Took my car to my favorite detailer. He treated 4 squares about 8" on a side. 1 with G4, one with ?? G2? I forgot, one with some kind of bathtub scum cleaner and one with a clay bar. Supposed to rain tomorrow so I'll go for a drive and test. If it doesn't rain at night I'll just throw some water...

This is my "Before" picture. Probably the worst you've ever seen. This is the 3rd windshield that I have had with this car (2021 S Plaid) and every one had the scum problem although not quite as bad as the current one. The scum really shows up on a rainy night. I haven't finally decided which...

If anyone added something to the glass surface it was Tesla. I have only used Windex and a paper towel on the windshield, and that was maybe twice. It had this problem the day I bought it, same for my Model 3. The M3 was put through the ringer trying to get it clear, so I'm hesitant to just go...

2019 Model 3: 2 windshields 2021 Model S Plaid: 3 windshields 2022 Model X: 1 windshield Every Tesla I've owned has this problem to some degree. My Model S is the worst. I've tried all kinds of cleaners. I've had a detail shop work on it for half a day. They even tried a ceramic coating on the...

... continued, 20 days later... I got my car back this morning. The main thing is that they replaced the computer with a new one. I do believe that has been the source of my problems so far, and I also believe that the mobile tech who did the replacement of the internal camera was somehow the...

No, there isn't. Welcome to the Tesla club. If I met you on the highway I'd wave at you. With both hands. :)

Update: Drove to Florida this past Sunday (12/28). The next morning I discovered that my camera problem is back (no TACC, no FSD, no backup camera, etc.). So I had to drive 550 miles back home using my arms to physically move the yoke, and had to use my feet to push on the pedals. What a chore...

Forgot to update the last experience.... my FSD Beta came back! And so did the false accusations of driving without paying attention, just like it was before the original event of having my internal camera replaced. That camera had nothing to do with it. It has to be a software issue just like I...

Got my car back today, a day early. For some reason it seems the entire service staff was not present, and road cones had been placed at the service entrance. Like the place had been shut down. Anyway, I got a guy from the sales floor to check me out. He looked in the computer at what they had...

A couple of versions ago I was on a 2-lane rural road in perfect weather conditions and good lane markings, when FSDb swerved into the oncoming lane (no traffic) for no apparent reason, then stayed in that lane for about 200 feet before swerving back into the correct lane. Since then I have seen...

Both cars, vision only. Model S has FSDb, X has FSD but not beta.

What are you driving?

Since I am sure that Elon reads this forum every day I thought I would communicate with him here. To summarize: Tesla Service Needs Your Attention. A couple of updates ago when eye tracking was enabled, my Model S started falsely accusing me of not paying attention. After getting the threat to...

Did you get any real vehicles in a phantom location like this? When I pass a semi I often see it bounce all over the place in the visualization, but nothing quite as bad as this. This wasn't very bouncy. It stayed in the far right lane until I got even with the cab. Almost all vehicles that I...

Thanks, but I've done all that more than once. I've got a good chance of things getting better on Aug 4. Tesla service is replacing the computer and several other items after it became possessed and systems started failing right & left. At the moment all I have is a fast manually-driven car.
