Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)Both rear tires (original tires) on the vehicle had broken belts at about the same time. My understanding is that broken belts can lead to tire failure which can pose a significant safety risk. Our local Tesla dealer diagnosed the problem, and the tires have been sent to the tire manufacturer for their own inspection. There were no warnings. Tire size: 275/45 R20.
I noticed a metal-sounding noise while driving that got louder when running over the road markers. After careful observation and visual inspection, I saw the left rear tire slowly deflating. I also noticed that the tread on the rear tires is excessively uneven. The outer thread measured 7/32nds while the inner tire was down to the steel belt. The problem could have caused a safety risk to me, and others had it happened on the freeway.
I had my car for almost 12 months and have drive ~11000 miles. In the past one month, I started experiencing a violent shudder/vibration during initial acceleration between ~30-40mph. Tesla service has refused to act upon this issue saying they don't have a fix for this issue. They do have a service bulletin SB-21-39-001 issued for this problem but mentioned that this is not a permanent fix for this issue. Finally, nothing was done to address the issue.
OUR TESLA MODEL X 2020 HAS ONLY 6300 MILES. AFTER NOTICING THAT ONE OF THE REAR TIRES WAS FLAT, I REALIZED THAT THE TWO REAR TIRES WERE EXTREMELY WORN ON THE INNER RIM, EVEN EXPOSING THE STEEL BELT ON BOTH.
