A few days ago, according to a Phoenix.com Auto report, Ms. Lin, the owner of a Tesla Model 3 in Nanjing, Jiangsu, said that on March 14 this year, she had a car crash in her garage. Her arm was bruised and her joints were bruised. Ms. Lin said that thanks to driving at a low speed, the consequences were not too serious, but she was severely traumatized.
“I was walking at a low speed (about 10-20km/h) with the brakes. As you can see from the video, the brake lights are basically on. Tesla’s own kinetic energy recovery function should have decelerated to a stop when the accelerator was released. . But I found that the speed did not drop or even increased without stepping on the accelerator. Later, I stepped on the brakes many times, but the car was out of control. Without daring to judge the condition of the car on the right, I hit the wall. , the airbag deploys.”
Ms. Lin was very puzzled. Why does the Model 3 not show any signs of deceleration or even accelerate when the speed is not fast, the braking distance is long enough, and she has stepped on the brakes many times?
After the accident, Ms. Lin wanted to find out the reason and communicated with Tesla several times. Tesla’s official reply was: Ms. Lin’s speed was too fast, and the epoxy floor paint caused the garage floor to be too slippery.
Ms. Lin only stepped on the brakes at the last second before the collision. The above is the reason why the vehicle failed to stop successfully. He also said that before the collision, the double flashing lights or the marker lights were on.
Until Ms. Lin took out the driving recorder and other videos to prove it, Tesla changed her mind and said, “There were two brakes.” Tesla staff also said: Ms. Lin’s Model 3 pressed the brake pedal for the last time at a speed of 30.0 4K m/h. After 0.2 seconds of pressing the brake pedal, the brake master cylinder pressure reached 138.9 bar.
Ms. Lin also stepped on the brakes 0.1 seconds before the collision. According to the results of Tesla’s data analysis, the braking system of Ms. Lin’s car did not lose control before the collision. Ms. Lin asked Tesla for complete data about the accident, or to perform a simulation test to restore the accident scene. Tesla did not agree to these two requests.
Advocacy requires detailed data concerning the occurrence of the accident. In this regard, Tesla staff made it clear that background data will not be provided because there is no precedent. At present, the voice of Ms. Lin, the owner of the accident, is: “I will not touch Tesla again.”
Ms. Lin said, “My family doesn’t let me buy a Tesla, but I don’t listen to it, I think it’s fashionable. The most powerful thing about Tesla is that it makes fans think that people who defend their rights are insane until they have an accident. I couldn’t understand it before. Ms. Zhang, I think she has a problem with the trouble. Now think about it, as long as they can communicate normally, who would choose to defend their rights like that? I will not persuade others not to buy Tesla, and I won’t believe it if I don’t spread it on myself. .”
