'Full Self-Driving' Teslas Keep Slamming Into Curbs | Owners trying out FSD for the first time are finding damage after their cars kiss the curb while turning.


Tesla owners trialing out their free month of Full Self-Driving are posting photos and videos online of their cars driving over or into curbs.

Over the last few weeks, posts have popped up on Reddit, X, and YouTube showing wheel and tire damage due to cars on FSD making contact with curbs after taking turns a little too closely. What many people don't realize about FSD, or Tesla Autopilot in general, is that it can take a good amount of user-applied torque to convince the car to relinquish control over to the driver. So even if a driver begins to recognize that the vehicle is turning slightly close to a curb, the time it takes to react and regain control might not be enough to avoid the hop.
