two...

    A little direction with a crash!

    I would think they would gladly tell me what they think I did wrong. They rattled off how it wasn't the car's fault (only by stating how the braking works and that the diagnostic showed no unusual behaviour at all). They gave me no reasons why they thought I was at fault though. As for the...

    A little direction with a crash!

    Obviously, I have contacted a lawyer. I've spoken with three top lawyers from my city. Many of my friends are lawyers. I came here for a little direction from other drivers who might have had this happen. I wouldn't be here if I was getting answers or this didn't seem convoluted. That's all. I'm...

    A little direction with a crash!

    As for when I braked...once the hold failed (me taking the foot off the power and it not kicking in regen braking and slowing) I put on the brake right to the floor of car ( if the wrong pedal we would have been hurled through the building). That was about 1/2 way in the spot. It wouldn't brake...

    A little direction with a crash!

    Oh, no worries. I've wracked my brain about every scenario. I see what you are pointing out. Later in the scenario, I was pumping the brake to try and get it to engage. That could be what that is. I realize Tesla is impossible to go up against. I am just upset that they won't release the...

    A little direction with a crash!

    I understand that's the optics of this. I was only pressing the brake. It was very clearly pressed and held a couple of times. Not sure how I prove that, though. I think the report would show that, but they didn't mention that.

    I'm new here and can't seem to post the video!

    A little direction with a crash!

    Thank you. The car actually did not accelerate at all. It maintained the speed I came into the spot doing. The hold failed 1/2 way into the spot and then my foot was firmly on the brake, and it would not respond. As my passenger said it felt like a ride at Disneyland. Just a mind of its own...

    A little direction with a crash!

    Hello everyone. I have a 2019 Model X. I was self-driving. I was parking my vehicle, and the hold failed, then the brake wouldn't engage, and the car went through a business we were parking in front of. A video shows my brakes are clearly on the whole time, and there is no acceleration at all...
