The following sound is something I just recorded minutes ago in my garage.
This is the sound my classic 2013 Model S makes whenever I press my foot on the brake pedal. Even to start the car. In fact, this recording does the sound justice.... for the past few months the sound has been worse, but this a good enough recording to give you an idea.
Note that even while out on the road, when I come to a stop sign or have to stop at a red light, AS LONG AS I AM PRESSING BRAKE PEDAL, this sound happens. It is LOUD. Other drivers can hear it. It makes my car sound like some rickety old radiator or something.
I don't know any other Tesla owners who report their car making this awful sound WHENEVER THEY PRESS THE BRAKE. I have had the brake vacuum pump replaced once already this year to no avail -- the sound was just as worse after as it was before.
You listen, you decide. What's your verdict?
