So I have had 2 phantom braking incidents with my new Tesla. The first one was within 10 minutes of picking up the car, which then caused me to not want to use it again, but then I did, and I got another one yesterday.
I don't have video from the first one, but here are the cameras from the second incident. It's pretty hard to tell when the braking occurred because after the first one, I am now keep my foot close to the accelerator to override the stupid (aka phantom) braking. The braking was hard enough to throw my wife forward in her seat belt. Wish there was cabin audio because then I would have a clear marker of where it occurred in the video.
Here's the video:
There's nothing around the car, but the contrast of the forward facing camera changes (around the 3 second mark) dramatically, and I am wondering if that has something to do with the braking.
None of the other cameras had a contrast change.
Does anyone else have dashcam video of their phantom braking to see if this contrast change is a clue?
