Tesla Motors Club

Good evening my new friends. I bought a used 2016 Tesla Model S - AP1 and the autopilot works for the most part. It doesn’t auto steer when enabled. On the dash, I can see that it detects the lanes.

I took it to Tesla Service and they said that the previous owner painted over the sensors and that it would be about $1,000 to replace all of the sensors. They claimed that was the reason why AP1 wasn’t working. I tried to have my friend walk around it and I could see that the sensors were working all the way around. Also, when I try to park my car in the garage, I can see that the sensors are working.

I even tried to take off all of the paint on the sensors as well. It changed nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions?
