2019 Tesla Model 3 FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE,LANE DEPARTURE

With the latest update of V12.3 FSD, the full self driving cannot predict the obstacles clearly, resulting in am incorrect left turn manuever, running over a central divider curb, and damaging tires. Not sure, what could have happened, if a human was standing there instead!

Ever since Tesla updated my vehicle to 2023.44.30.8, the autopilot has become effectively unusable. It now nags and beeps at me whenever I am not looking straight ahead. It is ridiculous that Tesla has ruined one of the best aspects of my car due to (ostensibly?) NHTSA pressure. Please allow their previous driver attentiveness system with the steering wheel to be reinstated. It is so miserable to have my car nanny camera flip out on me every time I look anywhere other than straight ahead. At the very least, every other manufacturer should be forced to have just as annoying a system if my Tesla had to be ruined. Its wrong to punish every Tesla owner because some people misused autopilot.

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. The vehicle made a turn left and found itself in a lane that was coned off. Traffic was queuing in the adjacent lane. The vehicle edged forward into the closed lane and waited to join the lane to the right. Even though other drivers were giving way, the vehicle failed to move. The driver took manual control in order to complete the manoeuvre.

Was using autopilot feature on the vehicle on thanksgiving. Was going about 75 miles per hour when suddenly autopilot failed and the car lost control. I had to quickly regain control of the vehicle before I crashed. I took photos of the error messages and reported the incident to tesla via the tesla app. Typically autopilot fails gracefully and provides notifications. I’ve never seen it fail with no warning and loss of control of the vehicle.

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. The vehicle approached a busy intersection to turn left. Although drivers were giving way to the vehicle, it failed to complete the turn in a timely manner. The vehicle edged forward and then rapidly made the turn at 12mph . The driver had to take over as the FSD made the turn too sharply and too close to a bollard. There is Go_Pro video here https://vimeo.com/738682868/d5b572a69d

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. Cruising at 30+ mph the vehicle was late to slow down ahead of a left turn junction. The vehicle then cut across the junction as it was moving too fast to make the turn correctly. There is Go_Pro footage of the incident here... https://vimeo.com/738674524/5db5854102

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. After successfully crossing a junction the vehicle accelerated too quickly on a narrow residential road with another vehicle approaching from the opposite direction. The vehicle was travelling at 27 mph when it was forced to brake hard. There is Go_Pro footage of the incident here... https://vimeo.com/738677992/0a3c3d4713

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. The vehicle stopped short of a STOP sign at a junction then slowly moved to the middle of the junction, failing to make a right turn. After manual re-routing the vehicle brakes for no reason other than a pedestrian is close by. The vehicle then fails to make a left turn successfully, cutting the corner.

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. While FSD Beta was engaged, the driver approached an intersection, the FSD stopped correctly to yield to oncoming traffic on a one-way street. The vehicle was travelling across the intersection according to its navigation. There was also a cyclist ahead of the Tesla at the intersection. As the cyclist entered the intersection, the Tesla followed and attempted to travel around the cyclist to complete the manoeuvre and continue travelling straight ahead. However, the Tesla then deviated from its course and instead travelled left at the intersection, travelling the wrong way on one-way street, causing the driver to perform an emergency stop and reverse out of the dangerous situation. The Tesla appeared to panic at the presence of the cyclist when attempting to travel around it, and then headed directly into oncoming traffic while travelling the wrong way up the one-way street.

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. While FSD was engaged, the driver approached a road closure sign due to road works occurring. Ignoring these well-marked signs, which clearly said 'Road Closed', the Tesla proceeded past these signs until the driver had to perform a stop to prevent the vehicle from colliding with the road works.

My friend was driving the vehicle (Tesla Model 3, 2019) while Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode was engaged. The FSD Tesla makes a left turn at an intersection on a protected left turn, but slows down considerably just before the traffic lights - which did not apply to the Tesla but rather the traffic from the opposite side of the intersection - after making the turn, stopping in the middle of the lane. The driver disengages and accelerates to complete the manoeuvre, to avoid a rear collision. The Tesla may have mistaken the red traffic light showing for other traffic as one it should pay attention to, almost causing a collision and displaying the inadequacies of its vision and cameras.

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. The vehicle was travelling at approx 35 mph - too fast for a narrow and winding road. The vehicle crossed the central line into the oncoming lane and a moment later veered towards the right - nearly making contact with the curb and causing a collision. The driver had to take back control of the vehicle. A link to the clip of the incident can be found below: https://vimeo.com/731689228/485219aa71

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. Travelling on a narrow and winding road the driver had set the max speed to 20 mph. After re-engaging FSD mode the Tesla “reset” the max speed to 35 mph. Clearly too fast for the road conditions, the vehicle had difficulty negotiating the road safely and almost veered into the wrong side of the road. A link to a clip of the incident can be found below: https://vimeo.com/731691467/e336068d60

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. The vehicle was stationary at a “no right turn on red light” intersection. In spite of the sign, in FSD, the vehicle took the turn in “autopilot creeping forward” mode, making an illegal turn on a busy intersection. Please see a link to a clip of the incident below: https://vimeo.com/731427985/e4d022bdea

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. The vehicle approached an intersection, on a bend in the road, at more than 30 mph and braked to a near halt whilst in the middle of the intersection. The speed limit is signed at 15mph. The vehicle then proceeds in FSD mode and takes another corner 5 to 10 mph in excess of the speed limit of 20 mph.

1. Phantom braking while on autopilot in a freeway (I15, I215, etc) 2. Disengaging auto pilot when it is making a curve in a freeway to another freeway (San Diego freeway)

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. The Tesla fails to slow down when approaching a curve in the road resulting in taking the corner far too quickly, despite the fact that there is a sign by the road warning drivers to slow down to 15mph. Tesla also failed to recognise the change in speed limit due to a blind turn in the road approaching, the car continued to go at a rapid speed (30mph) and even turned left when the road curved toward the right, leading to the driver taking control to steer the car back on path. During the turn, the Tesla was engaged in FSD Beta 10.12.2 and crossed the dividing line into the opposite lane. If another vehicle was approaching this incident would have resulted in a collision as the Tesla strayed into the path of oncoming traffic.

My friend was driving my car (a Tesla Model 3) at the time of this incident. At the time of the incident the Tesla’s Full Self-Driving Beta system (version 10.12.2) was active. The Tesla fails to slow down when approaching a series of sharp bends in the road resulting in taking the first corner far too quickly. The posted speed limit according to the sign was 15 mph, however, the Tesla was travelling at approximately 30mph, double the posted speed limit. The Tesla therefore drives into the turn too widely and tries to steer into the oncoming traffic lane, forcing the driver to intervene quickly to correct the manoeuvre and reposition the car back into the lane. During the entire incident, the car was travelling, autonomously, at 25mph. Please see below a link to a short video showing this incident: https://vimeo.com/720341558/004264b711

I was driving on Tesla “autopilot” and instead of noticing the exit from freeway , the car thought it was still on freeway as it had to take the next exit, it just on full speed went into the exit, it did not break or slow down and just before the sharp exit turn on 65 mph it just disengaged autopilot with message “system error “ luckily I was aware and was able to avoid a major crash . If I was a second late, the car would have gone through the road barrier. I’m sure if I had a crash Tesla would find reasons to blame me for the crash even though it was its software. Autopilot is junk piece of software with little regards to customer safety. I am not sure how something like this is even allowed to be sold and used on public roads

Even after the firmware update which was supposed to have FSD beta come to a full stop, the car still does not come to a full stop. The car slows to a speed of around 0.5 mph at a stop line with a stop sign and continues on if it is clear, but only comes to a full stop if it believes it needs to yield to other vehicles. Watching videos of other vehicles demonstrating the capabilities of FSD beta with the latest firmware version show the same behavior.

While driving with Tesla auto-pilot enabled, the car experiences phantom braking. This has happened multiple times already. The car will break unexpectedly for no good reason even if there is no obstruction on the road. The problem typically happens in the freeway at high speeds and presents a huge safety risk to the car occupants and the car behind since it increases the risk of a rear end collision. The problem is pretty common, a simple search on internet of Tesla Auto Pilot Phantom braking will yield many results. The problem started getting worse after Full Self Driving Beta was enabled around January 2022. When the problem happens, the car beeps loudly and breaks really hard.

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. At approx 20 mph the vehicle entered a stretch of road works with temporary signage and cones. The vehicle performed an emergency stop for no reason to the frustration of other road users. The driver had to take control of the vehicle. There is Go_Pro video of the incident here. https://vimeo.com/736110202/bcedc1c516

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. At 10mph the vehicle attempted to change lanes whilst there was another vehicle in the other lane. If the driver had not intervened there may have been a collision or the other vehicle would have to brake hard to avoid contact. There is Go_Pro video of the incident here. https://vimeo.com/736107290/2a01155c84

My friend was driving the vehicle (a 2019 Tesla Model 3) while it was engaged in Full Self-Driving Beta 10.12.2 mode. At 25 mph the vehicle veered across two solid white lines and into the cycle lane. There is Go_Pro video of the incident here. https://vimeo.com/736112946/2d0d7a4ed3

After getting a shingles vaccination and eating lunch, a vaccine side-effect suddenly caused me to become extremely sleepy while driving. But AutoPilot drove me safely to my destination parking lot where I took a two hour nap. AutoPilot saved my life and car from an accident.
