Probably easier to replicate on beast or standard accleration as it's acceleration dependant. Definitely not WOT but it happens under acceleration for sure. Suspension height doesn't matter.
Also not really speed bumps. More like uneven pavement or a small pothole or uneven service.
No rattle. It's like a small bump or imperfection becomes a much larger bump. Almost like a small curb. Under acceleration only. Not during cruising. I don't have a rattling noise at all it's just very jarring.
To put this issue to rest if anyone in New Jersey with the beast claims they don’t have this issue please let me know and I will meet up with you to compare. I’m in Jackson, New Jersey, but will drive an hour to prove this out.
I have the same thing on my beast. Outlined by Kyle @ OOS. It's "normal" for beasts according to the service center. Under any acceleration, in any drive mode/height, the front suspension is locked and makes all bumps feel like crashes. All have it. Any that say they don't just live with it.
Are you using a weight distribution hitch? I haven't seen that question yet but I would imagine that changes everything? Or maybe not? Can someone offer an explanation on how that might change the EE video analysis?
And I love EE but they don't like Elon/Tesla.
I hope that is true, because than they can fix mine which I picked up in June of 2024. Why wouldn't they fix Kyle's from OOS if it wasn't all of them? I truly hope they can fix it.
Service appointment 4/16 for that and lightbar. I'll let you know.

Kyle from OOS talks about it in the last 3 videos if you need a more detailed analysis.
Under acceleration your front suspension isn't overly stiff and jolting? Did you watch the latest Out of Spec video? Don't watch the whole thing. I believe he talks about the issue in his last 3 videos. I have the exact same issue as him and it seems all beasts have that. If yours doesn't I'd be...
All beasts suffer from a traction/suspension issue in the front motor. Out of Spec talks about this and I've had a thread open for discussion here on the topic. Its Beasts only and somewhat annoying. Tesla has to fix it but I wouldn't give up my beast because of it.
I can't speak for the other truck options. I had a 2015 F150 lightning and the planned obsolescence of the American car manufacturers turned me off from their brand, so I'll never by a Chevy, Ford, or GM while Tesla and Rivian exist.
Owned and drove an R1T for 2 years as my daily driver putting...
The R1 T will have more features, but cost more money. And no other truck on the market will have Tesla software and FSD. If those things don’t matter to you then you’re better off buying a lightning or any other electric truck.
Coming up on a year and they sent me an email to let me know I can finally set an appointment to have the lightbar installed. Scheduled for next week. I'm pumped.
If your truck is braking at the last minute or tailgating while on FSD, then I would open a ticket because something is wrong with your truck. 99% of my driving is FSD at 16k miles. Neither is an issue for me.
I’m having some issues post update. At first my GPS position was off. Now it’s not tracking me at all and looks like connectivity isn’t working. Tried multiple reboots and a sleep cycle. Still having issues. FSD won’t work either.
