Downloading now. Hope voice control works and phantom braking stops.

A new one added ability to see third party charge stations.

no range improvement mentioned

 

[Trunk Gap]

^^ that’s what mine looks like

 

[drklain]

The third party charging stations was already realeased in one of the 2020.8 versions...only for the Bay Area in CA, and I think Europe and Canada...

 

[Trunk Gap]

Yes, it was the same release notes as the update I got a few days ago. But labeled 2020.12

 

[BigNick]

I just got 2020.8.1 last night and found another update notification for 2020.12 this morning.

Thanks for the memory degradation, Tesla.

Rory, u r first person I've seen who ever mentioned the crazy STOPS, it happens at least once a day backing up in parking lot.
It really jerks into Park.

Got this last night. It looked like it fixed the USB being full error bug in 2020.8.1. Let see if it still works the rest of the day.

 

[NoStinkingGas]

Nope. It didn’t fix it.

Finally got this update last night, my first since 2019.40. Had to call Tesla to get them to push it.

The texting feature is nice. Haven't noticed much else yet. I did get some spooky headlight flashing during the update though. For a second I thought someone had broken into my garage.

My usb worked fine, now after updating to 2020.12 I get that damn full error bug.

Jerking into park is a different thing. It means you do not have your seat belt on and are getting off the seat. It will automatically drop into Park when it notices those conditions.

Agreed. I have NEVER seen the crazy stop and jerk into park (going forwards or backwards), but I have a habit over 30 years old from the military...vehicle (car, plane, whatever) never moves one inch until a seatbelt is on, even if just backing it out of the garage.

That’s because your seatbelt isn’t on and you’re lifting your butt off the seat as you turn around to look behind you

Are the 3rd party charging station locations stored on Tesla's server so that they are downloaded along with the map data while you are driving? I.e. Tesla can add new stations and they become visible immediately, without car SW update.

Anyone notice power is improved with this update?

I have a awd s75d 2016 w ap2. I think the performance had gone down at one point with recent updates the car had felt sluggish on acceleration but now it’s improved back to how it used to be.

Well I don't know about that. You might be right, OR the same thing might be happening to you as what happened to me. I had mine in Granny mode (Chill) before the update and right after the update, it defaulted me back to normal mode which of course feels like more power. Maybe this change in default setting was unique to me, but not sure. It might be affecting others. Bottom line, for me, there is no noticeable change in power.

I find this super annoying and total micro-managing by the car! Party because the night rear view camera is so abysmal on late models, and because the mirrors are all dimmed, I often want to wind the window down and stick my head out to see for real what's going on 'out there'. Of course, the moment I do that, the car slams into park. Really annoying and pointless.

Americans don't reverse? 'Into the void!' .
