We should trade cars. We stopped using Autopilot due to all the fails and then decided to give it one more shot when FSD became free for a month. It's still glitched and unpredictable even in perfect conditions. Every update to FSD/Autopilot changes removes the ability to just engage cruise...

Sometimes we can't see genius vision for what it is and sometimes leaders think they can't make a bad decision. We're getting too much of the latter from Musk lately.

Elon is a micro manager. For better or worse. Lately, it's for worse.

That was my first thought too.

Is Henry still making cars? Talk about a long-living CEO.

I don't that them. Why do you say that? I don't even hate Musk.

I don't think it's the best car in the world. I still prefer driving my compact SUV over our Model 3. Autopilot is made more useless with each update and we can't turn the windshield wipers off. I don't like how Musk treats his employees and I don't agree with his political views. I don't feel...

We won't be buying another Tesla as long as Musk is at the helm. I think he wants a company with zero employees lol.

More than just nags. I’ve already received one strike. That was for grabbing a coffee from the cupholder. My wife and agreed we just won’t use autopilot anymore.

Argh. New problem just reared its ugly head. The seatbelt warning won’t go away for the left rear seat. We’ve had to connect the belt even though there’s nothing on the seat.

It will also turn off lane departure assistance very quickly when driving in a construction zone that forces one to drive on the shoulder. I get that but Telsa’s approach seems to be to shut off aids when a driver might most benefit from them.

No they aren’t (customer sat) at least if you believe Consumer Reports.

I didn’t buy it. It’s the wife’s car.

Hi, good to hear. The wipers are returning to Auto mode when just using cruise. I stopped using Autopilot about two days ago. The wipers returning to Auto would be OK if they’d stop activating in sunshine when there’s no moisture.

That’s exactly what I found myself doing. Manually pushing down on the throttle. It sometimes seems to get stuck and won’t accelerate until you so this.

I don’t think i was holding the wheel now that you mention it.

Spent two weeks on the road. Barely ever used autopilot as you can’t do anything normal with it it engaged. Dipped my chin slightly to take a bite of a wrap and it shut off and told me I wasn’t driving safely. It’s completely useless now and a waste of money. Did notice though that if I wore...

Before getting our Telsa I thought Autopilot and/or FSD was all about making the vehicle safer and assisting the driver with avoiding accidents. Now I see it as a more of a curiosity that nags you when you drive it like a regular old Corolla and in fact, it’s so determined not to help you, it...

I think that's what I meant. I keep calling it FSD but it's autopilot I believe.

Yes, I had one hand on the wheel I think. I took my time placing and removing the coffee so might have been more than a couple of seconds. Do you get the warnings with just one hand on the wheel?

The latest update from a few days ago is shite. Although I don't use it very often, FSD told me I needed both hands on the wheel and issued a warning. When I looked down to grab my coffee it issued a warning. When I looked down to place the coffee back in the cupholder it told me I wasn't paying...

Better than what? Cruise on its own? Or did you mean better than before?

We stopped using FSD a year ago. Don’t trust it and not taking any chances with getting rear ended.

Yeah. Was frustrated after the update as I couldn’t engage cruise. Once we landed at our destination I was able to reconfigure it so cruise was once again available. I feel it’s not smart what they did. But well Tesla.

Tap it? Not flick it up or down then. Ok!

That’s it really. If I cancel cruise by flicking up on the stalk, is there a way to resume it or do I have set it again manually?

Ours does the same. We rarely use self driving anymore. I think though that they’re re-enabling LIDAR. Hopefully that will improve things.

My 2014 Ford’s park warnings are much more reliable than the ones on the Tesla. And yes, self driving is a crap shoot, we hardly ever use it now. However, we still love the car and wouldn’t trade it for anything else on the market right now.

Was thinking of doing it but a few updates ago, the subwoofer finally turned on and it sounds much better.

Funny. We just got a flat too. A sharp stone punctured the tire. Our lesson learned? We bought a pouch of those four jack pads as many tow truck drivers won’t have them. Same with tire repair shops. Now, they can just use the set we keep in the frunk.

What would the title be?

It seemed to coincide with Musk’s massive layoffs.

Didn’t know such things existed. I can see how they’d be easy to back into.

Awesome. Thanks

What is this internet of which you speak?

Quick, interesting read. Thanks

Does anyone know if Musk is going to re-enable radar in our Tesla's that have the hardware? It's got to improve this phantom braking issue that myself and many others have.

Whoa Good to know I'm not alone. Wonder if wearing sunglasses might be affecting its ability to determine attentiveness.

I elaborated further on that the option to disable the interior camera is no longer there. So, I don't think that's it unless I'm missing where that setting went to.

Funny you should mention that. We're looking at a second EV and the Tesla deal with Ford is interesting for next year. Might look at the Mach E again.

Are you missing the word 'out'? If yes then it does for sure.

If you read my OP, it was the 11 seconds apart nags I was complaining about. I don't know why it's sometimes a minute apart and at other times, 11 seconds.

Makes perfect sense to me. Just wishing I didn't need hands on the wheel all the time.

It wouldn't unless it can read my mind. Maybe I need that brain implant Musk is working on, Anyway, what I was complaining about was the 11 second nag, not the one that sometimes seems like they are a minute apart.

I agree but having my hands on my lap doesn't mean I'm not paying attention.

Thanks for chiming in. I'll do some searching. Thought I had but maybe I didn't :)

No one has any experience with these tires?

True. I didn’t mean forever but 11 seconds seems too short. A minute or so seems more reasonable to me especially if the interior camera feels I’m paying attention.

Good thing you don’t live in Canada where it drops to -30 or you’d barely be able to get to the corner store.

Thanks. Will do.
