Tesla Vision fails as owners complain of Model 3 cameras fogging up in cold weather::A number of Tesla owners have taken to Reddit after their front cameras fogged up and stopped working in cold weather, leaving several features, including the US$10,000 FSD Beta, inoperable. Tesla has declined to assist to these customers, despite many of their vehicles being covered under warranty.
No Teslas in the wet or the cold. Pretty soon they’ll only function, most of the time, in a climate controlled area.
Lol, right? Every time there’s a new article about Tesla and their issues with weather it’s like reading a page out of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
…And the Tesla said “Oooh dear this porridge is too hot! And this porridge is too cold!”
maybe its because you are blowing issues that affect a couple people and assume it affects everyone. like that time a tesla was flooded and the news went with “tesla’s can’t operate in wet conditions” and here you are repeating what you heard from tabloid articles.
In this particular case, it’s likely a manufacturing defect that caused the sensors to not be sealed properly causing moisture to get in. You are not smarter than 100’s of engineers.
Too much computer and not enough car 🥲
Well, designed and built in SoCal, an area not known for its incliment weather, and Tesla is too cheap to do any sort of environmental testing. No real surprise they have so many issues the moment it rains or the temp drops below 50F
The car works just fine. You shouldn’t be using autopilot in bad weather anyway.
WE GOT A LIVE ONE!!
Honestly can’t tell if it’s sarcasm without an /s
Who said anything about bad weather? Jeez, you can always count on muskrats to make the dumbest arguments based on ridiculous assumptions when Daddy Elon needs to be defended.
I am not a fan of Elon Musk but it is quite funny watching lemmy users because experts in topics way out of their leagues because they saw a tabloid article that gives them another reason to hate musk. I promise you that you are not smarter than the 100’s of engineers working on tesla cars.
Nah Musk is a total asshole, that’s obvious. I’m just pointing out ALL cars can still be driven when the cameras are foggy. Too many people in this thread seem to pretend that the entire car refuses to drive because it got a little chilly.
There are a million legitimate reasons to criticize Elon, (like the fact he’s a raging transphobe), but this one is kinda meh.
Cold = bad weather? How elitist.
Nah, relying on FSD and whining when it goes out is elitist.
Obviously cold counts as bad weather to the machine if it messes up your camera system, so just drive it like a normal human.
When you spend $10k on FSD do you get a map of all the places you’re not allowed to live or visit?
I wouldn’t know. I’m not stupid enough to spend money on an unproven product.
So 3-6 months of the year is just bad weather?
That’s a good year in the UK
You know you can build camera to not fog, no matter the weather? All it takes is the will to build quality products.
Oh yeah, the engineering is shit for sure. Just noting that FSD is an optional, experimental, expensive feature and rich people who whine about it are being babies.
Since you seem to know a lot about Tesla: when people pay those $12,000 for the “Full Self-Driving package,” does Tesla tell them they can’t use it when it gets cold outside?
I don’t know a lot about Tesla, but we all know their marketing is lies.
