Not a native English speaker/writer, clearly.

yes, it's really dangerous. I was shocked

They're making fun of you for using the wrong spelling of brake/break. I guess pedants don't have anything better to do.

No, in this case I think it’s fair to ask for clarification, since the whole point of the article is that things are suddenly breaking on Teslas.

As someone who does not own a Tesla, but drives in a country where 25% of all new cars sold are now Model 3 or Model Y, we can all confirm this and it is now common wisdom to keep good distance if we are driving behind these vehicles. Beta testing in prod is great /s.
