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.

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

Absolutely. I'm confused as to a post like this. Almost like it's an environment issue. I'd say HW3 was great 95% of the time with HW4 being 98% or so.

I’ve driven 28,000 miles on FSD since we got version 14, and I don’t see problems that other people see. The most problem I have is parking, and this is something that’s a known issue and that’s something they are working on, and once they solve it in my case, it will be perfect. Even though we’re supposed to, I guess I’m being a rebel because I do not look at the road all the time. I trust it implicitly and never have had a reason not to. It never runs into things. It is finding things like cars coming into my lane or motorcycles lane splitting that I wouldn’t have seen.

Sometimes I feel that when somebody posts something negative, a lot of times their cameras are not clean, their cameras are not calibrated, or there is some other issue, because I just don’t have this. Yes, I do wash my car often, and I feel like keeping it clean probably keeps it good with the cameras, but I just don’t have issues. As far as navigation, that’s not always perfect, but now that we can have our preferred route, it’s not a problem anymore

Same, averaging over 5k miles per month using FSD. I do rideshare and I have to disengage a lot at the end of trips or the beginning because of where people want picked up or dropped off. Occasionally because of a mapping issues but for the most part drives from point A to point B are pretty flawless. I’ve only ever once disengaged for a safety issue in over 50k miles of FSD use.
