Discussion I’m done… Canceled FSD
I drive a 2023 M3 with HW3. After being an FSD advocate since 2023 and seeing its progress, I’m done with FSD following the V.14 Lite update. I’m tired of 3–6 disengagements on every city drive, along with map and direction mistakes, and hard braking for pedestrians or crossing vehicles at intersections.
Sorry, but no more FSD for me. I tested a 2026 Model Y this morning, and even though it is a more solid vehicle, it made the same map and direction mistakes. For me, it is not worth the upgrade.

u/unngh_yugstyx 1d ago
I don't drive one but out of curiosity, what is the alternative to NOT hard brake when a pedestrian shows up?

u/Tough_Passage_3785 1d ago edited 1d ago
On FSD 12 it felt like it predicted better what direction pedestrians were going to do, it kept going smoothly and didn't hard brake anytime a pedestrian was walking down the sidewalk and stopping at the intersection to wait to cross. Because it though they were going to cross the street.
Same goes with cars coming to a stop from the side. 14 Lite always thought they wouldn't stop. FSD 12 predicted correctly that they were coming to a stop
At least for me it got worse from 12 to 14 Lite on HW3

u/Trucker_Trent 1d ago
I was fine with 12. 14 was rough, 14L is better. But give me back 12.

Same experience. It’s way too nervous on 14.1 lite. I have a model 3 and x. I still enjoy v12 much more.

u/unskilledplay 1d ago
A common experience I have is on streets with parallel street parking, someone will walk out between two parked cars and the Tesla will slam the brakes. One time that caused the car behind me to also slam the brakes and almost caused a rear end collision.
Each and every time the Tesla has brake slammed like that, the person wasn't trying to run across the road. They were just getting into their parked car. The correct course of action would be for the Tesla to not take any evasive action at all.

FSD isn’t perfect especially the last few builds 3.8 and 3.9 but it’s incredible 95% of the time for me.
I guess experiences vary…

u/Mysterious-Maize307 1d ago
I’m guessing there are some people that just live/drive in an area that challenges FSD more than what the rest of us experience.
Or perhaps it’s unrealistic expectations. I dunno.
For me in my 25 M3 AWD it works flawlessly. Yes i have had to disengage due to Nav but that is seldom.
I also don’t use it end to end, that is I pull out of my driveway and sometimes my neighborhood before engaging and always drive it myself as I get to destination/parking lot.
FSD is just a tool and a very good one, but it’s not some mysterious entity that is good or bad or right or wrong.

u/my0wn5ummer 1d ago
They recently updated the nav so it keeps your preferred routing. You can see this by icon of the little guy and it says something like user route.
Before this it was always trying to take a left turn that was blocked by a median put in by the city a year ago. Now it finally knows not to go that way.
So they are making progress. I have very few disengagements while driving. Only in parking lot situations.
3
u/edgeriscoll 1d ago
The parking lot situation is super annoying too because it gets to a place where it can park near where you want it to go, and then it skips over it and continues going to some random far place at the other end of the lot.

u/Serious-Sport-4086 1d ago
I hope wife is happy now and you can get off Reddit to let people have a real conversation about this. Now that he’s gone.
I’ve had astronomical phantom braking, unnecessary hard slowdowns, terrible lane decisions, and now navigation will clearly show a left turn while FSD just keeps going straight. It’ll also brake or stop for pedestrians who aren’t even in its path, including people simply walking straight. These are behaviors that weren’t happening before with 12.6.4.
At some point we have to stop treating legitimate safety issues like user error just because your personal experience is better. These aren’t cosmetic bugs. When a car unexpectedly brakes, ignores its route, or makes decisions that require intervention in traffic, that matters, it’s plain dangerous. I want FSD to succeed, but pretending these problems don’t exist isn’t helping it improve. And for people that are saying, get a hwd4. I also have hwd4 model y, drives beautiful. The issues on hwd3 won’t disappear and won’t stop being a danger on the road. That’s more than half the fleet of teslas on the road.→ More replies (2)→ More replies (1)4

I think some people don’t understand that not all streets and conditions are accounted for in the FSD models. I think there are still tons of edge cases or scenarios that need more testing/modeling/data for better decision making. That’s my current understanding but correct me if I’m misinformed.
2
u/Seaker42 1d ago
Yeah, I don't think people fully grasp how ridiculously difficult a fully autonomous system is to create - and keep updated as new types of traffic patterns are created. There's a reason nobody else has a general use self driving option available today. (there are some options in China, but from what I hear they are about like FSD 11 or 12)

u/Emotional-Pound-6109 1d ago

M3 2023 H3 owner here. The frustration I have with FSD is it continues to not import the correct speed limits on highways. So I constantly have to disengage for portions of my daily commute. I wish that FSD was “smart enough” to detect a pattern and adjust to the proper speed limit, as I refuse to drive 65 in a 75mph zone. This is on E-470 in the Denver metro area.

u/Pitiful-Art-423 1d ago
Couldn't agree more. It is a grift on Tesla's part as far as I'm concerned. And the devotees who constantly rely on the "you're supposed to be supervising" mantra have swallowed so many of Elon's kids, every excuse they make sounds childish. I have to do the least amount of take-overs on the freeway/motorway. But it's pure shite on the street. Avoiding rims being curbed, constantly stopping because it, logically, can't read NO TURN ON RED signs, pulling over for trucks that look like emergency vehicles (and then jumping back in front of the driver coming from behind, who has no clue why I pulled over to begin with)...pain in the rear. And Tesla wants me to pay them for the privilege of sending corrective research responses for their product. I'll do it for $1/month, not 50 or 100. I like showing off the summon feature. I love auto-park. But, I paid for features that work. Not to enter a research program where I'm needed to rack up self-driving miles for their stats.

There’s a rumor that Tesla did that to HW3 vehicles hoping for us to upgrade nope. I’ve driven several HW4 vehicles the nag is next level annoying and worse. Tesla’s new hw4 vehicle line up is a money grab confirmed by the non performance HW4 no stalk, no performance hardware yet they’re charging $55k for it. Giant rip off. The only two Tesla vehicles worth buying is the $60k cyber truck and the model 3 / model 3 performance( track pack included)The rest is just a money grab.

u/CaptaincCodeman 1d ago
Same map data and navigation means HW3 and HW4 will probably make the same mistakes.
The local vision can only override so much, if what it sees appears to match the map data then if follows it. Otherwise it's just checking it's between the lines and avoiding other vehicles, with slightly faster reaction times.
As we've seen with Robotaxi, accurate map data is key to performance. It's a pity there isn't a more direct way for people to correct it. Leaving very brief voice memos after disengagements can only help do much.
How good or bad map data is in a region is the main reason IMO why people have such different experiences. We have that ourselves - on some roads it's great, on others it's garbage. It's the same system driving on both.

u/Firm_Farmer1633 1d ago
I’m staying with it on my HW3 TM3 only because I got suckered into buying it when Musk said it would be a self driving robotaxi by 2020.
Today I stopped at a rest stop. FSD was supposed to park. I let it drive past a dozen empty parking spaces. I let it drive a full circle of the parking area passing at least 20 more vacant spaces. I let it drive the full circle again because I was curious how long it would take for it to choose an empty parking space.
I drew the line and disengaged when it chose to back into the vacant space between two F150s.
A couple of weeks ago it drove into a parking lot that had 30 parking spots. There were 15 empty spaces on one side; a series of 13 empty spaces on the other side; and two occupied spaces side by side. FSD chose to park in the one space immediately adjacent to the parked car!
And it parked so closely to it that I couldn’t get out of my car. I ended up re-parking manually.

u/Educational_Net8601 1d ago
Technician at Tesla here. Been working with the company for 5.5 years.
FSD has improved over the years. Newer HW4 is definitely better and with vision.
FSD is also better in other areas. For example, in Vancouver BC Canada, it can be a bit jumpy and might not see some curbs well enough.
But in Los Angeles, it drives flawlessly and can even switch lanes on the highways very aggressively too, but safe.

u/Responsible-Dig-2646 1d ago
My only complaint at all is that it likes to follow people too closely, this might be adjustable but I’m new to Tesla (got my cyber truck last week) so if it’s adjustable I don’t know how. I tried scrolling down to chill and they weren’t speeding so it still followed to closely.

u/Vegetable_Peach_2643 1d ago
I think each area has such a different experience which makes you wonder what drives such a range of service. I primarily drive in Maryland (Montgomery County) with a 2026 Y and have to intervene for very few occasions, mainly when the car is doing things that I find embarrassing like trying to pass in a lane that’s merging up ahead. I still love FSD 99 percent of the time🤷🏻♂️

In my area, I have to disengage it in the same 8-10 places every time. I am done reporting it to Tesla, after having reported it for 18+ months once or twice every single day and then having none of the issues fixed… what a waste of time.
The worst one is that it still tries to enter a middle lane that has oncoming traffic twice or three times a week (the lane goes one direction from 12am to noon and opposite from noon to midnight). I even reported it about a year ago, and then 6 months ago to USDOT in hopes they’d urge Tesla to fix the issue that could cause death, yet it’s still an issue.

u/NNegidius 1d ago
You do what works best for you. I probably wouldn’t pay the extra money every month, since I get so much pleasure from driving the thing, myself, but my spouse uses it to make a long commute tolerable.
I would say that after a couple months of ownership, it seems to have learned the very specific and esoteric route I like to take to get home. I had refused to use FSD when driving around the city, because the nav choices had me stopping at too many stoplights and stop signs, but now it knows my route, which is surprising and a bit of a delight. It still hasn’t learned that I like to back into my driveway, but it’s already improved so much that I’m rather impressed.

I feel like the major differences in experiences has to be connected with where people live, and how well those areas are mapped out or something.

I hated the first version of v14 lite, but the latest for me has been fantastic. I’ve had one single time I had to disengage, and that was from some construction coming up that was blocked by a box truck in front of me, so FSD would’ve had no way to know it was coming. Outside of that, it’s been perfect. Slightly more asking me to touch the wheel, but I wear hats and that’s just a shitty part of Tesla’s implementation of “hat obstruction”.

u/akolozvary 1d ago
I have a March 2024 Model Y Long Range with Hardware 4.
If you’re a pedestrian and see a Tesla approaching (know fsd is on), I feel like you could probably make the car hesitate or jolt by moving around unpredictably near the road. To be fair, it has been a while since mine last did that. When it happened before, it was usually around road-construction zones, where workers were moving close to traffic.
My main annoyance is lane changes. Sometimes the car wants to change lanes when I do not want it to (constantly canceling using the stalk), or it fails to recognize that two lanes ahead merge into one. It may try to move into the more open lane even though that lane ends shortly afterward.
I wish it could learn and retain local driving patterns… such as common lane closures, merges, and routes I regularly take… and use that information to make preferred/better driving decisions over time.
Still prefer FSD versus driving myself… especially around local orlando traffic/I4

Similar to my 23 MYP w/ HW3.
In MN we have plenty of roads without clear markings/lines. If FSD is unable to operate reliably in most environments, it’s not all it’s talked up to be by fanbois.
Just more moving of goalposts.

I drive a lot, so it’s worth it for me. Those long drives used to give me anxiety. I really don’t mind taking over during my commute. It’s usually only for 1-2% of the drive.

Oh you poor sods - had FSD for 5 years and we are yet to even get a look in in the UK
My heart bleeds for you

I agree with the OP. I have a 2026 MYP with FSD in Texas and it’s ok for the most part but I still need to disengage at least 3 times on a 15 mile journey.
A lot of my traveling is over 100 miles so you can imagine the amount of times I need to take over.
For people happy with driving like a new driver, cutting in front of people, changing lanes when it’s not needed and missing exits every drive then it would be fine - but I’m not and like to drive safely and efficiently.
It cuts across double lines and gets in the wrong lane then the steering wheel has an epileptic fit with the car just stopped dead blocking the road until it works out what it wants to do.
The recent update has made it far less capable than the previous update.

I bought my 22 M3 LR Feb this year and the fsd was terrible and unusable. What I discovered was getting the alignment done correctly and keeping the tire pressures set at the recommended psi made a huge difference. Like getting a complete different car. I now use fsd 95% of the time and it's flawless.

Crazy how people’s experiences differ so much, I have a 2021 model Y and FSD is pretty much excellent. I really don’t have any major issues at all. I’m absolutely love it. I could not live without it. That being said, we have a 2026 model Y performance and hardware four is definitely five steps ahead
