It has achieved great fame because it is safer and more environmentally friendly, but it has caused serious damage to the health of its owners. What is hidden behind the electric cars that were produced by the technological revolution?
There have been several reports of electric car drivers suffering from motion sickness, dizziness, and nausea from the car's braking and acceleration systems.
According to AutoPacific's president and chief analyst, Ed Kim, Tesla is accused of causing motion sickness due to the braking and acceleration system, as the electric car's pedals mimic the brake pedal by allowing the car to slow down or stop by simply removing the foot from the pedal.
Kim added that this eliminates the need to switch between the brake and accelerator, which means there is less wear on the brake system, but it also means that the car will rock forward or backward depending on how quickly you press down or lift your foot off the pedal.
A former Tesla owner, residing in Georgia, claimed that she suffered from nosebleeds, hair loss, and “debilitating” body pain while driving the car, which she bought in 2021, and although she was not sure that driving the car was the cause of her strange symptoms, However, she said that the symptoms disappeared after selling the car.
Tesla car owners were forced to replace some models because the air conditioning systems were susceptible to mold, which could cause asthma-like symptoms.
