I've actually got 30+ years experience with software and hardware including embedded systems and manufacturing. This sudden switch over to vision only boggles my mind and is why I put my order on hold. The only explanation that makes any sense is that they could not get enough radar units, so...

For what it's worth I had no trouble putting my order on hold, I texted them on Memorial Day and they got back to me within the hour. They initially asked me to review the path to Tesla Vision web site, but I explained I had ordered a car with certain safety features and wanted to wait until...

Thanks, I guess we’ll see. And yes, I don’t expect them to hold a specific car. Sadly I seem to have very poor timing to order right in the middle of this transistion.

I placed an order for a SR+ Model 3 on 4/21 and was anxiously refreshing my account page watching the order date ping around in June until the radar removal announced. Let's just say I'm very disappointed with how that was handled. I've asked them to hold my order and they said they will...

Has anyone seen confirmation that safety features such as FCW and AEB will also require auto high beam to be enabled at night? I assume since those are now vision driven that it would be the case, but I haven't seen it specifically mentioned.

I would be very surprised if they switch away from the heat pump without anyone noticing. That's a substantial change to the manufacturing line with consequences up and down the process. Not including the radar could be as simple as not including the Continental part. I would imagine the...

From what I've seen so far the cabin camera attention detection may reduce how often you are pinged to apply torque to the wheel but is not yet required. However, that may change in the future. Given the abuses of AP I've seen, this doesn't bother me though I can understand why others think...

I'm assuming with the removal of radar other features such as Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Breaking, etc, will also be purely vision based. Therefore, this means to take advantage of these safety features at night then Auto High Beam would also be required to be enabled? Has...

I replied via text to same number that my order confirmation came in from and they replied within an hour. And this was on Memorial Day. They did initially refer me to the website announcing that an update in two weeks will resolve everything but when I replied that I had already reviewed the...

This is the only scenario that makes any sense. Otherwise, they would have finished the software, gotten verified by NHTSA and other organizations, and then shipped. If they had announced there was a shortage of radar components, it would ship without and would have limited functionality until...

Not what I had hoped for my first post, but sadly I feel the same. I've been following autonomous and electrical vehicles for years, and when Tesla came on the scene and announced plans for their high end sedan and then a mid-range car which became the Model 3 I was very excited. Finally after...
