    2023 Model Y no USS discussion, incl. Discussion of Tesla Vision Firmware

    That's true plus 10K miles of supercharging. I hope Tesla will eventually get this corrected. It was the same story with my M3 and the features did eventually get fixed.

    No recording for DashCam

    For me, I had to reformat FAT32 my USB 16G stick after the first Sentry upgrade. Second issue is that Sentry mode doesn't auto delete the files when your USB is full like the dashcam. For both issues the gray x on icon for dashcam went away. So I'm going to get a 64 or 128G soon. Irwin

    Only on for 4 days.. The cost was less than $20 bucks a set, so if it helps its worth it. They are installed on the lip where I scratched both front rims. For sure looks 100x better than having scratched rims and I don't plan on going to any car wash shops. Irwin
