I had a Hard Braking event just after a right on red when the vehicle was accelerating fast on FSD. I received a text and wanted to pull over to check it, so I touched the brake to turn off FSD and let regen slow me to a stop, which it did. I did not have my foot on the brake as it stopped. The...

It has to work, if for nothing more than to advertise Tesla's S3XY ASS

Tesla is being sued over their arbitrary collision warnings and use of telematics in the safety score in ways that do not promote safe driving. I got them from parked cars as I road by. It has been filed in California. I am still looking over the lawsuit, but it is a Class Action.

I am in the same boat. Just received update 2023.38.9 and drove without issue to a friend's house. When leaving the GPS is stuck there. I tried rebooting and power off/on (from screen) but no success. No FSD or cruise control. In service mode it showed GNSS receiving 0 satellites and after...

Yes, this just happened to me yesterday with my 2023 Model Y. GPS freeze. I rebooted several times and powered off and on with no success. I have an appointment scheduled. It worked fine until the moment it stopped.

I get them from parked vehicles that are parked in my driveway when I pull up to park. Check your state's laws regarding use of Telematics. There is usually an appeal process required. I bought a dashcam to document everything because the Tesla Dashcam retains a short time and you dont always...

If you use Tesla insurance, document everything because they state what they claim the ding is for in general terms and the time to the minute, but refuse any provide further information. Tesla should save the video, location, details of "ding" and exact time to the second, but they will not. I...

I keep getting collision warnings from my own parked motorhome which is in my driveway as I pull up. It is nuts. I am documenting with a separate dash camera since the Tesla dashcam does not save more than an hour, regardless of storage available, and most events you dont know about until you...

Get a dashcam to record - don't trust Tesla Dashcam. I have been steadily documenting these crazy alerts and false telematic events. Consumer Reports did a video about the Hard Braking telematic and how it can cause accidents by discouraging braking to avoid an accident: My latest safety...

Yes, it just finished downloading and FSDbeta is now active in my HW4 Model Y. I took a spin though my community and as I was manually parking in my driveway I got a Safety Score ding for late night driving and for a "collision warning" from a neighbors parked van in their driveway.

It could be a bug or just engineers stretched thin on all of the versions, new products and the mythical V.12 FSD Holy Grail.. no doubt delayed due to the conversion of processor clock cycles to the European and African Swallow wing speed velocity..

I went with subscription as well. When competition is higher, I suspect Tesla will lower or drop fee for FSD. In any event, it would be 75 months to equal $15000..

Yes, I agree. Erring on the side of caution is always preferred, so keeping the circuit breaker low is best. Unless people commute more than 200 miles per day, charging on a 24 Amp WC setting would easily charge overnight. It isn't worth the extra cost of upgrading. Cheap Chinese generic outlets...

A further point is that you dont even see that screen until the vehicle is purchased. Prior to purchase all we have are what senior people in the company say. At CVPR 2023 (link) Elluswamy said: - The speaker, Ashok Elluswamy, is lead member of the autopilot team at Tesla. - He presents their...

Showing how you are incorrect proves your point? That takes some mental gymnastics to work out. You made allegations and I addressed them point by point. Safety is never mitigation. It should always be a layered approach. Pre-dating the charger install, I also use smoke detectors that are...

1) I shared my install - I did not recommend anyone to do anything. 2) An electrician with 65 years of experience helped set it up. 3) Extension cord enclosed in a wall is a code violation, but I used burial grade cord that is open on both sides, only passing through in a conduit, which is ok...

Tesla

Confirm that the dryer circuit is to code as the 10/30R outlet is a 30AMP max output, so that should be the circuit breaker size. It will overheat if the circuit breaker were not sized properly. I stressed that the wall charger to be set to 30/24AMP setting to ensure too much current is not...

A few comments: 1) The 30AMP circuit is derated to 24AMPS as a 20% safety margin. This is an industry standard for safety. Safety standards are paid for dearly with blood - don't violate them. 2) Don't use the dryer at the same time you charge. If charging late at night, this should not be an...

I wanted the wall charger but the circuit breaker was too far and hard to reach, but a dryer outlet was on the other side of the wall. 1) TURN OFF BREAKER to dryer outlet. I then used the green splitter to share the outlet. 2) I bought an extension cord and cut off the female connector - I...

This confusion is the problem. People should not have to do research or be confused about FSD or FSDbeta or whatever. When Elon Musk says FSD is available for all cars and Ashok Elluswamy, Tesla's Director of Autopilot software who recently gave a talk at CVPR says all cars purchased today can...

While Autosteering Autopilot was engaged, my Safety Score recorded an "Aggressive Turning" and later "Hard Braking" as I was stopping to put the car in Park in the 3 minute "trip" to change parking spaces. I took snapshots.. it is totally ridiculous!

My point was that the owners manual says "if equipped" on many items. I just wanted to know what was on the car I was purchasing. It would have given me a chance to get them to fix the rim issue and know what I am actually getting. They kept telling me they would send over an equipment list but...

That is not true. Other manufactures fix the configurations for the model year. Tesla adds improvements as they become available, which is great except you dont know what you are getting. HW4 is a big improvement and was not listed anywhere.. removing data connectivity on all USB ports - only...

That is true and I can look at it now that I have the car. I wanted to see it prior to delivery so I could see what was included and know how everything works before driving off. It is a type A personality trait.

When people have unaddressed problems or Tesla fails to fix long standing issues which impact the vehicle's operation - whether software or hardware - you should have the ability to address the issues in a fashion other than the limitations that binding arbitration offers. It is better to have...

Do yourself a favor and send a certified letter to Tesla to OPT OUT of binding arbitration. It will give you options.

I read the owners manual before delivery so I would know how everything works. Many areas of the manual it says "If Equipped". I just wanted to know what I was buying. Also, things like HW3 and HW4 would be listed as well as whether it had floor mats, matrix headlights, the rims I requested...

I have a MDY with HW4 and just got 2023.20.7 but NO FSD despite a subscription. Tesla sucks for communication. They dont say anything, even would not give me an equipment list prior to taking delivery. Tesla needs to communicate with people better because many people are walking away...

You made a lot of great points and I totally agree. Moving your car into the garage should be a plus since you are putting the car somewhere safe. They vagueness of when and where an event occurred is bad enough, but not allowing comment or a review process is just lunacy. No wonder they want to...

The day after taking delivery I was parked in my driveway after dark when it was cooler putting on accessories with climate control on and listening to music. The car never moved an inch, but my safety score showed "late night driving". I did not drive anywhere in the Tesla that day. 3rd day...

Are all model Y cars being produced from now on coming with HW4? (excluding in the pipeline)

Yes, wait until delivery date and INSIST on inspecting the car before signing any paperwork. They try to do all of the paperwork first to prevent a refusal. You always have the absolute right to inspect before signing anything. Take a flashlight and small yellow post-it notes. Any issue, stick...

Tesla wants you to come in, sign paperwork, get your phone programmed to be the key and then go to the delivery area. At that time you own it and cannot "reject" it once everything is signed. It is important that you demand to inspect the vehicle first.
