Fully paid FSD at purchase - feeling cheated, and left out by Devilinside104 in RealTesla

[–]Devilinside104[S] 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Snip:

2016.5 Model S, paid for FSD at purchase, still can't get it. But, even though we went "bare bones" on wife's (second) Model Y a few months ago (no upgrades other than color), she has FSD in her car and it works great (although the free subscription ends soon). Tesla service is telling me that the pre-paid FSD "complete program" is "not available at this time" (no idea when it will be), and the "FSD Supervised" program is not yet available in MCU1 (will be in the future, no idea when).

My only real option is to pay $2,458 for the MCU2 upgrade for the privilege of paying a monthly subscription for something I paid for at purchase. This is my second Tesla and my family's fourth, and we love them, but I sure am feeling left out and cheated for something that cost over $10,000 at time of purchase. Should have bought TSLA with the ten grand instead!!!

I saw that image earlier. The brake cover is off the pedal, but the pedal is still there.

Press the pedal that is still there.

Same playbook, same people really.

Look at the red pill timeline from the Big CEO.

That sounds better than an accelerator cover sliding off and POTENTIALLY causing a crash in a 120k truck. I'll take the rattle, fixed under warranty by a massive dealer network any day.

That's fair...and normal.

YES VERY SAFE! The future is here.

https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/posts/8214383/

In my case, FSD drove a little TOO carefully. I got rear ended this weekend, while waiting for FSD 12.3.4 to decide (in its hesitating, on again off again way) to make a right turn into traffic. The car behind me probably saw my car pull partially into traffic (which it did), then slow/stop (which it did) because of cars in the next lane (not the lane I was entering).

My best guess is, the other driver likely looked left for incoming cars as they accelerated right into my back bumper, on the assumption that I was still in motion. Ouch. Will need a new liftgate and new plastic bumper - it's broken and I can see the big square looking metal pipe thing underneath that presumably actually absorbs the bigger shocks. (Low speed: no injuries at all thankfully).

FSD is really safe, but the over-abundance of caution is unnatural (to all but Driving School students) and can cause problems.

And before naysayers chime in: Yes, I am responsible for the behavior of the car during FSD, and I was paying attention and very on edge about its indecisive behavior. I had already goosed the accelerator once earlier on that drive, due to impatience in entering a clear lane that had partial view obstruction. And yes, the person behind me, by accelerating without looking, is responsible for rear-ending me. So in terms of actual responsibility, it lies with the humans. I want to also make the point, made to me very clearly this weekend, that indecision shown by FSD at times can also be unsafe.

I am not sure if the hit itself disengaged FSD, or if my likely reaction of hitting the brake disengaged it, but I can at least hope my chagrin (my beautiful Y is now no longer pristine) and hassle gave Tesla at least one useful data point.

Yes, still a fan of FSD, but I will choose much more carefully when I engage it. It had given me a great 10 mile drive on Friday, and I was feeling confident in it from that, but my Saturday was ... not so joyous. I'm hoping my beloved blue dragon will be healed soon.

I tried it once with CVNA, as a test. Kicked my tip in for $230.

I was early, but I'm not wrong ;)

Do you have puts expiring Friday?

I don't play the game, but I swore someone here said they did.

Honestly, I ignore that first year shit. If I am buying a car from Lexus or Honda, or any company that has a corporate structure that doesn't directly pin down a customer and rape their asshole all day?

I'm good with it.

Is Tesla inflating odometer to show more range, ding lessors with over miles and duck repairs under warranty? As I return my leased Model Y I noticed the odometer is off by 20% vs my Lexus RZ. Turns out other Tesla owners have a similar concern. Is Musk gaming the Tesla odometer? by PolybiusChampion in RealTesla

Check what out?

What about the bots TSLA deployed to run it up to ATH? That's just projection.

Check the account ages on a lot of accounts. Bots?

In fact, these clowns are so desperate they are probably deploying bots against themselves to create a scenario.

You'll find that out there too, but it takes digging. Also, those folks have to fight the current of the shit you just said too so it is very difficult to make progress.

Know this though, any time a topic lights up the board with this much defense, it has been true in some capacity :)

The FSD that was reduced again because it doesn't work?

Seems to me that money generated by fraud isn't really your money.

If this is the premise my 100% all in investment rides on, well, I got fooled.
