Just had to do a Chrysler recall that is a software update and it is a safety issue. The Traction, ABS and stability control would disable itself randomly on the Pacifica. Another one from Chrysler is the defog would not work on the Grand cherokee Hybrids. All of those are software, but also safety issues. Tesla had one where the self driving would kill people.
Tesla’s cruise control that steers sometimes is basically the opposite of those radar activated brakes some cars have.
Some cars will detect a potential collision and will apply the brakes, possibly before the driver (who is in full control of the vehicle) might react, averting the collision entirely or reducing the energy of the collision. It errs on the side of caution slightly more than the driver does, and will take control of the vehicle pretty much only to bring it to a stop.
Teslas intend to take full control of normal operation, expecting the driver to watch out for unsafe conditions that either the driving environment or the car itself create, and then take control in time to avert an accident. Drivers aren’t trained for this. This isn’t how the system is marketed. This shouldn’t be legal on our roads.
I see you haven’t used autopilot. It’s basically just the advanced cruise control/lane keep of other cars that you’ve described. It, too, drives more cautiously than most humans and only applies brakes to avoid collision rather than swerving or what have you.
I’m referring to whatever the hell is in the videos I’ve seen of Teslas accelerating toward pedestrians. My '03 Chevy hasn’t made that decision once in a quarter million miles of driving.

Did you have to take time off and schedule a visit to your Chrysler to a dealership to have the Chrysler software recall or is it like Tesla software recall where its mostly automatic and you set it to happen in your garage when you’re asleep?

Tesla had one where the self driving would kill people *if the driver wasn’t paying attention
They nerfed the car because people were abusing the system. Fuck Tesla, but that whole ordeal was stupid as hell.

Are you referring to Full Self Driving?

Is this one of the staged videos by Dan O’Dowd or from someone legit?
