Just picked up a New 2021 Model Y with Vision. Had some Questions.
My first Tesla so super excited with the drive and car overall. Buttery smooth acceleration and auto steer and TACC and lane keeping are great but had a quick question about blind spot.
1) Under what conditions is blind spot monitoring supposed to work and turn the lines red or the card red that is in my blind spot. I just cannot get it to work. Once it turned a car that was 2 cars ahead of me in the adjacent lane but not the actual car in my blind spot. Could this mean there is something wrong with the sensors or cameras and I should take the car in for service or have a tech come out? Or is the car undergoing some kind of calibration. I have 84 miles on the car total and it got delivered with 15 from the dealer when I picked it up.
It did go through an initial calibration when I picked it up yesterday and drove for a few miles. (Blue steering wheel bar filling up)
How is the blind spot supposed to work and is there a speed limit range (like lane keeping) where it’s supposed to work above 40mph? I see the lane marker turn red but that’s it. Is that how it works? No steering vibration or any audio visual clues? I keep waiting for a chime or the car in the blind spot area to turn red or both of those things but can’t get it to work or is this how it works?
Should I try a reboot?
Thanks!
