Description of the problem | Here is a badly smashed model y in the junkyard. Https://www. Iaai. Com/vehicledetails/39229111? Tenant=us&rownumber=21 it is certain that occupants would have been killed or injured. Bearing in mind the numerous model y cars that have been reported to have suspensions snap off for no good reason there is a high probability that this crash was caused by a suspension failure. The broken ball joints, protruding drive shaft and detached wheel point towards this crash being caused by a whompy wheel. Please investigate the circumstances of this crash and obtain data from the black box. Thank you. Keef |
