it depends on the definition of few...... how many can we consider few? I would say about 10ish in over 2 months I'm not really counting as they do not happen often enough to me.
I've got this from your other posts... I would be very upset if I had the same number of events.... However, it's only been 2 months for me who knows what the future holds?
It happening once in the space of 3 months I would say is a few. It happening once per drive is a lot.
The crazy thing is, 8-12 months ago my Autopilot was fine. I can only assume my older equipment can’t cope with the software they‘ve thrown at it. But even that doesn't make sense because the engineer arrived in a 2023 Model 3 and said his was un-usable.I've got this from your other posts...

I don't fly for a living, but have flown with autopilots, (and used to develop training for airline pilots) and agree that a real autopilot is far better than the Tesla's pretend autopilot. My Tesla is a 2024, just a couple months old, and it acts just like your car. Thanks for the great post!
In a way, I wish I have had a time when I could feel comfortable with the car driving itself, but in my shorter ownership, I have never had an inkling that any of the automated features work well. So, from my perspective, the car is just awful in many respects, and I don't have memories of positive experiences to buoy my spirits. Mine tried to kill me on my second day of ownership, while using FSD as it started to serve into the path of an overtaking truck going 20 mph faster than I was.
Nonsense. Pushing a button to make the wipers wipe once slowly does not deliver the safer desired high speed in a downpour, when fractions of a second count to restore the ability to see out the windshield. And no, people have not been pushing a button to make the wipers wipe once for "the past Century". Every other car built in the last 50 years has ergonomically designed, reliable windshield wiper controls. Tesla does not.
I was involved in developing some stuff that passed for AI in the first wave of investment in AI (early 80's. ) Then, the industry was loaded with jargon-spewing hucksters who were selling vaporware. The climate seems exactly the same now. Elon has been promising full self-driving by the end of the year every year, year after year after year, for about a decade. Replacing 300,000 lines of code (only a small part of which functioned well, because it was poorly written) with "end to end neural networks" has been presented as a panacea, and many people buy that, despite there being no evidence that doing so will fix things. The average Tesla customer may swallow Elon's claim that they are a software company more than a car company, but he has proven, year after year after year, that their software does not work.
We've had responses from Pilots, so maybe it's now time for the Surgeons.
Awesome!
Yes the difference between the old and new car is huge.
I’ve seen this a couple of times with EAP now. It does a single flash and then cancels it out but does seem to turn the indicators on. I think it then remembers it’s in the UK and it’s not allowed, also that we don’t need to go that way
Mine does it too - at very specific junctions on the M4 specifically. Not seen the car for a while now so may have changed
