There is a real investigation: NHTSA opened a preliminary evaluation in October 2025 covering roughly 2.9 million Teslas after dozens of reports that FSD ran red lights, crossed into oncoming lanes or committed other violations, including some intersection crashes with injuries. By early 2026 the agency had upgraded its review. Those are legitimate concerns worth tracking. But a preliminary evaluation is a routine information-gathering step, not a finding of a defect or a recall — NHTSA opens many that close without action. The reported violations number in the dozens against billions of FSD miles driven, and Tesla ships frequent over-the-air updates targeting exactly these edge cases. The honest position: real edge-case failures exist and the probe is justified, but "FSD runs red lights" as a blanket description of normal operation is not supported by the overall record.
