AP1 here. received my car in apr 2015 and all worked great until update to V8. Now all is broken and Tesla seems not to be able to get it fixed.
Many times my car slammed on the brakes with nothing ahead like described in earlier posts. or when following someone that pulled over on the left lane and slowed down, even once in front of a large 18 wheeler, a car pulled over on the left and mine break hard, I heard the screech of his tires while I reacted and stomped on the accelerator not to be hit from behind. My fault or not I dont care to be hit from behind much less be run over.
How about the drunkenness mentioned in a post earliest going up a small hill close to the top the car will weave from one side to the other clipping both lane makers and watch out it will do it again on the other side just after cresting.
At times leaving the roadway on the left or going over the center line by over a foot.
I always have the settings at 7 and never trust what it is going to do. I complained to Tesla several times, taken it into service... with the same response "NTF".
It has scared wife and I several time when it try to pull too close to a truck we are passing it like it is not there. Display show nothing.
Although I have learned to never let my hands off the wheal and my foot on the pedal ready, I tend to turn it off as I approach a situation I know it will misbehave. Not a "FEATURE" I would say is worth the money we paid in a car this expensive.
I would not mind to have V7 back on my car again, it did not do any of it.
Keep in mind that anything over 55 even with the setting at 7 and early warning set, the car will tend to break hard when it see another stopped ahead. Really, not worth the passenger scare so I don't wait for it to decide for me, I turn it off when I feel it should.... dreaming here... maybe it will learn when it should start slowing down.. HA HA HA.
Good luck and be smart, be safe. I sure hope ap2 is better with all the cameras and sensors, it better not do this, Ill be very disappointed with my new car about to arrive.
