Spent two weeks on the road. Barely ever used autopilot as you can’t do anything normal with it it engaged. Dipped my chin slightly to take a bite of a wrap and it shut off and told me I wasn’t driving safely. It’s completely useless now and a waste of money. Did notice though that if I wore sunglasses, it was less prone to shutting off.
Autopilot as a driver safety aid is worse than a normal car with normal cruise. At least in my old Ford, I don’t have to worry about it shutting off driver aids just because I took a bite of a wrap.
Could not shut off the windshield wipers. Even after going into settings and changing it from Auto to Off wouldn’t fix the issue. The wipers would start back up about 10-15 minutes later.
I’d say we put on about 3500 miles this trip. We only used Superchargers and they were plentiful and located in areas where one could go to the bathroom and grab a coffee.
The car is very comfortable on the highway. The cruise control is almost as annoying as Autopilot. When you come up to a slower vehicle and have to wait to pass, it takes the Tesla 10 to fifteen seconds to come back up to the set speed once you’re in the free lane.
I’ll be looking for another EV soon and it probably won’t be a Tesla unless these issues are fixed in a few years.
