There are 2 owner-reported tires & wheels complaints for the 2019 Tesla Model Xin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
Tire inner wear which is due to bad design, it is hard to notice but blows up tire randomly, which is deadly while on highway. Its known issue specially with pre-refresh models, there should be at-least a recall to rectify toe/camber issue in alignment, proactively. almost every single model x owner is facing same issue.
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to you to emphasize and provide additional details regarding the critical safety issue concerning the Tesla Model X vehicles. My personal experience underscores the severity of this problem: I have had to replace over 8 tires in 3 years due to accelerated inner wall wear. This specific wear pattern is a direct result of improper camber alignment, an issue that Tesla has continuously refused to rectify. This problem is not isolated to my vehicle alone. A growing number of Tesla Model X and Model S owners have reported similar experiences, indicating a widespread and systemic issue. The accelerated inner wall tire wear poses significant safety risks, as it can lead to unexpected and dangerous tire failures on the road, which has happened to me. Very dangerous. Despite the clear evidence and numerous complaints from Tesla owners, Tesla has consistently declined to address this issue adequately. It appears that the company’s reluctance is rooted in the fact that proper repair or recall to fix the camber alignment is not cost-effective from their perspective. However, this cost-cutting measure is putting drivers and passengers at risk. Given the scale and gravity of this issue, I urge the National Highway Safety Institute to take immediate action. It is essential to investigate these recurring problems with both the Tesla Model X and Model S models. The safety of Tesla drivers, passengers, and the general public is at stake, and a thorough investigation could compel Tesla to take the necessary corrective actions. Thank you for your attention to this urgent safety matter. I trust that the National Highway Safety Institute will act promptly to ensure automotive safety and hold manufacturers accountable for their vehicles’ reliability and safety. There have been 4 incidents of this happening with my car. Just putting one date below.
