88xxx, 12/26/2021 delivery. Now at 8k miles.

When parked exactly in the center of a striped parking space, the display shows that I'm CLOSER to the white line on the right than I am on the left. Also, when rolling in reverse, the passenger-side white guidance line on the screen doesn't seem accurate.

Can this be adjusted? Should I simply recalibrate the cameras?

Do you have FSD? I only have standard, and rarely if ever even see parking spot lines...
 
I wasn't very clear in my post.

My question is regarding the white guidance lines on the screen while in reverse. When I use them to park in a lined parking space, and park exactly where the lines guide me to park, I'm not in the center of the space, and also am frequently parked crooked. I can mentally make the adjustment, but others in my family might not be able to.

I'm asking if the white guidance lines, while in reverse, can be adjusted/calibrated? Are they tied into the other cameras?

You mean when backing into a spot vs pulling in?

I'm not sure calibration of the rear camera will adjust those lines.

Dodge has similar predictive curving lines when backing up, I use it to back into my garage, and find myself ~5" +/-. I have to use my mirrors for better accuracy. Tesla auto tilt mirrors during backup is a major plus for getting better alignment.
 
I don't have any issue with the backup camera lines. The left one is the one I used most for backing up our very narrow driveway for overnight charging. Using the line I can place the car within couple of inches (probably less) of where I want.
