Hi all, my first post and I'm hoping someone can help me with this! I took delivery of a new Model 3P a little over a week ago and the Autopilot/TACC is driving me nuts ... is there a way to turn the "TA" feature off and revert to a normal cruise control?
I do around 25,000 miles a year, my commute is 45 miles each way mostly motorway driving so I rely heavily on cruise control, with previous cars I just engaged the cruise and typically sat at 60mph chilling to some music or even an audiobook, definitely relaxed and stress free. With the Model 3 once I engage the autopilot it becomes a battle of wills between the car and me!
I've adapted to holding my foot an the accelerator while I select the speed I want, but then every action that involves anything more than an empty road causes unpleasantness in the drive, even nausea inducing at times. If I move out to overtake a vehicle the speed dips by a couple of mph then picks up again, If I allow it to catch up with a vehicle in front it slows to that vehicle's speed but then oscillates in speed as if hunting. I've also had it self-apply the brakes quite heavily in situations where realistically there's no hazard present, it's become a plainly stressful experience!
Any thoughts?
