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.
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.

Well, designed and built in SoCal, an area not known for its incliment weather, and Tesla is too cheap to do any sort of environmental testing. No real surprise they have so many issues the moment it rains or the temp drops below 50F
Since you seem to know a lot about Tesla: when people pay those $12,000 for the “Full Self-Driving package,” does Tesla tell them they can’t use it when it gets cold outside?
That’s mind boggling. I do not understand why people continue to buy cars from that trash company. Tesla has had a long history of shit build quality/quality control. With so many EV options on the market now, there’s literally no incentive to go for Tesla anymore.
Or just heat the lenses, air force and army have been doing it for fucking decades. You never hear about an F18 TGP or Abrams commander sight “fogging up” lol

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
No Teslas in the wet or the cold. Pretty soon they’ll only function, most of the time, in a climate controlled area.

The car works just fine. You shouldn’t be using autopilot in bad weather anyway.

I don’t know a lot about Tesla, but we all know their marketing is lies.
Cold = bad weather? How elitist.
Nah, relying on FSD and whining when it goes out is elitist.
Obviously cold counts as bad weather to the machine if it messes up your camera system, so just drive it like a normal human.
When you spend $10k on FSD do you get a map of all the places you’re not allowed to live or visit?
I wouldn’t know. I’m not stupid enough to spend money on an unproven product.
Elmo’s douchbaggery rears its ugly head again.
It’s only a problem if you use your cars outside…
I swear I saw an article about someone whose tesla shorted out in the rain and they basically said you shouldn’t have gotten it wet.

I don’t know much about this world, but I do know it’s ironic that a car feature called Vision is fogging up.
I mean how hard is it to give us tiny wipers on them. Cmon now.
