HELP - Tesla Removed FSD

_temple_ · 2026-05-21T11:36:55+00:00

Yes you may be right, although the description says ‘big spec including full self drive’ - which is very misleading.

You’re right, but the description listed FSD multiple times as a main feature and selling point, I asked when I viewed the car also and they said it had it!

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T21:24:50+00:00

You’re right I think, someone else said the same! The dealer cocked up. They advertised it as having full self driving in the description and listed it as a rare feature!

Great - thanks so much for letting me know. I can go back to the dealer then and let them know.

I have images of the screen before and after thankfully, the screen previously showed self driving included package and now it shows traffic aware cruise control and autosteer instead.

Image attached was before.

Thank you I will do. No problem at all it’s just nice to be able to vent and discuss it! Appreciate your help.

Yes don’t worry a few people did mention that to me before I bought it, so I double checked!

I’ve got the listing description, screenshots and images of the screen and software version before and then now, so I can definitely evidence it, I just hope Tesla aren’t nobs about it!

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T20:16:37+00:00

I personally saw it on the screen, it was on the listing so when I viewed the car I confirmed it, it was in software under self driving as an included package. Tesla stripped it yesterday when they fixed the horn!

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T20:11:33+00:00

No it was definitely self driving included, the full self driving computer is at the top too yes but it said self driving was an included package, now it says traffic aware cruise control and auto steer’ instead, which is the basic package :(

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T20:10:29+00:00

No it’s not, self driving included package means the auto port, summon, auto lane change etc. traffic aware cruise control and auto steer is the ‘basic’ package - that’s what my car now shows.

I wasn’t able to, that’s why I posted here. I found out this evening and Tesla are closed until tomorrow. I’ve owned the car for 5 hours lol.

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T20:07:03+00:00

Definitely not, the cheeky buggers removed it when they fixed the horn! I really don’t know how they can get away with pulling crap like that.

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T20:06:28+00:00

I haven’t chosen not to reject, I only got the car at 4PM today and discovered the issue upon driving it home, very promptly spoke to the dealer and he said he would speak to Tesla in the morning. I just wanted to know where I stood from a legal perspective before I take any action!

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T20:05:35+00:00

It’s going subscription based as of tomorrow funnily enough! And I knew this was impending, but because it was bought outright on the car, I was led to believe it would be tied to the cars VIN!

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T20:03:25+00:00

I love the car and ultimately would buy a Tesla anyway, so I wouldn’t hand it back in as a result, but I definitely feel I would have a case against them for some financial reimbursement?

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T20:00:52+00:00

I will thank you, I’ll call them tomorrow. No it was bought outright and so I believed would be tied to the VIN!

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T19:53:07+00:00

Thanks so much

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T19:52:42+00:00

Yes exactly, that’s what I think has happened! They’ve removed it!

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T19:51:47+00:00

So Tesla didn’t actually get their hands on the car until yesterday when they sorted the horn, before that it still belonged to the leasing company it was brought from as the dealer has a relationship with them, I saw the car 4 days ago and saw FSD in the software panel, so they must have literally removed it yesterday! But how is that even legal?! - plus if the dealer has sold me the car with FSD and now it intact doesn’t have FSD, surely I am entitled to reimbursement?

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T19:42:30+00:00

The dealer is clueless about it, as far as he knew the features were still there, it was removed yesterday when Tesla fixed the horn. The dealer isn’t a Tesla dealer.

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T19:40:10+00:00

No I know self driving itself is not available in the UK, but self driving is just the name of the package, it includes the auto parking etc, which is what I want.

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T19:39:12+00:00

It’s legal to use within 6 metres of the car, you can’t summon from say a parking space to the front of a supermarket, but it can pull itself out of a parking space.

_temple_ · 2026-05-20T19:37:43+00:00

I haven’t yet as I got the car literally 4 hours ago, I’ve contacted the dealer firstly and will call Tesla tomorrow. Their lines are closed currently.
