They altered the deal, pray they don't alter it further and take away something it had when you bought it.
I'm a Tesla owner in Denmark, and in this video I'm ranting about my experience with Tesla's latest Autopilot update. Recently, I got an unfair "strike" from the new Autopilot Beta system just for glancing at my car's touchscreen to check my speedometer (there's no head-up display, so I have to look at the center screen!). Tesla's new driver-monitoring camera thought I wasn't paying attention to the road and penalized me. This was not a feature when I bought my car, and it caught me by surprise. In this critical review, I explain how Tesla's "5 strikes and you're out" system nearly disabled Autopilot for me. The cabin camera now watches the driver, and if it thinks you're distracted five times, you lose Autopilot access (it even called my basic lane-keep Autopilot a "Beta" now). I talk about how this update has made Autopilot practically unusable for me. The constant steering wheel nags (having to jiggle the wheel to prove I'm awake) and even occasional phantom braking make driving more stressful, not less. This is a huge disappointment because Autopilot used to be one of the fun features of my Tesla. As a Tesla owner in Denmark, I also mention how our aggressive driving culture makes Autopilot struggle. (Even the so-called "Mad Max" mode for lane changes couldn't handle Danish highways!) With these new restrictions and strikes, I've actually turned off the lane-keeping Autopilot feature because I refuse to risk getting banned from a feature I paid for. It's frustrating that Tesla changed the rules years after purchase – what was once a helpful driver-assist is now a source of anxiety. I still love driving my Tesla, but I'm not happy with how the Full Self-Driving/Autopilot system has evolved. In fact, it feels like it's gotten worse with recent updates, not better. Watch till the end for my full, unfiltered take on this Autopilot fiasco. 🤬 Do you think Tesla went too far with these Autopilot Beta restrictions? Have you experienced issues with Tesla's Autopilot or FSD Beta? Let me know your thoughts in the comments – I'm genuinely curious if others feel the same or if you think I'm overreacting. This is a heated topic, so feel free to disagree or share your own stories. Thanks for watching, and if you found this video interesting (or relatable), please give it a thumbs up and consider subscribing to RUD for more real-talk tech content! 🚗⚡🗣️

![I Got A Weird DC Charging Error in My Tesla So I Opened the Secret Menu - The Fix
A few weeks ago, I got the dreaded:
“DC Fast Charging Unavailable. Service Required.”
Link to the the first video: https://youtu.be/OfwIfxSwGPg
The alert disappeared after a few seconds, but I wasn’t comfortable leaving it unresolved — especially if I might be going on a long road trip. So in this follow-up video, I’ll walk you through exactly what Tesla Mobile Service did to fix the issue on my Model 3, how long it took, and what it cost me (spoiler: not that much).
This builds on my earlier deep dive where I accessed Teslas hidden service menu and found the error:
CP_HV_COVER_SNA
If you’ve seen the same alert, or just want to know what happens when you do schedule service for it, this video covers:
🔧 What parts were replaced
💶 The total repair cost (incl. labor + parts)
🛞 Whether its a common issue, according to Tesla
✅ My thoughts on when you should fix it
If you missed the original diagnosis video, I’ve linked it so you can catch up on the full story.
💬 Let me know in the comments if you’ve had this same issue or any other mysterious Tesla alerts.
