    "Cabin Camera Unavailable" Kills FSD. AP Okay.

    So if I have turned off the interior camera. It would pop up warnings? Or if the interior camera was turned off AND reports sent to Tesla turned off, the warning camera alert would pop up?

    Is this a 2024 update?

    v11.1 ⁦(2024.3.10 9d92fb944d7f)⁩ This is the update which loaded a few days ago. But I’m confused. I have had FSD since purchasing my 2019 M3. I got the v12 “supervised “ update. Then this V11.1 update came through a few days later. Is this version more improved then v12 “supervised “?

    "Cabin Camera Unavailable" Kills FSD. AP Okay.

    My car occasionally pops up the warning “ camera unavailable “. I am assuming it’s because I have turned off the interior camera? But I'm not sure. I don’t use the FSD, but if I did I would be more alarmed.

    Lost Power Steering.

    My steering went out while I was driving. A “ steering reduced” warning popped up. When I took a turn I could barely turn the wheel. Mechanic told me it does happen at times. He said get out of car. Park it. And it sometimes resets steering. That’s fine when you’re parked. How about when driving!

    Tesla announced it will offer FSD to competitors

    As for Waymo. They are two different systems. Tesla’s self-driving is supposed to work everywhere, instantly in real time, without use of lidar, etc. Waymo’s is geofenced to particular cities. Meaning Waymo would basically have to map out the world in order for it to work properly.
