    Any advice on FSD usage after 2 false strikes

    Just realized something interesting: Everybody seems to know that giving your right scroll wheel a little ”love” counts as torque on the wheel. Mine does the same with the left scroll wheel, too. I change volume on the stereo every song now. No fruit required.

    FSD Beta 5-strike strike-out auto-reset after 2 weeks

    My MYP hates my hat. I was driving into the morning sun such that the sun visor couldn’t shade my eyes - the sun was between the interior mirror and the visor. So I pulled my baseball-style cap over my right eye and got a “look at the road“ warning, even though I was looking straight ahead. I...

    FSD 11.4.7.3 The latest disaster

    And I think we can all see how that’s working out for them. It looks to me like Tesla is actually falling behind other manufactures who don’t need to hide behind a (beta) tag.

    FSD beta - first time user reactions

    My wife flatly refuses to learn to drive my new MYP. She hates it when it does something she does not expect — safe or not (like the “suicide dive of death” into the left turn lane or third, passing lane going up a long hill). I lost a lot of her respect for paying for something so “quirky.”...

    FSD 11.4.7.3 The latest disaster

    I just watched a video by a guy (Mike Seuss?) who went to a Tesla “unveiling” of an actual CyberTruck at a Tesla store. I didn’t learn anything new about the ‘truck, but he stated that Tesla intends to use the same AI’s for the robots as FSD (beta - as it is now, always has been and always shall...

    FSD Beta 5-strike strike-out auto-reset after 2 weeks

    That’s a GREAT video. I still have two more strikes before I get locked out, though, so I will be on the look out for blue flashes. I still think we have all been sold a bill of goods by Tesla and I worked myself up into such a snit that I contacted a Class Action Law Firm. Here is there...

    FSD beta - first time user reactions

    Traditionally, “beta testing” is done by volunteer or paid “beta testers,” not fools like me who actually pay to do it. What was I thinking? I guess I should have seen through the (beta) tag and realized that’s it is more like a disclaimer on a financial statement. They believe they can do...

    FSD Beta 5-strike strike-out auto-reset after 2 weeks

    I have only had my model Y performance for about 2 weeks - so go ahead and call me a “noob“ if you want. Only got the car for the Funky Self Driving (burp). I got my first strike w/in the first 100 miles on my way home and if it came with a warning I never saw it. I got the next one when I tried...

    FSD beta - first time user reactions

    Nevertheless, I feel like I have been misled by Tesla. My suggestion is for them to sell cars with whatever hardware is necessary for what they are advertising (like Self Parking and Summons) it costs so the buyer gets what they are after, and a reduced price for a model that doesn’t promise...

    FSD beta - first time user reactions

    I’m with you about too many Nancy systems. My 2021 Ram is at least as bad, though. Seems to be the way the insurance companies and lawyers are pushing us. But I’m getting up there in personal mileage and I had high hopes that “The most advanced Self Driving Car in world” would help with the 180...

    FSD beta - first time user reactions

    Sorry, I haven’t figured out how to cut a partial quote from someone else's Post, but UserAnnon99 said “ I would never trust it around city streets.” My user manual states “You can use Full Self-Driving (Beta) on any type of roadway, including residential and city streets.” Maybe that statement...

    FSD-beta simply does not yield

    Where I live, Central Missouri, I believe it is the same as in Georgia, above. I haven’t seen my car have a problem with that. But I have to transit a quiet, residential traffic circle every time I leave and return home - which I go straight through after passing two off-ramps one way and one...

    FSD Beta - Regaining lost FSD Beta privileges?

    Thank you for that info - I was unaware of the “Bug Report” option. I am going to setup my iPhone to shoot over my shoulder, maybe on a seat back, so it can record the actual warning sequence, even if I miss it. I have also learned that I can have the alerts set to vibrate as well as print to...

    FSD Beta - Regaining lost FSD Beta privileges?

    I paid the $12,000 for FSD(don’t forget to say “beta”) to help me get to and from my chemotherapy treatments every week 150 miles from home. On the first trip home, the stupid thing tripped off “with prejudice” with no warning - at not one I saw (my eyes were on the road, not the screen). I...

    FSD beta - first time user reactions

    I just picked up my 2023 Model Y Performance with FSD. I absolutely love manually driving the car, but I’m going to lose my license pretty quickly when the speeding tickets start to pile up! I was only given about 5 minutes of instruction on how to operate the car at delivery time - good thing I...
