The giant automaker sent a new report to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), announcing dozens of new crashes. 

Back in June, Tesla topped the list of most crashes involving ADAS (advanced driver-assist) features. 

Because of this, Tesla's FSD (Full Self-Driving) and Autopilot features have been greatly criticized by many people. 

This problem could continue since the automaker confirms more and more crashes.

These accidents happened while the drivers were using Tesla's ADAS features. However, the automaker didn't clarify if it was the FSD or Autopilot. 

Tesla only provided a few details regarding the accidents. These include EV models, which as the Tesla Model 3. 

Aside from this, the carmaker also said that the ADAS features were engaged when the crashes happened. 

Meanwhile, major information, such as the operating entity, ADAS/ADS version, mileage, etc., was left blank. 

As of writing, Tesla didn't explain why it didn't disclose these details. But, in one section, the automaker said that the information was redacted because it may contain confidential business information.
