The NHTSA continues to monitor Tesla closely, initiating new recalls and investigations into serious safety-related complaints regarding the Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (FSD) systems. Concerns about "phantom braking" and unexpected acceleration have been highlighted in consumer reports, with the agency receiving an average of 20 complaints per month since the FSD launch. Despite software updates that have mitigated some braking issues, unresolved glitches remain prevalent. The nomination of Jonathan Morrison as NHTSA administrator raises further queries about handling conflicts regarding Tesla's owner, Elon Musk, as investigations proceed.
The NHTSA has shown no signs of backing down, overseeing three new recalls of Tesla vehicles since Trump took office, most recently ordering 46,000 Cybertrucks to be checked after discovering an exterior panel was prone to falling off because of faulty glue.
While multiple Tesla tech updates in the past two years have reduced complaints about braking glitches, other software issues persist.
