For maximum safety and accountability, use of Autopilot features will be suspended if improper usage is detected. Improper usage is when you, or another driver of your vehicle, receive five "Autopilot Strikeouts". An Autopilot Strikeout is when the Autopilot system forcefully disengages for the remainder of a trip after the driver receives several audio and visual warnings for inattentiveness. Driver-initiated disengagements do not count as improper usage and are expected from the driver. Keep your hands on the wheel and remain attentive at all times. Use of any hand-held devices while using Autopilot is not allowed.

One Autopilot Strikeout will be forgiven for each 7-day period in which you do not receive any Strikeouts. Each time you receive a Strikeout, this timer will restart.

Autopilot features can only be removed per this suspension method and it will be unavailable for approximately one week.

Tesla Atari games, which are a part of Tesla Arcade, have been removed from vehicles with the AMD Ryzen processor.

This includes games such as Gravitar, Tempest, Millipede, Missile Command, Lunar Lander, Super Breakout, and Asteroids.

Tesla Atari games were the first games Tesla introduced with Tesla Arcade, which was initially called TeslAtari.

At this time this appears to only affect vehicles with the AMD Ryzen processor, but it may be removed from all vehicles in the future. While some of these games are still fun to play today, they likely didn't get much use given Tesla's more modern games such as Cuphead and Skyforce Reloaded.
