Tesla Model Y Crash Lawsuit | Augusta Georgia News

A Virginia woman is suing Tesla for $10 million after a terrifying crash during a test drive of her Model Y, claiming the car surged forward in “Insane” acceleration mode without her knowledge — a setting she says she never activated. The incident occurred when she was driving solo after being told the car behaved like a gas vehicle, and despite asking for a salesperson to accompany her. She hit the gas at a red light, the car allegedly lurched forward with extreme speed, and she crashed into a hair salon, suffering serious injuries. The lawsuit names Tesla and two dealership employees, accusing them of negligence and misrepresentation — while Tesla has yet to comment.
