I have had this happen a couple times on 10.12, although I never let it go as far as in that video. Definitely an issue.

I expect it's purely coincidental, but has anyone else had a 12v battery fail on FSD Beta 10.12 (2022.12.3.20)? With no prior battery symptoms or warnings, mine was dead this morning, about 30 hours after installing 10.12. I jump started using the wires behind the front tow cover and drove...

I'm sure every place where rights on red are legal has an occasional intersection where signage prohibits right on red, so Tesla obviously has to implement recognition of all common variants of the signs. I think it's inevitable that Tesla will have to test and update on a state-by-state basis...

I decided to replace one of my front wheel bearing hubs after listening to a rumble in left turns for several months (an especially severe pothole impact). I have a car lift in my home workshop, so it made sense to indulge my curiosity and do it myself. What I'm glad to report is service on...

What issues are being reported? It's definitely a long ways from perfect, but in my vast 25 minutes driving experience on 10.5, it was either about the same or significantly improved depending on the situation.

Just completed 15 miles on 10.5 from an urban center to my suburban home. No disengagements, just 3 or 4 instances goosing the accelerator to deal with hesitation or unnecessary slowdowns. The car now mostly stays right of center in my neighborhood when there are no cars parked on the road...

FSD's neighborhood behavior is worse than 10.2 and 10.3. It is very uncommon to find a car parked on the street in my neighborhood. Nonetheless, the car centers itself on the 25 foot wide asphalt street and does not move right until it's about 100 feet from an on-coming car (way too late for...

I'm mainly frustrated with phantom and early braking, but all the other things that are problematic aren't really available outside the FSD program anyway, so I'm not exactly losing much competent functionality by participating. It's neat to see the things FSD can do, and a privilege to watch...

You nailed the two must frustrating behaviors from my perspective. Unfortunately the braking beyond the need behavior has been a consistent part of autopilot for a while even before FSD Beta. It's most noticeable in the right lane when the braking continues (far) too long for a car exiting the...

Wow. That traffic calming device only makes sense in an area that never sees snow and ice.

I think we all expect to run into serious issues when we let FSD drive. Alarm bells are going off today primarily because the AEB bug dangerously overrode several drivers on manual control. That kind of undermines confidence in the central premise of the wider beta audience - that an attentive...

Any time the obvious meat computer-killing AEB/FCW bug was not active, 10.3 seemed more competent than 10.2. However, even with those improvements, I hope Tesla will quickly prioritize: near-center driving on residential roads without lane lines, even if there are no parked cars on the sides...

More than once today I've wondered if anyone in the beta fleet goes by John Connor.

I'm still on 10.3. It's interesting Tesla seems to have chosen a work-around, although I wish they had given us a heads-up. AEB and FCW switches were both turned on in software (FCW to medium) earlier today. Now I'm still on 10.3 and both switches are set to off, and no one from my crew has...

Wow. Did you get phantom FCW's in advance? I'm hoping we at least have that warning sign to pull over and let the car reset.

This is Jekyll and Hyde behavior. For me anyway, 10.3 is either working fine, safer and smoother than 10.2, or it's outright broken. And then it can go back to being fine again if you let the car sit for a while. Given the on/off behavior, my guess is someone on the beta team screwed up...

Bad timing for this article: Tesla FSD Beta is starting to save lives

I guess Teslarati does not have FSD beta testers on staff, since it chose today to run the headline "Tesla FSD Beta is starting to save lives"

At least based on what I am seeing, the car is seeing correctly. I had an FCW from the edge of the perception range where it highlighted the car in red. It was absurd. It has correct data, it's just using it wrong.

This is really too bad. When it was working, it was a pretty significant improvement over 10.2. One spot near my home it made a dangerous move every time on 10.2. The car did not even consider the wrong thing on 10.3. But like most others, I'm now getting an FCW every 15 seconds, sometimes as...

Might as well order replacement brake pad, tie rod ends and bushings now. "FSD-fortified" suspension and brake parts could be a major business opportunity.

I think you're probably right. I stopped letting AP handle entrance merges a long time ago, and I'm only letting it do so now because I'm attempting end-to-end FSD drives. Given that Elon has repeatedly said AP identifies the physically drivable area beyond the lane lines, it's hard to...

There are a lot of things to be improved and fixed, but I have some drives in light to moderate traffic that FSD can complete without intervention. Apart from one location in my area where I'm convinced it would crash (every time), I mainly intervene to respect other road users or because it's...

Downloaded and tried out this morning. On well marked arterials, it's pretty satisfactory. Maybe the safety score misery was a way to make us appreciate FSD's assertiveness.

Massive and imprecise changes in following distance by autopilot is definitely a problem. Even if you're in the right lane, other people who want to be in the right lane go to pass you because you've dropped back two football fields and then autopilot closes the gap before they can complete the...

The problem here is people are going to see Teslas routinely impeding traffic or driving erratically to satisfy Tesla's metrics. Progressive and others can get by with their systems because it's not obvious that Progressive is pulling the strings of the Corolla driver in everyone's way. People...

Totally unacceptable, and given the nuisance driving behavior safety score promotes, it will be a hard no for me if Tesla ever offers it in my state.

I'll preface my frustration by saying after more than two years of ownership, my model 3 has been my favorite car out of probably 12 fun cars (mostly manuals) I've had as daily drivers. Further, despite his faults, Elon is on balance my favorite person in the public eye. Tesla's top two...

Although it can obviously be abused, I fail to see how anyone has a problem with someone correcting for totally false FCWs. I personally had one with hundreds of feet to the next car in my lane. Given the steep penalty and the complete lack of value in including an incorrect result in the data...

I hit 100 on Friday night at 11:52PM locally, 9:52PM PST, over 700 miles total. No luck yet on my model 3.

I wish Tesla would commit to a retrofit option later. Long-term I need the 7 seater, but I would buy a 5 seater now if I was sure I could retrofit at a cost similar to the 7 seat option.

I wish Musk had never engaged in this fight. However, whatever sympathy Unsworth earned/accumulated throughout the trial, the immense overreach on damages instantly blew the credibility of Unsworth's team. Even with a billionaire defendant who acted like a jerk in this case, it was predictable...

If Unsworth's settlement demands were remotely that high, I guess that answers the question as to why Elon didn't settle. No way this case is worth 8+figures even with sizable punitive damages.

I have a 2 post lift at my home, and use tesla-specific jack inserts. Even though most lifts have rubber pads, the problem is the diameter of the rubber pad is significantly larger than the lift points on the car. The rubber is bounded with a steel rim that could put unwanted pressure on the...

We had a similar problem with a 2012 Toyota a few year ago, in our case a squirrel was eating wires and depositing acorns throughout the engine bay every night. Woke up every morning and got to splice a few more connections. We ended up using capsaicin (substance that makes hot peppers hot)...

Follow the lower limit, but allow the owner to set case-by-case exceptions for individual school zones in their area, and allow fine-tuning for times of day and days of the week. Case-by-case exceptions would come with prominent warnings about the owner's responsibility for compliance...

We currently cram our 5 family members in the Model 3 for a lot of road trips because all five of us like it better than our roomier cars. However, the Model Y (or an X) will eventually be the primary trip car and the Model 3 will be a pure moderate distance commuter. Even though I expect to...

Given the indefinite timeline for feature-complete FSD, I wish Tesla would offer portability for FSD purchases with a $1k or so transfer fee to move it to a new Tesla. I recognize Tesla would need to address complications, such as a process to obtain releases from the lienholders (assuming the...

My May 2019 Model 3 has converted me from interested observer to enthusiastic fan. However, the opportunities for software improvements are vast, and some seem like they would be fairly easy to implement. Top feature requests: 1. Autosteer options/fixes to avoid or compensate for...
