    Does AutoPilot (AP) Do This On Your Model S

    Just curious to know if anyone out there thinks, as I do, that the Lane Correction is not as smooth as it should be (software version 2017.44). Now I love using AutoPilot on California freeways. Just one thing bugs me. When driving on an absolutely straight section of the highway, and not...

    V 8.0 Autopilot

    I've recently gotten the Ver. 8.0 update and fully expected the autopilot feature to be more responsive than it is.

    I sold my Model S to buy a new one specifically because of the "auto pilot" feature, and Elon's promise that soon (June or July) software will enable the auto-steering function of the car. I will not be too upset if the car only keeps its lane and does not automatically change lanes and pass...

    What steering mode do you use?

    Curious, what setting do you like and why? Driving home from the factory I thought "wow, this car is squirrely, I can hardly hold a straight line on the freeway!" I quickly put it on Sport and it felt much more stable. Today, I was looking at the Controls screen and discovered that I was...
