You essentially need a fully remade battery.

Most of the attempts to fix a single module don't work out and fail again as the battery isn't properly balanced.

It's almost impossible to do it without the scale of batteries the OEMs have at their service centers.

Maybe it'll get better as time goes on though

Well ya, I got years left still.

But at 8 years it's resale value will be much higher than at 8 years with a 15-20k battery replacement if it dies.

There's a cost/risk to consider there, it just working isn't a financially sound decision on its own

Edit: also by the time 8 years is up,getting a 1 year old car to eat that initial depreciation will be easier.

They did their scam at the wrong time.

Today, you can put together a deep fake video including their voice.

Have the fake alienate the other family members a few times to stop them from continued inquiries

I got an electric vehicle, and I'm worried about the post battery warranty period. Do I keep it after 8 years and hope the battery doesn't go out, or do I say fuck that risk and get another one to drive until it's battery warranty is up too.

Do we even know if there might be reservoirs left? Maybe they are there for a reason.

Murdering us is more like it.

I can't remember the exact number but only 5 to 7 need to flip right?

Are there 5 -7 non crazy GOP house members who aren't up for re-election as they are stepping aside/down anyway?

I didn't know it was so hard to intentionally avoid hiding evidence.

I wasn't talking about FSD, I was talking about AP.

Although if you use FSD, to sign up, you need to acknowledge this (among other things)

"Full Self-Driving is in early limited access Beta and must be used with additional caution. It may do the wrong thing at the worst time, so you must always keep your hands on the wheel and pay extra attention to the road. Do not become complacent,"

If it leaves Beta in V12, and that warning is gone, there will be problems probably =( It's not ready to lose such an extreme warning. And it legit shouldn't leave beta until they take on liability and it's legit FSD.

When you sit in the car, it really doesn't though. When you enable it, it clearly warns you about the dangers involved and to always pay attention. The radar versions even warned you about specific situations it would fail in and potentially cause a fatal accident. All cars that rely on radar have that issue and warn their users.

Anyone who's used it knows it clearly has problems, and honestly, it can be a little nerve racking getting used to using at first as well, because it does have problems and you need to learn them. My partner doesn't like using it because of those problems.

The majority of people causing accidents on it have simply grown accustomed to it. They know when it will usually fail, and then make poor choices and end up in a rare circumstance. People are just people and make all sorts of bad choices. Some people follow the GPS off a bridge or into a lake.

That's not to say I don't think there's room for Tesla to improve on this, like using the in cabin camera to further help detect if someone is paying attention or not, but ultimately it falls on the driver to pay attention.

If you happen to be given a Tesla with AP already enabled on your profile, and you've only gone off what you heard in the media then sure maybe, but those aren't the people causing problems. And really, if you rent a Tesla, I really do hope it's all disabled by default so you have to turn it on and go through the setup. That would be a legit problem in my mind otherwise.

I'm going to get downvoted to hell here, but if you defend google here, you should be defending Tesla when someone severely misuses auto-pilot.

Play games on AP and don't pay attention causing crash, not Tesla's fault. Drive off a bridge cause the GPS tells you to, not Google's fault.

You're responsible for driving your car at all times.
