Damn kids, back in my day we got updates that knocked out cruise control entirely for "camera calibration" that never finished.

Where's the "I don't like it but I believe you" tag. Closest is Thumbs down but I don't disagree.

There is also the 'Placebo" affect especially concerning firmware updates. I have had AP2 perform 100% on one day's entire drive and the next day, nothing different but the day of the week" and AP2 struggled to do anything remotely normal for more than a couple of miles at a time. \i/

Disruption is hard.
Sounds as if everyone needs to provide a bug report:
"Your database for speed limits on this road is not correct, and I was almost rear ended when TACC was engaged and car slowed X MPH"
Complaining here, other than alerting those who have not received updates yet, while appreciated, does not help the cause at all...

I've sent "Bug report" every time I get on the express lanes. I've contact my SC -- who hadn't heard anything about it.
There has been no warning from Tesla about this bug to owners. It's insane. They have to know by now.
@JonMc Do you know someone who might care that the AP team is endangering drivers? (LOL - care)
Hit the voice command button and say "bug report". The car will say thanks on your dash display. Endorphins will be released.

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but it seems like the maps got a slight update. There is a 6 mile stretch of interstate that I use daily that has been incorrectly labeled as 60mph since I've owned the car. It is now showing 70mph and 65mph as it should be.
Its not the maps, Tesla switched from Garmin GPS to Tom Tom for the database. Tom Tom is way inferior to Garmin around me. This is why reversibles on 90/94 is no longer geotagged as an expressway. Other roads, such as Mannheim, 41 north of 94 (where Tesla Highland Park is located!!), and other divided highways with on/off ramps were limited to 90mph on past updates and now are restricted to +5mph. This is very unfortunate as it is a major regression that puts drivers in jeopardy when engaging AS without knowing. The solution, temporarily, is to use TACC only but we all paid for AS and making it less, not more useful, with updates is unfortunate.
I was told two weeks ago but it was only noticed a week ago and Tesla has provided some owners with some "super secret" link to provide feedback directly to TomTom.

Looking at the Firmware tracker I'm beginning to think this is not really for AP2 cars. Compared to the last big AP2 firmware release of 17.17.4, which was almost all AP2 cars, 17.24.28 is going mostly to AP1 cars. So why is this being hyped as a version to bring AP2 up to the same level as AP1?
I think Elon would responde something like: it would take exponentially longer to come to market if all the self learning had to be done in house or no one would have it at all for years until it's fully complete.
I, personally, still prefer a half ass solution that's improving than not having it for 3 years. Tesla as of right now has no real competition in Autosteer space.
It seems to only be going out to AP2 cars at service appointments and new deliveries. I received the update on my AP2 car from a service appointment on Saturday.
Try that argument in 3 months when Audi releases its Traffic Jam Level 3 system. Tesla better get its ass in gear.
Dude I question exactly that: do we have different performances because of camera positioning and dynamic cropping?
As I typed above this my s75 just completely swing into another lane on 24.28 on the highway on a straight lane. Oh boy
I think in an ideal world, they'd advertise more honestly that the software is complex and the rollout will be step-by-step every month or two, and take over a year to reach peak functionality.
But apart from that, I'm with you. I actually kind of like the excitement of getting an update every ~month and reliving the new car experience, at least with respect to AP performance and quirks. I actually traded out of an AP1 car because I was kind of disappointed that AP2 people were getting all the fun, and as an AP 1 person it was same old same old for months on end.
I agree. We should all want Audi and specially the intel w bmw partnership as fast as possible to fire up some people to code faster.

I actually want Audi and all other VW brands to go up in flames (along with other ICE manufacturers) but if there is a silver lining to their existence, let it be that it pushes Tesla to deliver on their "expectations."
I saw conflicting rumors about it being in the US, and it has a handover cutoff of 37mph or something around there.
Audi has been talking the "Piloted Assist" talk for years. We even heard this with the A4 and Q7 having substantial lane keeping abilities and that turned out to be an utter disappointing combination of a low-speed-two-follow-car ping pong and late accel/late braking mess. And 3 second hold when coming to a stop.
I'll believe these other systems when I see them. Would absolutely LOVE to be proven wrong, and would love for Tesla to have some on-the-road competition to motivate them to drive AP2's timeline more aggressively.
