2023 Tesla Model X problems, complaints & recalls

Typical Falling

NHTSA has received 192 owner complaints about the 2023 Tesla Model X, or 52.3 per year on the road — a typical number of complaints for a vehicle of its age (complaint index 1.24, where 1.00 is the average of all tracked vehicles). Among the 92 model-year 2023 vehicles we track, it ranks #68 for fewest complaints per year. Against other Tesla models its rate is 21% lower; against other Electric vehicles it is 7% lower.

Counts are normalized by time on the road, not by sales volume: a popular model generates more reports than a rare one, and complaints are not verified individually. How we count

Complaints filed between 2023-01-06 and 2026-08-13. Median delay from incident to filing: 3 days.

Analysis

The previous model year (2022) drew 26.7 complaints per year, fewer than this one. The following model year (2024) drew 9.7 per year, fewer than this one. In its first two years on the road the 2023 model collected 146 complaints, 76% higher than the average vehicle of the same model year.

The most common problem area is Interior & equipment (35.9% of complaints), followed by Steering (22.9%) and Electrical (12.5%). Interior & equipment complaints are 4.0 times as common here as across all tracked vehicles. Within Interior & equipment reports, owners most often mention “horn”, “button”, “center”, “steering wheel” and “small”. 19 reports (9.9%) describe a crash or fire; owners mention 10 injuries and 0 deaths.

Half of the reported incidents happened within 16 months of the model year's start; the busiest period was the second year (54% of incidents). In the last 12 months 25 new complaints were filed, versus 44 in the 12 months before — the pace is falling.

NHTSA lists 17 safety recalls for this model year. 53% of the complaints fall in component areas that a recall addresses. 10 NHTSA defect investigations cover this model year; the most recent is “FSD Collisions in Reduced Roadway Visibility Conditions” (opened 2026-03-18, still open).

The FSD Beta system may allow the vehicle to act unsafe around intersections, such as traveling straight through an intersection while in a turn-only lane, entering a stop sign-controlled intersection without coming to a complete stop, or proceeding into an intersection during a steady yellow traffic signal without due caution. In addition, the system may respond insufficiently to changes in posted speed limits or not adequately account for the driver's adjustment of the vehicle's speed to exceed posted speed limits.

Risk: FSD Beta software that allows a vehicle to exceed speed limits or travel through intersections in an unlawful or unpredictable manner increases the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Tesla will release an over-the-air (OTA) software update, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 15, 2023. Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752. Tesla's number for this recall is SB-23-00-001.
