Erroneous FCW alerts w/ FSD Beta 10.3?

[blecchus_rex]

I received the 10.3 update early this AM (having been hovering just above 99 for the last couple weeks this was my first access to it), and have had a very rough initial experience of it. Among the problems encountered on my first out and back trip:

• Multiple scenarios (~8-10) where I needed to take control or autopilot disengaged after 10 or so miles of suburban driving.
• Multiple audible indicators for FCW upon approaching / proceeding through 3 successive lights. All three were false indicators. Subsequently I was unable to engage autopilot.
• Thinking perhaps a clean slate might be in order, I rebooted prior to making the return leg. The vehicle still would not permit me to engage autopilot.
• But it did yield at least 3 additional erroneous audible FCW alerts. The first came as I proceeded through a light that is not yet active (it’s not powered on and the lights have covers on them) and then ~10-30 seconds later while driving normally on a divided state highway w/ little to no surrounding traffic.

So I think I may be in the penalty box for strikeouts.... alas the FCW stuff was totally erroneous! I did press the video feedback button after one of these occurrences and have mailed fsdbeta twice but nothing back yet (not unexpectedly).

So anyone else seeing this?

YES!! I just had it installed and was really excited to get to test it out. My first drive went fine, but then I got home, parked it and then tried to leave again about 15 minutes later and the whole Autopilot system is jacked up.

• Won't allow me to use FSD Beta in the city anymore (Cruise and Auto steer unavailable)
• Gives me erroneous Forward collision warnings constantly when driving that are not correct
• If I turn OFF FSD Beta I can use Autopilot in City and on highway, but it will disengage within a minute or too for absolutely no reason.

This is HORRIBLE. I can't even drive my car normally without the Forward collision alerts going off now. I tried a hard sleep for 5 minutes (didn't work), as well as a reset and that didn't work either.

A lot of people with issues. I’m sure they will send out an update to fix this as soon as they can.

 

[pjnashville]

Same issue here

 

[leepoffaith]

What's odd for me is that my first drive out it did fairly well. No FCW, FSD worked great and everything was fine. It's only once I got home and parked that it started having issues. I think I had sentry mode on for home so anyone with FSD Beta that is working well you may want to turn off sentry mode for now. I think it could be the issue

Yes same exactly for me. They’ll fix it soon. It’s part of being in a beta.

 

[emergencyit]

Having the same issues! Even worse it did an emergency stop on the freeway going 90 with autopilot turned off.


Hope it gets fixed soon as I'm afraid to drive it with my kids

Everything above is consistent with my own experience this morning. I just want to echo what is said for re-enforcement but will spare you a repeated description.

Yes, I expect so... my worry being that my experience might have been an unqualified edge case and some automated logic was about to boot me from FSD after being put into the naughty corner after 1 drive! it's reassuring to see it's not isolated behavior and likely to capture Tesla's attention.

 

[TheMurph544]

Same here. First drive had no issues and now no autostear is available and getting forward collision warnings anytime someone is in front of me. It has to be a bug with 10.3.

 

[FishSlapper]

I couldn't ever engage autopilot or cruise control. I had to just drive around manually. I tried all the tricks I know for resetting, but nothing worked. I got a ton of FCWs even for cars that were 10-20 lengths ahead of me and speeding away from me.

I was able to engage AP on the highway, but once it exited, it freaked out and told me to take over immediately.

A little frustrating I didn't even get to try it out.

Same experience here. Haven’t been able to engage autopilot at all since installed. Several FCWs behind other vehicles at normal distances.

Has anyone tried a camera calibration?

I haven't, but I read another thread that people did that and it didn't help. If you try it let us know if it helps!

Mine as well. Maybe re-cal cameras.

 

[T-Blaine]

SAME!!!! Hopefully they will figure it out soon! Frustrating!

 

[tljdesign]

Those with this issue: what model & year do you have?

Mine is a 2019 Model 3 LR AWD

 

[leepoffaith]

2021 Model Y Long Range (Tesla Vision Version)

 

[T-Blaine]

Same exact issue here... 2020 Model Y. First drive out it worked great.... came home and tried to go back out and it will not engage!! Very frustrating! Tried resetting and everything I can think of! Anyone figure out a fix???

Same. Worked on the way out - blowing & standing leaves caused the only real problems. got back in the car to return and autopilot & cruise were unavailable on surface streets but worked on limited access.

one question for the folks that have the beta now - can you revert to the old style Autopilot like we could with the traffic light beta?
or even, would you want to?
