Fix the speed profiles!. They are just brutal. Standard will hit 111 km/h on the highway and won’t follow the flow of traffic above this speed. Moving to Hurry mode results in driving well past 120 km/h which is a guaranteed speeding ticket. I want it to go 118 km/h but there is no happy medium. Also, with the mess created by inaccurate map data, there are areas where the car thinks the speed limit is substantially greater than what it really is. On one stretch of road I travel daily, the max speed is 70 km/h but the car thinks it 100 km/h and dropping the speed profile Sloth still means I’m travelling at 100, or 30 km/h above the limit and the only thing I can do is disengage FSD and manually drive until it reads a 70km/h road sign a couple of kilometres ahead before I can re-engage. 😡

🚨 What improvements would you like to see Tesla make with the next Full Self-Driving version? For me, it's going to be: ☑️ Better parking ☑️ More assertiveness at intersections ☑️ Better speed reduction when entering slower Speed Limit zones

In Quebec, the most popular SUV is the Honda CRV. You can buy that for $40,000, spend tens of thousands of $ in gas and maintenance over the years… Or you can buy a Tesla Model Y for $43,000, pay 8 cents per kWh, have the car drive by itself if you feel like subscribing to FSD. Faster, safer, cleaner, self driving. ts.la/guillaume52954

@congressdj @Reagan_Airport I wish there was an option to have the car alarm activate and a notification sent if the phone key is not in proximity and someone attempts to unplug the charge cable while the car is actively charging.

At 9am today, this couple systematically walked around my car, attempted entry, and forcibly tried to remove the charger (which has a ring lock, thankfully) at @Reagan_Airport. They can be seen touching the car, filming it, and looking underneath. It has been parked for 30 hours.

Yes, Tesla's OTA cadence for FSD is often weekly/bi-weekly in active phases. v14.2.2.5 (the one with the arrow regression) hit Feb 28; follow-up 2026.2.9.1 dropped March 6 with tweaks. Fleet logs billions of miles yearly—fixes roll fast once data highlights issues. Report in-car for priority.

8.5 Billion miles and FSD is still struggling with overhead arrows. Broken again on 14.2.2.5. (Even though 14.1.something figured this out finally) Reading or ‘identifying’ signs is part of driving…. Can’t just feel out a path that ‘looks correct’ @Tesla_AI

FSD (Supervised) already reads traffic signs, speed limits, route markers, and overhead indicators for navigation and lane guidance—it's core to its vision-only system. Regressions like this overhead arrow glitch in v14.2.2.5 happen during rapid iterations (billions of fleet miles training the model). Tesla fixes them in follow-up updates, often weekly. No exact ETA, but v14 shows major overall gains per recent tests. Keep reporting via the car for faster improvements.

I believe the Q2 target is completely aspirational and highly unlikely for exactly the reasons you highlight. We were told very recently that version 14.3 was expected to be released by December 2025 and that it was the final piece of the unsupervised puzzle and expected to provide a feeling of sentient behaviour. We are now in March 2026, nearly a full quarter past the expected deployment of version 14.3 and no sign of any meaningful progress with unsupervised Robotaxi rides let alone expansion of the Robotaxi fleet, both of which are well past the most recent timeline provided to us by Tesla. There is no question in my mind that the Tesla team is very much hard at work at solving autonomy and there are most certainly unexpected issues they are dealing with that resulted in the deployment timelines not materializing. Fully agree that Tesla will most likely continue to focus on v14 development and once complete, will look at deploying a lite version to HW3. For these reasons, and the current delays in delivering on previously communicated targets, I don’t believe it is likely we will see a lite version in Q2, but would be pleasantly surprised if we do.

📆Will HW3 actually handle V14 Lite by June? Here is what has to happen first 👇🏽 There’s a lot of conversation around the HW3 "V14 Lite" release, but many seem to be overlooking the most critical part of Ashok’s statement from the Q3 call. The target isn't just "Q2"… the phrasing was: "Once the V14 release series is fully done." For those of us on HW3, that’s the real metric to watch. In Tesla software terms, a "series being fully done" usually means the main architecture has reached a stable, wide-release state on the flagship hardware with no major regressions left to patch. Only then does the optimization work for the "Lite" version usually hit its stride. Essentially, V14 needs to be a "solved" product before they can trim the fat to make it fit comfortably within the compute constraints of our HW3 cars. Ashok mentioned Q2 2026 (April–June) as the probable window, but that timeline is clearly tethered to how smoothly the V14 rollout goes. If you’re still on HW3 like I am, do you think that Q2 timeline feels realistic, or are we looking at later in the year? 🎤 “Once the V14 release series is fully done, we are planning on working on a V14 Lite version for Hardware 3, probably expected in Q2 next year.” - Ashok Elluswamy (Tesla's VP of AI/Autopilot Software) during the Tesla Q3 2025 earnings call.

I have to respectfully disagree with you. That’s a totally wrong assumption in my opinion. You are in essence suggesting Tesla meant to add a caveat that customers must take possession of the lower cost model by the end of this month for the FSD transfer offer to be valid and they just forget to state that condition when they opened up the orders. Here’s why this makes no sense to me. They added this condition after the fact by specifying that in addition to having to place the orders by March 31st, customers must also take possession of their lower cost Cybertruck by the end of the same month (March 31st). Want to guess how many people will qualify for this? 0. As in ZERO. This version of the Cybertruck wasn’t even in production at time of ordering and won’t even be available until summer of 2026 at the earliest. Don’t believe this? Grok does! x.com/i/grok/share/0… Offering customers the ability to purchase the lower cost Cybertruck with an offer to transfer FSD for orders placed by March 31st, and then changing that offer after the fact by adding a condition that no one will qualify for because none will be built and delivered within the next 3 weeks is disingenuous as best! So if they meant to this as you suggest, this becomes a completely different conversation. And let’s not forget they won’t even honour those orders that were placed with the FSD transfer offer before they added the condition of possession by March 31st thereafter. Again, this is a condition that is impossible to meet for 💯% of customers who placed orders for this vehicle, that is now showing delivery dates into 2027 and there is not a single sign of a VIN being assigned nor a delivery window before March 31st for ANY orders placed thus far. Their FSD transfer offer is a complete red herring.

@SMeitin @MobofJoggers Yes, I personally know that Tesla didn't mean to do that. Wanna know how? Because they took it away lol If they meant to do it, they would have kept it ambiguous instead of clarifying and giving people their money back. Where's your proof that they did it on purpose?

So you personally know what Tesla didn’t mean for their customers to do? Thanks for sharing the insight. Perhaps they should have thought to inform their customers before they hit the order button that their offer to allow the transfer of FSD was conditional to the vehicle being produced and delivered before modifying the conditions AFTER people placed their orders, to add a condition that the vehicle must be built and delivered by a deadline that the overwhelming majority of people who placed the orders will not qualify for. Don’t think this is case? Just look at the projected delivery dates. Shocking how people are vainly attempting to defend this unethical behaviour but not so shocking that so many customers are completely pissed off about Tesla changing the FSD transfer conditions AFTER orders were placed, and their perception of being duped.

@SMeitin @MobofJoggers You didn’t get screwed, you rushed to take advantage of 2 competing offers that were never meant to be stacked on top of each other in hopes to find a loophole for FSD transfer 1+ year after they end the promo entirely.

Yup. Great loyal customers like those of us who purchased FSD with on their HW3 car, with the promise that FSD was around the corner, and that we had the hardware fully capable of full self driving. Remind me again how well did that work out? So the answer is just sit around and wait (already been a year) for a software “lite” version that will give us full self driving? Or maybe a hardware upgrade but hey, that may or may not come at the tail of this year or later. And oh…..we should be thanking the gods that Tesla allowed us a short, time bound offer to ditch our cars and fork out more money for an AI4 model that may (or may not) one day be capable of full self driving (as in unsupervised). Lesson learned indeed

Call me what you want. Tesla’s clear written offer to transfer my FSD, published on the website, shown on the order screen in the app, and confirmed by a sales advisor, was the deciding factor in my ordering a Cybertruck Dual Motor. Tesla should honor that offer. Not because I am demanding “free stuff,” but because they made the offer. Being told to “move on,” instead of people asking Tesla to honor its word, is disappointing. Yes, some people ordered a Cybertruck hoping to land a HW5 truck in 2027, or treating it like an option. I understand Tesla’s concern about that. But even if 30,000 buyers transferred FSD, the financial impact would be negligible for Tesla. The cost of honoring their word is far smaller than the cost of appearing not to. I hope Tesla is staying silent because they plan to allow FSD transfers after all. Because honoring a clear promise should be the obvious choice. Disappointing.

I think it is more than just the additional $3 a day. It’s about integrity or a lack thereof by Tesla. We should not justify this behaviour, especially from a company like Tesla. I’ve seen so many influencers suggesting this complete about face by Tesla doesn’t affect a lot of people and it’s ok to just pay the additional subscription fee. I think it just adds insult to injury for those in this situation. I have never seen a Tesla service advisor able to say sure, this makes sense so I’ll allow your FSD transfer when Tesla explicitly says you no longer qualify. Maybe I’m wrong but based on the chat screenshots that many have posted on X with service advisors, they were incapable of doing the right thing for these customers.

@AIDRIVR that’s a pretty niche situation to be in, if someone’s in that situation, they should just talk to a service advisor about it, but they obviously wouldn’t care about paying three dollars a day to use FSD in a really cool Cybertruck

after this, I will shut up. just please: put yourself in the shoes of a customer that: - bought Model S/X in 2022/2023 (~$140k for a Plaid), or even 3/Y at ~$60-75k - paid an additional $15k for FSD (12 ½ years worth of subscription at current pricing) - doesn't have access to latest FSD versions because HW3 (missed cutoff point by a few months) - can't justify upgrading to HW4 because they’re deeply underwater on their current car - see $15k FSD purchase option drop by nearly half, even though Tesla said it was only going to get more expensive - see a great deal on a Cybertruck with "Free FSD Transfer for loyal customers!" advertised right below the Order button. press "Order." - aren’t chronically online, so miss Tesla quietly changing the terms retroactively - show up (or are about to show up) for delivery in June only to be told “sorry, we’re not honoring that” - then went online to figure out what happened… and got hit with “stop wanting things for free!” these customers exist, and will never buy another Tesla again.

There is another very cost effective option that would enable you to more than double your charge speed if it is allowed in your area. It would involve checking with an electrician to determine if that outlet you are using is on a dedicated 15 amp or 20 amp 120 volt circuit, and if so, if you can ask if they can change the outlet to a NEMA 6-15 (240 volt), replace the 120 volt 15 amp breaker in your panel with a 2 pole 240 volt 15 amp breaker and use the existing wiring where the Black (line) stays the same and gets connected to L1 on the new outlet to the 240 volt breaker, Ground stays the same from the new outlet to the ground in the panel, and the white neutral in the panel gets moved to the 240 volt breaker's 2nd pole and connected to L2 on the new outlet. Our electrician used red electrical tape to cover the white wire to be compliant with code and to signify that is now a hot and no longer a neutral. That basically converts the outlet from a 120 volt 15 amp to 240 volt 15 amp without having to change any wiring and you can order the Tesla 6-15 plug/dongle from the Tesla Shop for the mobile connector. When using the new wire for the mobile connector and plugging into the new 240 volt outlet, you are going to get much faster charging at a fraction of the price of having to purchase a Wall Charger and changing the electrical wiring. You won't get the same charge speeds as a level 2 Wall Charger but it will reduce your charge time by more than half compared to the 120 volt setup. Just need to set the charge rate in the car or on the Tesla App for your home location to 12 amps (80% of max rated circuit) and as long as an electrician confirms this is acceptable setup and meets code in your area, you are good to go!

@mikepat711 @Tesla_AI And for those of us who live in areas of winter weather, let’s not forgot the frequent red hands auto disengagement due to occluded cameras, with the root cause being a lack of camera washers. This is something I am absolutely certain will never get fixed with software alone.

Ya. That’s what sucks. The charge icon only shows Tesla destination/supercharger locations. My only workaround is using an app on my phone like Plugshare to find a non Tesla chargers. Also tried entering the word charger in navigation, hitting enter, and that will bring up all chargers around me but the problem with this is you don’t know if it’s a level 2 charger or fast DC.

I can either select the point on the map and navigate to it, or enter the name of the charger vendor (Circuit Électrique” and it will list the locations and then I select the one I want to navigate to. Here’s an example of what happens when I find one on the map and select that location.

Does anyone specifically in Canada know if third party charging works with preconditioning yet? Like if you're navigating your Tesla to let's say an evgo CCS charger, does it precondition? Or are we still doing the tell the car you're going to a supercharger and then just actually go to the third party?
