Driver assist on other Model Y years
Report counts are for each model year on its own, so a newer car has had less time to collect them. Model years with too few reports of it for a sheet: 2025.
What this problem usually is
These reports come from drivers whose assistance systems did something they didn't ask for. Adaptive cruise switches itself off, or brakes for a car that isn't there. Lane keeping tugs the wheel toward the line, or a "sensor blocked" message appears on a clear day. Because both systems can brake or steer, owners tend to file them as safety complaints, and NHTSA files them under speed control, lane departure or forward collision.
What got replaced
Owners who name the part that was replaced mention the camera (31 reports) and the software (25 reports).

What owners wrote
“They advertise it as a computer failure. The cruise control doesn't work, none of the cameras displays, causing me to hit the lawnmower in my garage. Other functions as navigation, range prediction, and automatic light/dark display switching don't work either.”

“No cams working, no reverse cam, no 360 view, no auto wipers, no regular cruise, no FSD, no ASS or dumb summoning, no emergency braking, no park assist and for some reason no navigation”

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 5 of 62 reports involved a crash and 8 people were hurt. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
