Navigation Update 2020

[Tony Hoyle]

So.. just went out for a test run. They fixed some of the local roads... However the Tesla now thinks the speed limit on the M56 is 50 and the M62 40!

I've no idea how they get it that wrong.. but we're probably stuck with it for another year.

Hopefully puts the missing roads In and corrects the speed limits!

Hello, since last update the speed limits are a real mess for Belgium. In the previous version there were some errors but in the last version most of the speed limits for secondary roads are wrong. I really don't know where Tesla gets its information but here we are really screwed if we want to use the self driving features.

I don't understand we they can't just read roadsigns like other cars? My Merc has been faultless for 3 years in recognising speed limits, even all the brand new 20s in London and the seemingly endless "Upgrading to smart motorway" 50s that plague the country.

That's on the cards, apparently..

Even when a car can read road signs, the speed limits on the navigation map must be correct because here in Belgium all secondary roads are 70 unless a road sign indicates another speed limit.

Tesla are slowing working their way around the blocking patent.

Agreed, it's similar here. we have "national speed limit" signs but the national speed limit differs depending on road type.

What is the patent that is blocking Tesla? Who owns it?

I travelled a journey on Saturday where before the map update, the car knew it was a 40 limit. Now it thinks it’s 50 mph !!

Since 2020.28.2 and the map update my car now thinks the speed limit through my sleepy rural Hampshire village is 60mph. My 11 year old son thought it was hilarious that the Tesla would blast through the village at 60 if on autopilot. Can’t say I found it so funny!

Another navigation update incoming? I already had the recent one that this thread talked about, and now another is coming...

 

[drewpost]

Same here. New update coming in now

 

[Durzel]

Mine is stuck downloading. Have rebooted car, will have to leave it to see if it sorts itself out. Any idea if you get app notifications for map updates being ready to install?

I had to pick up father in law from A&E after a nasty fall (headbutted the patio!)
Road to the hospital 30mph fine. car agrees
Road immediately around the hospital 20mph. Car says 60mph!!!
I’m sure It’s been 20mph for at least 13 years. Never has been 60mph. Wake up Elon.

No, they just happen in the background when wifi is available

 

[NorfolkMustard]

When we got the previous 2019 navigation update, I seem to remember we got the same version again a week or so later, perhaps this is happening again.

 

[Durzel]

Mine has given up downloading the update to the update, it seems. Now it doesn’t acknowledge that there is one. Strange.

 

[bebbiXpress]

Seems to be a roll-back. Multiple sources in the German Tesla forum tff-forum.de reported that they had another "update" already being on navigation data 2020.32-12313 and then they found the data to be back on 2019.20-10482.

Why they roll-back the update is up to speculation.

 

[drewpost]

I can confirm that it’s a rollback. After being on the 2020.X variant that everyone seemed to have, after last night’s “update” I am on 2019.20-10482

What a palaver! I'm guessing they sensed possible liability issues with the several reports of random 60 limits through villages! Would it kill them just to get this right in a £50k car!?
