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.

I was very happy with my 2019 model 3. I upgraded to a new model y a month ago, and the vision stuff definitely feels like a downgrade. I already have a scratch because the vision based park assist is so bad.

That interesting. I find the auto park so slow to use, it just bugs me that it can't park in one swift motion. I have a model Y that went from radar to vision and FSD is definitely better now than before, but they also don't have car-length based follow distance anymore.

The latest update added "follow the speed/flow of traffic" and that works excellent. I drive 200 miles a day in heavy traffic a few times a week and it is far less stressful in the Tesla w/ FSD.

I wouldn't know how well auto park works bc so far it's never been enabled... 😆

I try it every now and then and yeah, it's never worth it.

I've successfully used autopark twice since 2019.

All the other times, if it sees a parking space at all (which is very rare) it has either aborted immediately or tried to reverse into an obstacle.

This is why I don't park near Teslas lol. There are other cars with that feature now but boy does Tesla seem to not care that stuff isn't ready.

Every other car uses LIDAR and Elon thinks he’s such a forward thinker for shunning it. So dumb

The driving assist features of my Honda CR-V also stop working whenever there's snow or ice on the front of the car. Bad design for cold climates is not just a Tesla issue.

You shouldn't be out of park while there's snow or ice on your vehicle. Clean off your fucking vehicles.
