This is both a fantastic thing for not only Tesla but also EVs and the planet as a whole. However, it also just goes to show how abysmally behind the US is on its own raw materials and supply chain manufacturing.

Wow, the timing on this could not have been coincidental for me. Over the span of the last month I’ve had my gen 2 mobile connector randomly stop working for me. The light would flash 6 times which means a pilot signal malfunction (basically the charger can’t talk to the car and vice versa). I...

I'm already working on a 3D-printed license plate frame to put on my Model 3, lol! Getting a new and custom license plate in my state is a bit laborious and costs quite a bit of money, so I can't go down that route.

Thank you for stating this part in particular very clearly and in an easily understandable way. Now imagine where the U.S. EV industry could be in 2030 if manufacturers were able to continue to operate in a stable policy environment that consistently encouraged investment in these platforms. I...

I wouldn't say fail necessarily. Most FSD disengagements on HW4 at low speeds, I assume, are in parking lots and are mostly due to parking preferences and things of that nature, not because they are hitting things or would hit things. Nonetheless, I believe that Tesla is currently trying to...

USS is typically very short range; I don't know how useful that would be outside of very slow-speed maneuvers, for example, a parking lot. LiDAR and radar, by extension, have more usefulness in more areas, but both have different qualities in resolution and the environment they can "draw." For...

Can't say I blame you. I guess it's just the reality of living with a car that receives constant updates and hardware changes along with keeping up with all aspects of the company itself and the things you see on websites that report on it. I wasn't too different not long ago, but what I came to...

As a quick follow-up, I asked ChatGPT about this topic and here is what it had to say: https://chatgpt.com/s/t_6a74807b00f88191b6975f91b861f283 It's a lengthy read, but I think it gives directionally valid insight into what may be happening.

I don't mind redundancy, especially with a system where that is the expectation. My issue is that now having taken a ride in both a Waymo and a Tesla robotaxi in Miami, the robotaxi is significantly more humanlike and smooth than the Waymo. If I had to describe it, the Waymo felt almost similar...

No, not really. I have only noticed some speed limits that were incorrect previously now displaying the correct speed limit and some newer roads appearing properly on the map. Yes, basically exactly that. There isn't a way to force the update or to install it manually. You just have to wait...

I think you might be right. If there was even the slightest issue with the coolant system prior to this FSD version, there is a strong possibility that this update just pushed that issue over the edge enough to cause hardware failures. I'm sure the recent heatwaves also don't help, but I imagine...

After being on version 2025.44 for about 8 months, today I received the latest version of the navigation update... I thought I'd share here because I didn't see TeslaFi update it on their end and haven't seen an article about it. I'm really hoping this brings some much-needed improvements to the...

They should honestly be taking advantage of the dying AP/FSD components and start replacing those that have already been affected with HW4 instead of making customers pay for HW3 replacements. But that still leaves those that are on HW3 with subscriptions hanging high and dry. They need to...

I find it hard to believe that they haven't accounted for all these issues, especially the reversing issue, but I'm not really surprised. It isn't uncharacteristic of Tesla to release things while still having glaring issues that should have been addressed before release. The really sad part is...

Nope, I take major issue with this. I want max speed back because often what ends up happening is that FSD will want to "match the flow of traffic," but instead it sees one or two cars going over the speed limit and chooses to go 10, 15, or even 20 mph over the speed limit (depending on speed...

I really wish they would have put these kinds of side vents for rear passengers in all their models. One of my kids uses a car seat, and the air vents are so low in my Model 3 that I have to basically point the vents at the roof of the car to get it to hit them in the seat. This also often means...

Does anyone know if there is a crash test video on this model yet? I'd love to see just how safe that backseat is, especially with the recent Model X article we got where the rear was basically sheared clean off. As much as I love the car, I'd be really worried about getting rearended with...

Yeah, i cant lie, the new Y L looks really good and I'm loving all the extra goodies it gets along with the more comfort-focused suspension.

Not including the faster wireless chargers with cooling is a big miss in my opinion. Even if they didn't implement the higher charging speed, it would have been nice to see at least the cooling aspect implemented. I already have my wireless chargers disabled because they just work as a phone...

No, it works for home charging.
