    Wipers Turning to Manual from Auto

    I can't get mine to stop with audible command to stop wipers when I'm in auto pilot. Works fine when I'm not. But whenever I'm in autopilot, the wipers run continuously.

    M3P Auto wipers on when in Autopilot normal? [yes]

    I couldn't agree more. Have as good a trip as you can under the circumstances. My previoius car, a 2015 MS with autopilot carried my wife and me across country five times, no issues at all. We loved the long trips, mostly because of autopilot. Now, I'm dreading this trip coming up soon.

    Auto wipers on in autopilot when it's not raining

    Did you ever get this resolved? I have the same problem in my brand new Model Y Long Range and am seeking a solution.

    Is it madness that wipers can't be controlled by the driver on cruise control or autopilot mode?

    My experience exactly. My MY LR is only two weeks old and it's been doing this continuously since day 1. After three attempts by Tesla service to fix it, the problem persists.

    windshield wipers come on when I go into Cruise Control.

    What I know is that Tesla is not fixing the problem. I have a two week old LR MY. It happens nearly every time I try to engage either TACC or auto pilot. After two service appointments at the service center and one visit by the mobile service team, the problem persists. The windshield and...

    windshield wipers come on when I go into Cruise Control.

    Didn't work for me in a 2 week old MY LR. I have taken it to TEsla to fix three times so far, still no joy.

    M3P Auto wipers on when in Autopilot normal? [yes]

    No and it is maddening, isn't it? I'm contemplating a 1500 mile trip in a few weeks. The weather should be fine for most of the drive. But I will have only two choices: 1. Avoid use of autopilot (and I paid $6,000 for Enhanced +Autopilot!), or 2. Run wipers continuously on a dry...

    Is it madness that wipers can't be controlled by the driver on cruise control or autopilot mode?

    Doesn't work when in autopilot in my 2023 MYLR. The OFF button is greyed out.

    Is it madness that wipers can't be controlled by the driver on cruise control or autopilot mode?

    I follow your logic but it makes me question it, too. First, since driving on AI requires good vision, the engineers made sure that both high beams and wipers are placed in auto mode. Great, but when I'm driving manually (the old fashioned way) I also need good vision. Why doesn't this logic...

    Can't turn off auto wipers or high beams? [on autopilot]

    I agree 100%. My previous car was a 2015 Model S (one of the first that had the original version of autopilot). Worked great for me for 7+ years. Now have a brand new Model Y LR and the wipers come on every time I shift into either TACC or auto pilot. Can't do this much longer...

    Sometimes it’s possessed! [auto wipers without rain / side camera blocked message]

    I have had my brand new LR MY for about two weeks. I had a model S for seven years before this car. I'm a Tesla fan! But now, I cannot ever engage either TACC or Autopilot without the wipers coming on and the OFF button on the screen is greyed out. I have taken it to the service center...

    12v battery warranty?

    Does anyone know about the lithium 12V battery that is offered by a 3rd party? My Model S gave me "replace 12v battery soon" error today. I called for service and could not talk to a human, no matter what I tried. Then, I finally signed up for mobile service replacement but it won't be for...

    New superchargers

    there are at least four supercharger locations in the greater Seattle area that haven’t (yet) been built. But they all say “coming in CY 2018.” I understand how predictions are never perfect but isn’t there some chance they could be updated? After all, we are 1/4 through CY 2019 already.

    Tesla service is rapidly becoming one of the worst!!

    For the first two years that I owned my 2015 Model S, I was 6 hours from three different service centers. Just dropping by my local service center to deliver cookies was not an option. But when I called the 24-7 customer service line, I always got excellent service. Then, I moved to a big...

    What happened to the good old Tesla service and how to escalate ?

    I'm pretty frustrated, too. Mine is a 2015 Model S with 72,000 miles already. I LOVE the car and the engineering that went into it. I UISED to love the service. I could call the 24-7 customer hotline number any time day or night and talk to someone who actually knows the vehicle and the...
