He has made a number of false claims about the capabilities of his cars. In my case, these claims influenced my decision, not only to purchase the car, but to pay for expensive options. Although it’s a great car, I feel like Tesla (Elon) over promised and under delivered. The idea that I was scammed out of $6000 for FSD pisses me off every time I get into the car to the point where I’ve considered selling it. That’s not a great reason to sell a car, but at least I won’t have a daily reminder of the time I was stupid sitting out in my garage.

This happened before with the voice recognition operation falling out of sync with the manuals. However, the AP, formerly, in less advanced cars, allowed the car to change lanes with a simple operation of the turn signal -- all the while, maintaining position in the new lane, and adjusting for traffic aware cruise control. Now, the '22 model S, at least, you are forced to deactivate autopilot with a lane change. I'm now starting to think that there is no specification for autopilot, and every model year it will operate differently (worse) than prior model years.
