Lighted vanity mirrors, they actually were promised.
Retrofitted to all Model S's no less.
It is not the same stalk at all. Model 3 stalk seems to be missing the entire rotating control that operates the wipers on Model S. There is the button, though, that seems to allow some wiper/washer operation without the touchscreen.
There is a sensor in all AP2 cars for light and humidity, so presence of a visible sensor in that area is not news in itself. Question is: Is Model 3 sensor just that same/similar or something more - so far seems unknown...
I guess there is no news on getting Auto Rain Sensing capabilities.... Just bought an X and had our first rain. What a surprise to be missing this feature. Moved from Lexus which had no issues with working correctly...
Is there a formal way of requesting features to Tesla?

Tap the washer button repeatedly and scream "f************************ck!!!"
J/K. Sorry to say you have to be patient like everyone else here. If you have the time you could put in a formal request to your local SC, but I doubt that would do anything good. Seems Tesla is struggling with the neural nets / software (vision, i.e. camera, based rain sensing - not exactly off the shelf tech.)
Tesla (even Musk) have been pretty quiet about AP recently.
That could mean we are getting close to a major announcement (version 9.0 software?).
Or, it could mean they're stuck - and it's taking much longer to make the next incremental improvement...
Customers know automatic wipers aren't working - so there shouldn't be any harm in Tesla admitting this - and letting us know if they believe they'll ever get it working...

Tesla has removed auto wipers as a feature of the cars since at least June 2017. That's not a good sign nor should new buyers even expect the feature since its no longer listed.

Actually @croman I think it was removed in October 2016, see this post:
Rain Sensing Windshield Wipers

Good point - can you even do Full Self Driving (FSD) without Full Self Wipers (FSW)?
There's a 0% chance that FSD will be released without automatic wipers.
There's an "official" way of sending feedback: voice control -> "note that <feedback here>". Of course, nothing says they actually review that feedback.

If Tesla is still using Hella as their supplier perhaps it is all three functions in one (rain/light/humidity). http://www.hella.com/microsite-electronics/assets/media/08_rain_light_sensor_gb_druck.pdf

I’m sorry but I recall this being a listed feature under EAP. It’s talked about in threads that date back to January...
HW2: Still no rain-sensing wipers. No Auto-high beams
I emailed Tesla on Monday and they responded yesterday...
How should I respond? Seriously anyone want to take a stab at this I’ll copy and paste it in the reply.

Still shows up in a user manual for a Model S picked up on 12/31/2016. Of course, this doesn't mean that they will deliver, just stating that we bought out last MS then and were told auto-wipers are coming very soon.

You must have faith in the Great One. It's all part of his grand plan. Tesla's driving in FSD mode will be distinctly recognizable by the wipers on high speed in any weather - I'm sure a patent is in the works.

I guess you the auto-wipers already work as designed in the tunnel.
