    How to sue Tesla over historical claims

    I submitted a complaint. It probably won't do anything but it only took 5 minutes.

    Wiki FSD’s Earliest Adopters Still Waiting

    Hmmm...Ioniq5 just had its best March sales ever (no tax rebates)...Tesla just had it's first decrease in recent memory (still eligible for tax rebates) Personally this is my first and last Tesla. Absolutely love this car, but hate most of the "refresh" stuff. I'm driving this 2017 (MCU1)...

    How to sue Tesla over historical claims

    That's the plan. I'll likely do this in late April or early May. Definitely not signing any NDAs. I want to share with my friends here!

    MCU1 -> MCU2, FSD Computer with updated cameras on Legacy X. “Update BETA in route!”

    I get FSD visualizations, but they're not nearly as clean as what MCU2 gets. Instead of orange traffic cones I get white sticks.

    MCU1 -> MCU2, FSD Computer with updated cameras on Legacy X. “Update BETA in route!”

    MCU1 version absolutely determines whether you get FSD or not. Plenty of people who have FSD HW with MCU1 and no FSD. I got "lucky" and got V10 before they stopped MCU1 FSD rollout. Others MCU1 folks got 3 strikes in 2 years and still can't get out of FSD jail. Upgrade to MCU2...magically...

    How to sue Tesla over historical claims

    Yup. They're making small claims wins even easier with all this verbiage and "wide-releases". I'll probably pull the trigger on the MCU2 upgrade and then do small claims shortly after, showing FSD v12 immediately available.

    Wiki FSD’s Earliest Adopters Still Waiting

    By your signature line, you might be thinking of HW3 not MCU2. AFAIK, all M3s had MCU2 from the beginning. Early M3 had AP HW 2.5 which was upgradable to HW3. The only people I know who got MCU2 for free were the ones who did it in arbitration or small claims.

    2022.8.10.17 2017 MCU1 AP2 HW3

    Guessing 2022.08.10.20 has the Recall fix in it. But I don't want to possibly lose FSDb by upgrading. On the second part, the letter gives the customer the judgement on how long they think Tesla should take to fix it. "If you believe that Tesla has failed or is unable to remedy this defect...

    2022.8.10.17 2017 MCU1 AP2 HW3

    Got notified for 2022.8.10.20. That's still a bit far off from the "2023.44.30 or later" that Tesla's Recall letter says I should be running. Lol. My worry is, I saw someone else said that 2022.8.10.20 didn't have FSDb, meaning if I upgrade, I might lose my super duper awesome V10 FSDb? /s

    How to sue Tesla over historical claims

    So I just got a notification for the 2022.8.10.20 update. (Running 10.15 with FSDb v10 right now) I'm wondering if I update to that, do I lose FSDb, since @m5james doesn't have it on that same version. That's kind of messed up if they take it away for a recall. I'm assuming this car will...

    I'm probably one of ten MCU1 folks that have FSD v10. Nobody is missing much. I'm also still running Feb 2022 firmware with no new updates in sight. Out of curiosity, I asked if I could get v12 and SC said my config is not compatible. I asked if I paid $2200 (after tax) for MCU2, would I get...

    Free Supercharging transfer opportunity

    All good. I'm looking for a reason not to buy a new car. Not sure I'll even bite this offer. We'll see where it goes.

    Wiki FSD’s Earliest Adopters Still Waiting

    Yup! I loved that feature. My car started slowing down before the car in front of me did. It gave me the feeling that if the guy in front of me was thumbing his phone, that my car would slow down before he slammed into someone.

    According to my screenshot, that's what it sounds like. Just isn't updated on the website yet. Don't pull the trigger until they confirm it!

    FSD AND FUSC Transfer Offer this Quarter?

    Man...I'm not going to do anything without all the transfers and a blue. That's a hard stop. Honestly, I hope the color change isn't free. Makes this an easy nope for me. Gotta have that BLUE!

    FSD AND FUSC Transfer Offer this Quarter?

    Well, now you don't have to choose! Free paint, FUSC/FSD transfer! Brings a Model X down to $67495 after CO and Fed tax credits. Includes FUSC/FSD. I really don't want to do this, but I'm having a hard time talking myself out of it.

    Probably won't get much more confirmation than this. Not until someone actually pulls the trigger. Free paint upgrade, and FUSC/FSD transfer. Now I just have to talk the wife into it. Ha. Effectively, for me, it's a $67k MS with FUSC and FSD in Blue. (7.5k + 5k state rebates) Someone...

    FSD AND FUSC Transfer Offer this Quarter?

    Doesn't seem like it's officially posted on the website yet. Would definitely be worth calling to see. If they don't do the transfer with the free paints, what's worth more to you. Free paint and tax credit or FSD?

    People are only getting confirmation from the sales folks. Sounds like the website hasn't updated yet. I'd hold off on placing any orders for a few days if you're trying to transfer FSD/FUSC.

    Poll: When will FSD V12 be in wide release?

    Yea I wasn't disagreeing with you. A lot of car companies have a level 2 system that can work as level 3, if they removed the nags and set usage limits. My Ioniq5 for example, does better auto steer (HDA2) and highway driving than my Tesla does. But they're also not advertising Full Self...

    Poll: When will FSD V12 be in wide release?

    Without getting too deep into the technical definitions of the SAE Levels (there's plenty of other threads to argue that mess), L3 is going to require Tesla assume some responsibility. I don't think they're willing to put the money where their mouth is, at least not for another several years.

    You MIGHT get FSD v10. But even that's not guaranteed.
  39. dbldwn02

    Poll: When will FSD V12 be in wide release?

    I agree. Keep in mind, If it ever goes level 4, it's going to be way more than $12k. Better to maybe buy the dip right now and if it goes level 4, stock sky rockets and then you can afford the $15k+ FSD.

    I assume you mean 24amps. There aren't very many shops that work on the Tesla high voltage system. You'll be lucky to find one. Also, they would have to be able to order a new charger from Tesla since there aren't any aftermarket chargers available. Best for you to just get a quote from...

    Depends on the service center in question...but generally yes. High school grads following what a computer tells them to touch. No critical thinking involved.

    Keyword: "basically" I took mine apart when Level 2 charging failed but supercharging was still working. Wrote a diy on it. The large gauge wires hit the orange contactor...orange contactor flips to bypass and sends the DC out the HV cables and bypasses the whole AC/DC conversion process...
