My score dropped to 97 due to FCW issues from yesterday, but I did not get booted - Tesla sent an email and installing 10.3.1 (2021.36.5.3) now!

Because I was already admitted into the Beta and it’s clearly a bug that impacted most of us. If you weren’t on beta then you didn’t experience the issue. Cars that were a football field away were causing FCW.

Teslafi doesn’t show it pushing to any cars yet. The FCw bug gave me a safety score of 47 yesterday and dropped me to a 97. Hopeful logic prevails for all of us in that boat and we don’t get booted.

It is a bummer but I experienced some really odd behavior, even for a beta. While stopped at a red light my car decided to just start going while it was still red. Luckily I was able to slam on the brakes while getting crazy looks from those around me. While driving in a parking lot my car also...

I wish I wasn’t so quick to install as it removed BETA entirely. Now I’m back to score anxiety :0

After my first drive using BETA (successfully), I loaded up the family so they could experience it. Behold, autopilot could not be engaged (nor could cruise control). I tried resetting the car, driving for 10+ miles and letting it sit for awhile I still have no ability to engage autopilot. It’s...

Yes! Mine alerts like this only when not using autopilot but the car in front of me is 10 car lengths away yet still gives a forward collision warning.

1) Turn on Chill Mode for acceleration and don't punch it at the line! 2) Turn regen braking to "Low" as I read standard can brake too hard and flag you (didn't test this, just read it) 3) Take turns slowly 4) 5 MPH max over speed limit - I use auto-pilot as well 5) I set distance to 4 for...

Boom! Turn on chill mode. Low regen braking so it doesn't brake too quickly. Drive like your 80!

Elon‘s response did not indicate he plans to show production cybertruck in Q2 (another misleading news headline, shocker). Hopefully we do learn more on features and delivery dates but there is no indication we’re going to see the production version in Q2.

Love that this is a tank that can't be penetrated by a 9mm, except I guess you can throw a rock and break the window! But assuming they fix that, one key important aspect of a car is that the fire department can saw it open to extract the passengers. Is this just a death trap?

I have already ordered it. Who knows what will change between now and 3 years when this rolls off the production line. The target market isn't an ordinary truck buyer. Clearly this is a radical shift from the norm, but isn't that the point? Elon already said months ago that this won't be for...

They have to offer the ATV as an optional add-on by the time this hits production. Regardless of the looks (which have grown on me), how sweet would it be picking up this tank with an ATV sitting in the back!?

My AC is making a loud fan squeal when the car is idle and you can hear it wind down as it shuts off. Tesla service, who is generally not very helpful and like to push and cancel reservations, tells me this is normal and wants to cancel my appointment. Is it??

I had the same notification today. I'm constantly connected to wifi and even confirmed it was connected when I got the message. I updated to 2018.34 several days ago. I'm wondering if it was just an erroneous message? I tried calling Tesla support but the hold time was "Greater than 1 hour!"...
