Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2019 X.
The 2019 Tesla X is a full‑size passenger car built on Tesla’s electric platform, powered exclusively by an electric drivetrain. While its all‑electric architecture delivers the expected zero‑emission performance, the model’s reliability record shows a modest 73 owner complaints for the year, with suspension issues emerging as the most frequent problem. Additionally, the vehicle was subject to six recalls, reflecting the ongoing refinement typical of early‑generation electric models. Positioned in the middle of the X’s reliability timeline, the 2019 iteration illustrates both the strengths of its electric powertrain and the areas where Tesla has focused subsequent improvements.

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.
Owner complaints about the 2019 Tesla X lead in one area — the suspension, 15 of 73 reports (21%), well ahead of the next concern. NHTSA has issued no recalls for this vehicle, so these are owner-reported concerns only. 10 of the reports describe a crash and 3 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the suspension pattern above. These are tallies of what owners actually reported to the federal government, not an editorial score — and higher-selling models naturally rack up more reports.
