American safety authority is concerned about some elements of the Model S. Important parts, of course.

A word in advance, so that you have your pitchfork and torch and quiet in the barn, you can leave. It comes to a possible defect by the NHTSA is being investigated. There is therefore no question of a defect that actually is appointed. It is merely examined.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has stated that the authority is investigating a possible problem with the suspension of the Tesla Model S. it would Also be the brand customers by means of agreements have requested to not have too many from the school to blows over the possible faulting in the direction of the authorities. Seems to us unlikely, but Tesla already responded:

Tesla has never and would never ask a customer to sign a document to prevent them from talking to NHTSA or any other government agency. That is preposterous.

Meanwhile, calls on the NHTSA, owners of a Model S to report. The authority has not yet announced what exactly the hand would be with the suspension of the EV. Fortunately, we know more thanks to a concerned owner that something remarkable was going through.

Peter Cordaro, an American owner of a Model S 2013, drove on a bumpy road, then he has a strange noise heard. Hereinafter pulled the wheel to the left. Research has found that the suspension left it had gone, but also the right-hand side expression, after inspection, to be replaced. At that time, had the car for about 120,000 km driven. Cordaro’s car, incidentally, is neatly fixed and he is not going to switch to a different brand.

However, Tesla with Cordaro a so-called “goodwill agreement” to closed, but on the content thereof, he may continue to say anything. According to Tesla this agreement, however, has nothing to do with notifications in the direction of authorities, although it remains a remarkable story that undoubtedly will be pursued.
