Tesla owners in Australia join class action for phantom braking, Autopilot issues affecting Model 3, Model Y

A category motion lawsuit in Australia initiated against Tesla in February this 12 months is gaining momentum as around 10,000 Tesla owners within the country have registered interest within the lawsuit for claimed issues including phantom braking, battery issues and misleading Autopilot claims, reported ABC News.

The category motion lawsuit alleges that Tesla Model 3 and Model Y vehicles “will be apt to autonomous engage Automatic Emergency Braking [Autonomous Emergency Braking, or AEB] abruptly in inappropriate circumstances, resulting in a risk of collisions,” Drive quoted law firm JGA Sadler as saying.

An owner of a Model 3 allegedly experienced sudden braking on the highway, which resulted in a truck nearly colliding into the rear of the Tesla, and the unintended braking has occurred to this vehicle owner on quite a few occasions, in response to the ABC News report.

“The problems which were reported to us are that vehicles might be driving along on the highway at 100 km/h or 110 km/h and impulsively the brakes are applied suddenly and without reason. We’ve had many reports of people that registered for this class motion, telling us that they’ve been driving with their hands on the vehicle, fully alert, and these issues have occurred nonetheless,” class motion lawyer Rebecca Jancauskas told ABC News.

Along with the phantom braking issue, the category motion lawsuit also looks to handle battery range figures which have allegedly not come near the advertised range figures, the report added.

Last month, Tesla demonstrated its Full Self Driving (FSD) driving assistance suite in Melbourne, showing the feature’s ability to navigate the vehicle around traffic encountered on its journey, including changing lanes to get around stationary vehicles, crossing a junction, and perform a hook turn, which is to show right across traffic from the far left lane (in Melbourne, that is to unencumber space for the movement of trams).

The American EV maker announced last September that its Full Self Driving assistance suite can be released in right-hand-drive markets from late in the primary quarter, or early within the second quarter of this 12 months, following its release in Europe and China in Q1.
