The probe was described as a preliminary evaluation that could escalate into a recall if the agency finds problems that threaten public safety.

Who needs a recall when you can just push a patch to the self-drive software wirelessly?

AI, self driving cars & EV’s are in their infancy. What else can be expected? The craze for new technology is often crazy, literally.

I want nothing to do with any of it until all is proven safe and economical. Those that jump at it are fools.

Never buying an EV or going into a self driving car.

Tesla’s “Full Self-Driving,” or FSD, feature, which is intended to complete driving maneuvers while requiring the driver to keep paying attention

Then it's not full self-driving, is it? If I have to pay attention, I might as well just drive the thing anyway.

"X" is absolutely FULL of videos this week by people bragging in amazement about how incredible Tesla v14 "FSD" (Full Self Driving) mode is. The videos show how a Tesla backed out of an intersection when the light changed to red (it had gone too deep into the intersection, then the light turned red), how it navigated an owner's long, twisty dirt driveway, how it self-parks in garages. I guess they forgot to mention it plays bumper cars on the streets. Of course, the problems being investigated are no doubt earlier versions.

Tesla releases FSD v14, first major update in a year, here’s what it can do

Great at starting stuff but quickly loses interest. Must have others to finish his inspiration or brain farts.

Too lazy to drive? Call an UBER/LYFT. Don’t expect the car to do it for you.
