Firmware update 2018.14.2

Looking forward to this too for no other reason than 2018.12 has caused numerous MCU reboots which can be quite annoying.

I can say with certainty that 2018.10 doesn't have any of those reboot problems, nor does it have any of those crazy autopilot quirks that you folks with 2018.10.4+ are experiencing, or problems with that new fangled navigation, or issues with web pages loading so fast I can't concentrate..

But I'm not bitter or anything....

Installed 14.2 this morning (MCU2 100D). On my way to work I was in Autopilot and manually merged lanes by turning the steering wheel, which I normally do. I got a red alert on the IC with corresponding alert noise saying to take over immediately because i was drifting out of the lane. First time i've ever seen this.

I’m on 2018.12 and I see this occasionally. Exactly as you describe.

Yeah this happens once in a while on most recent updates. It's falsely triggering the "you just disconnected Autopilot but seem to not be making significant steering inputs" alert.

You can reduce it by making a more prominent/assertive lane change or some other input after disengaging autopilot. Doing a lazy drift over has a higher chance of triggering this reminder.

(I wish people wouldn't crash their cars after disengaging Autopilot...)

It's exactly what I have many times a day, and it's driving me crazy but Tesla keeps making up excuses and not telling me how to fix it. I managed to take a video of it, and it happens 3 times within 30 minutes. They've told me I'm not holding the wheel (You can clearly see me holding the wheel to do the lange change), told me it's a side collision warning (happens when there is nothing around), "not a bug, it's in the manual" (but fail to show me where it is in the manual). I'm getting so sick of it, as it's dangerous too - it scares me and in addition it turns my steering wheel a bit as well. Under no circumstance should it be doing that when I've taken it off autosteer manually by turning the wheel.

Try using your turn signal perhaps?

EDIT: So apparently I can't see/hear... :p

I’m on 2018.10.4 and get the MCU reboot (while driving) every other day and sometimes while parked/charging (in addition to those driving reboots)...
