Did it know how much you’d been drinking?

Yes. She told me I had two much scotch the night before.

my car backed out parking space and stopped in the middle of drive way while I was working inside a building's basement where my cellphone had no signals. I was not even holding my cell phone.

Did you purchase a key fob for your Model 3? If so, did you have it with you when the car moved?

Love the way people keep quoting the OP and giving advice or asking questions as IF the OP was a REAL TMC member. The OP joined, made this 1 post, left and has NOT been back on the site since so in all likelihood will NEVER look at this thread again.

I belong to a laser forum where only owners can post, There is a multiple thousand $ buy-in to own one so zero trolls.
That has proven to be a remarkably effective filter to prevent any fool from wasting our time.

Problem is you weed out those people that have valid questions/concerns.

On long drives, when I put it on auto-nav, my Model-3 sings me a lullaby to help me sleep through out the journey while it drives to my destination and just before arriving it has a hot cup of coffee ready.

It's specific to the manufacturer, but mine is a toy compared to that. 40w CO2.

Who are all these people that join the forum, make one post with some ridiculous nonsense and then never reappear? It seems to be happening on a daily basis now.

Mine backed out by itself, caught on fire by itself, put out the fire by itself, and then read me a bedtime story. So there. Hmpph.

What, and it didn’t even tuck you in? You must have an outdated firmware.

Open your minds to the possibilities. I once returned to my 2015 Model S, which had a very simple version of summon, and it had moved partially out of the parking spot on its own. My best guess is that I had an unusual instance of "pocket dial" in which the pressures on my phone brought me into the summon mode (the Tesla App was likely already open) and pressures either on the FOB or the screen told the S that it was being commanded to move.

Most of us have done pocket dials before and called people on our cell phones without trying. I disabled summon and it never happened again. I also disabled my iphone's auto-on feature.

They're testing the waters on the mechanism that turns TMC posts into clickbait Electrek headlines which then propogate out to real media. Happens a lot. Likely we've already been duped by more sophisticated ones, this just happens to be laughably bad effort.

Anything is possible but the OP commented he didn’t touch his cellphone and had no signal, so I’d think that it’s not plausible. I don’t have the keyfob but would something like that be possible with an inadvertent press on the fob?

I wish I was witty. I want to write a song about guys wife, dog and car leaving him

Yes, the FOB by itself could have done it. If the center of the FOB was squeezed long enough to activate summon and then the pressure changed to the front or back (normally frunk or trunk) buttons, the summon feature could be activated. I would need to be relatively close for the activation to be done with the FOB, but I remember seeing lights on with the car, and so I was close when it happened.
