    Tesla Autopilot and similar automated driving systems get ‘poor’ rating from prominent safety group

    I've seen arguments for this type of system from a comfort/convenience standpoint. I see that IIHS argues that "The lane-centering feature should not switch off automatically when the driver makes manual steering adjustments within the lane, as that can discourage drivers from being physically...

    Does anyone actually have FSD v12 yet?

    From what I've heard, it's about 1% of vehicles with FSD that are running V12, mostly employees in "Wave 1". So the vast majority won't have it. It looks like they halted the rollout a few weeks ago because Tesla did not deem V12.1.2 good enough. They just started rolling a new version last...

    Supercharger - Hawaiian Gardens, CA - 12110 E. Carson Ave. (under construction Feb 2024, 12 V3 stalls)

    Rode my bike by this site today and took some pics. Seems like not much has changed. I didn't see a transformer onsite so I assume that is why it's not open yet.

    FSD V12 and robotaxi rollout poll

    More bullish for FSD Level 3 tech, but definitely not robotaxi levels of autonomy anytime soon. I think the lack of sensor redundancy is the biggest thing for me. No way I see these cars going around town completely unsupervised.

    Supercharger - Anaheim, CA - Disney Way (permit, 24 stalls)

    Not sure about the politics of the council. But the last time they proposed the Eastern Gateway and tried to move forward with this project it got shot down because the businesses on harbor boulevard were not happy about a flyover pedestrian bridge that would bypass them. So the work stalled...

    Supercharger - Anaheim, CA - Disney Way (permit, 24 stalls)

    This is going to be a great spot if Disney gets Anaheim to let them go ahead with their Disneyland Forward plans. It would be located almost right across the street from the proposed Eastern Gateway parking structure and transportation center. I made a crude overlay based on the last released...

    Supercharger - Hawaiian Gardens, CA (LIVE 20 Dec 2023, 32 stalls)

    Looks like this site might be having issues? Drove by today and found that 9 of the 32 stalls were out of order. Perhaps some teething issues?

    Model Y Not Receiving Pushed Software Updates

    Mine is currently set to advanced, and at home in my garage climate is off, dog mode is off, and sentry mode is off. It's not really a button, but when you go to the "Software Tab" in the vehicle menu (where it tells you what version you're on), once every 24 hours it will check for updates...

    Model Y Not Receiving Pushed Software Updates

    I have a HW4 Model Y with the Ryzen MCU delivered in July 2023. I've an issue automatically downloading updates since I bought the car and I've not seen this with any other Tesla vehicles I've owned. In my 6 months of ownership of this car, it has never notified me that there is a software...

    Supercharger - Hawaiian Gardens, CA (LIVE 20 Dec 2023, 32 stalls)

    Drove by this site today and it seems like a transformer is now in place, so hopefully this site will open any day now. Took a photo but wasn't able to stop by, so the photo is from the street. It's hard to see as it is camouflaged by the bushes, but if you look real hard you can see the green...

    Elon: FSD Beta tweets

    I forgot to mention that I tested this at night with my '23 Model Y with the IR cameras. I'll test it again this weekend while driving around at night

    Elon: FSD Beta tweets

    I tested this the other day, and it seems to track eye position. I moved my head to look like I was watching the road but moved my eyeballs to stare at the center screen. After a few seconds I got the "Pay Attention to the Road" warning.

    MyQ shows garages but not gates?

    Ah thanks so much for the info. I was totally debating adding MyQ to my gate for the purpose of using the auto open from the Tesla but I guess this seals that fate. I guess I will stick to regular old Homelink.

    Supercharger - Bakersfield, CA - Camino Del Rio Ct (LIVE 22 Dec 2023, 20 V3 stalls)

    Somebody on Reddit pulled my option codes using my VIN from some service software (I think they work at an authorized repair facility with tools from Tesla). It apparently shows a full list of all the option codes for my vehicle and the 300 kW charging was one of them.

    Supercharger - Bakersfield, CA - Camino Del Rio Ct (LIVE 22 Dec 2023, 20 V3 stalls)

    My 2023 Model Y has an option code that says "CH16 Charger 48 Amp PCS1 Charger Hardware (RENA) w/ Busbar improvements allowing 300kW charging". Which I hope means once v4 is rolled out with 350 kW charging they will possibly allow capable vehicles to charge at 300 kW.

    Supercharger - Hawaiian Gardens, CA (LIVE 20 Dec 2023, 32 stalls)

    I noticed this site while driving past it, so I pulled over and took a few pics. Upon a quick count it looked like the full 32 stalls as shown in the permit. It's in the parking lot of the Hawaiian Gardens Casino. It's in a huge fenced off section of the lot, and it looks like an arm gate is...

    HW4 FSD beta Update here???

    Anyone having issues with autowipers at startup with this update (2023.26.11)? Almost every time I start my car it starts wiping the windshield. I cleaned my windshield cameras but no dice. Does this whether I start my car in the garage or if I'm outside. Strange....

    Is FSD w/ hardware 4 currently better than w/ hardware 3?

    Yes, all Model 3 is HW3 right now. Rumor is they wont switch to HW4 until Highland

    Steering wheel not able to drive straight

    I just picked up my Model Y last week (Built on 7/20/23 from Fremont) and at high speeds (65+ MPH) I feel extraneous lateral movement, almost like my car is being pushed left/right by high crosswinds. It happens fairly inconsistently but it has me slightly concerned. I saw the NHTSA probe and...

    I can post photos when I am out and about tomorrow. In the service menu, it lets you view all of the cameras including the ones on the windshield.

    Car advertising SBC Codec only, Not AAC

    Just took delivery of my Model Y and was shocked to see only SBC being offered. The Model 3 I had supported AAC. I wonder if this is a change from Intel to Ryzen or if Tesla mysteriously just dropped support for AAC.

    Is that the new radar or the old one?

    Waiting Room for MYLR/MYP: July 2023 Orders

    I bought FSD at time or ordering... I have heard the same thing from other threads which is really weird. IIRC FSD was more expensive if ordered after the fact, but I do remember they had a huge price drop.

    Waiting Room for MYLR/MYP: July 2023 Orders

    I traded in a 2018 Model 3 with FSD and the transfer went smoothly. I signed the form and later that day I went to drive my car and it showed a "Your Autopilot has returned to its original configuration" message and FSD was removed from the vehicle.

    A mouse ate my Tesla

    I had wheel sensors eaten off 2 of My Model 3s multiple times. I tried dryer sheets and peppermint extract and it worked for a few days but the rats came back. Pest control told me they are clever pests and will acclimate to the smell if they deem that the scent is not harmful/dangerous to them...

    Final can't fine wire transfer details for final payment

    It doesn't really show specifics in the app. You email/text your advisor the confirmation and I believe they check with their finance department on the backend to confirm that the transfer occurred. After my DA said everything looked good, I checked in the app and it just showed a green...

    Final can't fine wire transfer details for final payment

    I wire transferred yesterday and took delivery that afternoon. I wire transferred with the information above and sent the DA the receipt/confirmation of transfer. I had to ask for it though because it seems like wire transfers aren't really shown as an option on the app. Looks like they are...

    Waiting Room for MYLR/MYP: July 2023 Orders

    Update: Delivered as scheduled on 7/24 (factory floor to delivery in 4 days). Car was almost perfect in terms of build quality, spent an hour in the parking lot inspecting the vehicle. Some pressure buffeting from the rear hatch that I mostly fixed by adjusting the stops. Some dirt on the sun...

    The craziest thing is that apparently the car was built on Thursday 7/20. So factory floor to delivery in less than 4 days

    Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

    I just did the same today to upgrade my 2018 Model 3 to a LR AWD so I put in my order and immediately got a VIN within 30 minutes. It assigned me a VIN from Austin which doesn't have the new Matrix LED headlights so I asked them to reassign me a VIN which they did to a Fremont build. Looks like...

    Supercharger - Costa Mesa, CA - Bristol St (LIVE 23 Aug 2023, 12 V3 stalls)

    Swung by today and took some photos. the exact pin to the location in the lot is here. It's in the parking lot of the Travelodge on the Taco Bell side of the lot. There are 12 stalls in total with two of them being the handicap dual purpose spaces. Looks like the site is awaiting a...

    All saved setting erased after updating to 2022.20.6

    The v11 indicates the OS version which is 11, which is separate from FSD version. The car wipes its memory so it shows the welcome to v11 again.

    My Tesla M3 teased me with FSD 11.0 update! Anyone else?

    Yeah, happened to me twice as well. Once when I updated my car to the latest version, and once when I rebooted my display. Rumor is that it will be fixed in the 2023.XX branch of software updates.

    All saved setting erased after updating to 2022.20.6

    Same with me. 2022.44.30.10 wiped all of my car's memory and essentially factory reset the vehicle.

    Guided tours

    Or do you mean where FSD drives you around i.e. Downtown San Francisco following multiple waypoints with a narrated audio track? There's a cool app I used in Hawaii called Shaka Guides where it used phone GPS to trigger audio tour waypoints and narrated drives around the islands. Something...

    FSD Beta 10.69

    I've been having issues with FSD as well. It keeps disengaging with a "Take Over Immediately" after a few miles. I get the red steering wheel and alarm with an "Autosteer aborted due to system error" message on the display. It's weird because the FSD visualizations still show, just no trajectory...

    FSD BETA 10.69.2 FAILS POLL

    I'm having a lot of "Take Over Immediately" alerts with AP not being available until after a screen reboot. Also for about 25% of my drives, AP/FSD is not available at all. The FSD visualization still shows but no trajectory/path line. Sometimes a reboot fixes it, but not all the time. I...

    Supercharger - Long Beach, CA (LIVE 16 May 2022, 20 V3 stalls)

    I was running some errands and saw some familiar equipment in the parking lot. Upon closer inspection it looks like it's a 20 stall Tesla Supercharger. Went online and found the permit as well. Trenching is underway and the pedestals are being put in place. Located in the parking lot in front of...

    Herky jerky autopilot

    I had the same issue yesterday in stop and go traffic. It would rapidly accelerate and then slam the brake every time the car in front of me would inch forward. I had my following distance set to 3. I tried Chill in the FSD Beta settings but that didn't make a difference. It was so bad that my...

    #FixPhantomBraking

    The ultrasonics are not suitable for AEB. They are too short range and are really only useful at low speeds due to latency. Tesla used ultrasonics for blind spot monitoring before they started using cameras and it was really bad.

    Shift gears while rolling no longer working on 10.3?

    I noticed the same thing, I usually shift at a slight roll while backing into my driveway and ever since FSD Beta I haven't been able to do that. This was 10.2, 10.3, and 10.3.1. When I got rolled back to prod I did gain that behavior back for one day. I did find that odd.

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    That has been my experience as well. My neighborhood has unmarked streets and the car seems to try and drive down the exact center. It does move over when there is oncoming traffic but not as quickly as it should and it can spook the other driver. And these roads are curvy so sometimes you can't...

    Who with a score of 100 and more than 100 miles is still waiting for FSD roll out?

    Post locations where you think FSD (beta or not) will fail spectacularly

    I don't think it's really the street layout that makes Manhattan difficult. One way streets and grid layout shouldn't be a problem. It's more of the other traffic and pedestrians. FSD isn't very assertive and is very hesitant. Manhattan drivers and pedestrians don't really wait for anyone...
