    Autopilot / Active Safety features unavailable. Camera alignment required.

    I have gotten this message three times in the last month. Twice right after supercharging, once after the car had been sitting undriven for a few weeks. The entire message is" Autopilot / Active Safety features unavailable. Camera alignment required. Schedule service." What I have found is...

    I got a very unfair third strike that I do not understand. Please help.

    Early January I was , for the first time in many years, having trouble with autopilot warnings and strikes. After reading this thread, I drove about 300 miles with very few warnings (and zero strikes). I really appreciate everyone's helpful comments and look forward to more. OP

    I got a very unfair third strike that I do not understand. Please help.

    Moreover, in about 50,000 miles over 4+ years driving using FSD, AP, auto steer extensively, this has never happened to me before. I have never gotten a strike before that I did not think was my fault.

    No that is incorrect. I saw the alerts, I did torque the wheel and the alerts escalated at normal pace to a strike in spite of the fact that I was torquing the wheel and looking at the road. That is the puzzling aspect.

    I got a very unfair third strike that I do not understand. Please help.

    I am not that tall (5'9") and tend to drive in a low position and with the seat forward so that I am close to the steering wheel and don't have to extend my arms to applied steering wheel torque. I think my problems are correlated with the advent of interior camera monitoring.

    I had the same experience as you until recently. From day one in my model 3 for years (since 2018) I had no trouble satisfying the nag. It was pretty effortless and easy. light torque, sometimes occasional, usually with my left hand. Not a problem. My experience has changed very recently. I...

    FSD beta strikes

    I thought there was something people applied for where you got FSD features early and you were sort of an FSD beta tester? Am I just imagining that? I recall something pretty selective based on driving and you could get kicked out...?

    FSD beta strikes

    sorry, my mistake. They installed HW3 not HW4. About a year after I paid as I recall.

    FSD beta strikes

    Right. I got confused. They did a service call and installed some hardware. I guess that was HW3 that they installed around 2019.

    Good idea. I wonder if my cabin camera is misaligned or something.

    No. I wasn't eating at that time. I was driving with two hands on the wheel. I think it said that in the 2nd sentence of the original post. If I was eating at the time I would have understood why I got the strike.

    FSD beta strikes

    I think I have an interior camera, but I only got three strikes before I was locked out for a week recently. I was driving a 2023 Model Y with just basic autopilot auto steer. We also have a 2018 model 3 with FSD (though not FSD beta as far as I know. we just paid the $3000 back in 2019 or...

    I got a very unfair third strike that I do not understand. Please help.

    On my last drive north on highway 101 from Santa Barbara to the SF Bay Area I got 3 strikes. The third one especially seemed completely unfair. By that point, I was very focused on not loosing the use of autopilot for the drive. I had two hands on the wheel and was staring straight ahead at the...
