I just got my Tesla less then 2 weeks ago. Switched to Tesla Insurance 1 week ago. Out of 7 days of having Telsa insurance I have only driven 4 days and have a safety score of 52.
Day 1 was great, only drove 3 miles but got a score of 100. I was happy to see I had such a good score. But it has gone downhill from there. Next day I drove 3 miles and had an aggressive turn, assumed it was because I took a legal U-turn too fast and figured ok I will watch out for that in the future.
It has gotten worse from there. I finally had some time over the weekend to go for a short drive. 34 miles actually. I was using Autopilot and AutoSteer (no FSD). My score was 67 and I was getting alerts for every category. Then yesterday, I drove 20 miles with a score of 12. Didn't put on Autopilot or anything, just me driving. I kept having FCW warnings for cars that were in different lanes or a few car lengths ahead of me as well as hard breaking, unsafe following and Aggressive turning. (screenshots attached). I called Tesla insurance and the person said that since I said I was driving safely and had SO many alerts, there may be an issue with my Senors, she pointed me to Service to have it looked at.
My first service appointment is not for 6 weeks. I added the data on my issues with erroneous alerts to my appt. Today, I called Tesla Insurance back to make sure that I dont have issues with my rates until after they can look at the car and fix any issues. The person said, they have no way to dispute Safety scores and if Service finds an issue, they may be able to have my insurance adjusted. He indicated, I may be better off cancelling my Telsa Insurance until the issue is fixed.
I am a very good driver and thought Tesla Insurance would be great for me, with a starting score of 90, I was already saving $450 from what my current Insurance company was going to charge.
Anyone have any advice? Am I doing something wrong with my driving, or settings?
