Complaint filed against carmaker in deadly Pleasanton crash 

Why would you allow your friend to borrow a car with these issues?

Why would you loan your car to a buddy to drive his whole family around if you knew the steering was glitching out?

I'm assuming that co-worker and the family weren't actually that close i.e. an actual friend wouldn't lend a faulty car to another friend, especially one with steering problems for f***'s sake.. yikes..

I dont trust on cars with 90% computer taking control of all driving

Dont drive a noname car Vinfast if you want keep your family’s life. I wonder why NHTSA allowed this car on road even they not passed crash test.

Why you even buy a car made by unknown manufacturer? specially a EV

My questions are: 1) Why were they driving with lane assist on? 2) Why were they not taking over control when the car was driving towards the tree? 3) Did they confuse lane assist with full self driving? 4) why did the co-worker hand over a car that he felt was unsafe and not familiar with the features of the car?

Family of two children inside of car speeding that fast?? Crash to a tree burst in flame... definitely something wrong with the car

what the heck is vinfast and what is it doing in US roads?

If anyone bought a Vinfast your IQ is not all there.

Vinfast 😅

why isnt the title called "Complaint filed against Vinfast in deadly Pleasanton crash" imagine this was a tesla.... pick and choose....

Vinfast- car not to drive Rather drive Fisker

How many more people have to die while this is being "investigated" ? 😡

dang. I'm holding onto my 2006 Sienna.

After the accident, the owner filed a complaint claiming that the car was veering to the right? It sounds like the owner just implicated themselves in this tragedy. Also EV fires reigniting is a common danger.

Why is Lane assist even necessary

Why would anybody buy a Vinfast car? They made that car within 2-3 years of starting the EV auto business...

why aren’t vietnamese cars on our roads if they have steering issues?

Do not buy these! We pulled them off the ship last year brand new. Brand new ship and company!!

$50m lawsuit is coming.

Person who loaned the car, liable ?

Why ? why would someone lend a car to someone knowing the car has problem!

the owner knows the car has a steering wheel problem that can be life-threatening, so why loan it to a friend? The owner didn't take it seriously, so it may not be that bad of a concern, so also the borrower wasn't serious.

Vinfast is made in Vietnam from parts made in China. The owner of the Vinfast was smart enough to let his friend test the reliability of the electric SUV. In life we have to make cruel decisions. His friend is dead but he is alive.

Made in Vietnam huh

I'll keep my 20 year old car.

Car name should be "Burnfast".

The car has 10 year warranty bumper to bumper . Why the owner did not bring the car in to fix it before letting his friend drive

Never heard of Vinfast.

any comment with the word "vinfast" get deleted ?

Moral of the story - avoid Vinfast and other upcoming Asian EV makers until they prove their quality over a few years.

Ccp car the worst

It's name should be changed to Dyfast. A very sad tragedy indeed 😢

Very sorry for the family. Anyone buying an EV from a new company in Vietnam should know better but I’m sure Gavin Newsom is very proud of his push for more unproven EV’s.

I bet he repented his decision to borrow in last second.

This is why i don't want lane assist or driverless. I don't want anything to glitch.

Why would you borrow a friend's car and trust it with your family?

Ah, Vinfast... mention that in the title.

Don't buy it

Lets wait and see what the full investigation determines rather than a bunch of people speculating on the comments here. If its a safety defect then they must fix it and compensate. If its something else lets wait and see. Even with adaptive cruise control and lane assist steering on, the driver must keep hands on steering wheel and eyes on road all the time. I dont know that street and lane markings there, but any car using autosteer (not just EV's but ICE cars too with that feature), use the car cameras to steer but if the lane marking are all skewed or not marked or overwritten by construction markings or lanes splicing towards forks ahead the systems cameras get unsure and rely on driver taking over. Not defending the car brand here but terrible accidents happen with every make regularly. Even teslas. but much more attention given to EV's that make national news for the relative much fewer times they are involved in bad accidents, whereas regular cars getting into them daily all over the country arent splashed onto the media.

From what I understand of Vinfast, they are like the Yugo of electric vehicles. With so many options from dedicated EV companies like Tesla or Lucid, combined with too many to think models from very established car companies like Ford, GM, Nissan, Audi, BMW, Volvo, etc. I would think that Vinfast would have gone out of business by now. It's not like their offerings are bargains even when compared to EV models from Hyundai or Kia! Sadly for the family, loved ones, and friends of these 4 who passed away, their lives were taken too soon showing that this car probably has some major issues that were never worked out before putting these on the road.

OMG..a Vietnamese car in the US? Now I'm scared..

The more I learn about modern vehicles the more I’m convinced to keep my 20 year old Toyota 4Runner.

AI GOES WRONG.

Rack and pinion 👍🏾 Drive by wire scares the crap outa me

Why would you loan or continue to knowingly drive a car that is not working correctly.

Vin Fart!!! DU MA! 😂😂😂

Why was the driver borrowing his friends car? Did he wreck his own car? More at 11

Spend the extra $$ and get a name brand car.

First time I am hearing about this car brand, is this only available in CA?

Living in America driving a Vietnam car ?

What in the world is a Vinfast car? And why the heck will you let your friend and his entire family to drive a faulty car?

never heard of vinfast

Autopsy report? Is there anything left but ashes?

No thank you- I Will Not Be Purchasing an ECV anytime soon. GFY

All parts from Vinfast making from China. You driving China’ car, your chance will get no warranty from no where.

Don’t bet your life with stupid fancy EV features.

their faux too they should read the review I have friend Vietnamese they told me "support Vn " I don't want to risk my life for a car that not approve by all tester

Never knew a company called Vinfast exists until this video

But Tesla's FSD is still good to go?

Vietnamese noodle company now making vehicles. This is why cheap Chinese and Vietnamese vehicles need to be carefully analyzed. Try to by American or at least European.

Phil Recht? Like car wrecked? Perfect name for his job title lol

Not even 2 years, now car brands is giving bad reputation and it’s not last in USA market very long.

Something is fishy here

Why would you even get a vinfast when there are so many better alternatives available.

Wait until the Chinese made BYD cars show up here.

Lane assist is defeated whenever the human intervenes. Whoever was driving caused the crash.

Did the brakes not work?

VINF**K 😟😞😥😢 I would like to express my condolences to the families of those who lost their lives.

Ambulance chasing 101....

Vietnamese

This is why you don't let the computer drive the car for you! You hear me Elon?

Speed kill reminded me of Paul Walker accident. 😔

Say no to electric cars

Vinfast? I blame biden for this

Vinfart

Vinfast is the worst car even worse than land Rover

The problem is not the manufacturer, the problem is SUVs in general. Brainwashing people into thinking they're faster than sedan, but are actually death traps. GG

Vinfast < Mullen

So it would just Steer to car decides to go, not steering where the Driver wants to go :D dude, that is part of the Autonomous vehicle feature, that is normal. If the Car wants to drive into a Tree, you have no say on that :D

The news media has got to poops, they should do a better job on title and news facts… 🎉

Where is John Biden?

Stop making and buying electric cars.

Gas car is better than EV

So I'm guessing we're in the part of the investigation commonly known as "It has to be someone else's fault so we can sue them". Do we know the driver wasn't distracted in some way? Even if there was problems with "lane assist" if your hands are on the wheel lane assist isn't going to out muscle you to move the car where you don't want it to go. Not to discredit a car problem did this, I mean it is easier to blame technology especially when it's made by a relatively unknown company, but watching people drive distracted driving is probably far more possible as a reason, maybe in conjunction with lane assist problems, I mean how many Tesla drivers have been seen letting the car drive itself?

EV are extremely safe and don't usually catch fire. President Biden stands behind EV even though he doesn't own one.

An ICE vehicle can also have fires but they don’t burn as ferociously and as fast like EV’s. EV’s from China like BYD have many videos on social media as well.

💐

Sounds like it's a mixture of their own bad decisions. Tsk tsk tsk.

We blame Everyone but NOT ourselves. SPEEDS Kills!!!!!!!!!

Blame the car for your incompetence in driving skills 👌 Natural selection 🤔

SUA

No seatbelts??

Who wants to buy vietnams car ? LOL

It was a sucide

Saving the environment with electric cars, by decreasing the population?

vinfast

speed is always a factor is crashes. Im sure they were speeding as most of you people do. slow down, its your life and others that needs your attention. sorry not sorry

Are there any White people left in the Bay Area?
