Moderator note: Wording of thread title has been updated to more precisely reflect the issue. Apparently it looks like the Chinese regulators discovered that autopilot would engage automatically in some cases leading to unintended acceleration, and Tesla is fixing it through an update. If this...

I can't seem to find any way to actually email or message Tesla about an Autopilot/FSD issue. It used to be that for non-urgent stuff you could message them, and they'd get back to you some time later. But, that seems to have disappeared. If you're someone who prefers to write detailed bug...

Recently it's been discovered that Smart Summon builds its path data using OpenStreetMaps data. Or at least there is a lot of supporting evidence that suggests this. Like this post on Reddit Smart Summon paths use OpenStreetMap data for parking aisles, intersections, one-way directions...

Now that wouldn't be the actual title of the show, but I've been thinking a lot lately that a TV show centered around the adventures in an Electric car would be pretty cool. Where we put three people in a Model X, and had them tour parts of the US/Canada, Europe, or China. It wouldn't be a...

I'm starting to get really irked at the growing influence corporations have over our social network. The way corporations permeate their way through our network of friends. People we interact with online, and sometimes in real life. Some of it at first glance seems rather benign like the Tesla...

Currently on Arstechnica there is a 7-8 page thread talking about a recent accident involving a Model S that rear ended another vehicle while driving down I5. The driver didn't realize that she had turned off the adaptive cruise control, and assumed that the car would stop. The car didn't stop...

The massive interior space is so seductive to putting things back there that I was bound to fall for it. The problem is I'm an idiot, and I often end up scratching things because I fail to notice things. No moment of my life is safe. It's just how my life is, and i really shouldn't be allowed...

I don't know if this has been discussed before, but I absolutely detest the day time background on the Instrument panel. Instead of being a nice smooth grey gradient it's bumpy and horrible looking. I can't keep from noticing it on the V7 UI especially on the side with the energy meter. To me...

It's that moment those of us with Coil-Suspension dread. That moment when we realize "Oh, CRAP!!" we might not make it up a ramp. It happened to me at the Hotel Eastlund in Portland. As I was coming up the ramp I saw the edge with all the black marks of previous victims, and I don't know why I...

What are some of your favorite "idiot" moments? I thought I had read enough on these forums, and elsewhere about the quirks that I figured I'd be saved from them. But Nope. On day one I went to my garage to pull the HPWC cord out, but it wasn't turning white. I'd hit the switch and it would...

I just took delivery of a 70D, but on the way home I encountered a bothersome momentary noise that I don't know what it is. The noise sounds like a tire going over grooved pavement, and the first time it happened I assumed that was it. Then it started happening under really light right turns...

In an effort to remain complaint with HOA regulations I dragged myself to Lowes to get plants. Plants aren't very exciting, but I don't want to get fined so I do the bare minimum to stay under the radar. Do they know how much more exciting it is to spend a holiday riding an Electric Longboard...

On two occasions when replying to a post it lost my reply. The first time it happened I made sure from then on to copy my text just in case. So I could quickly paste a reply and not lose any work. But, of course I failed to do that and yet again it's lost my reply but this time it took me to...
