. For Teslas the risk is standard- 17. November 2016, 07:28 Uhr Autopilot von Tesla | Süddeutsche zeitung
In spite of this, or even for this reason, the autopilot offers its services by means of the steering wheel symbol, although he only takes a fraction of the action around him. Apart from well-developed main roads, which shows a more than 500 kilometers long test drive, the robot recognizes the lanes only gaps and the pedestrians often too late.
The makers around Elon Musk know that their autopilot is untrained and does not deserve its name. It can not match the road data of the navigation system with the data of its sensors. The machine does not understand its environment, but relies on a fraction of the information a driver needs to drive the car. The front camera detects tempolimits, but the panning of the pavement overlooks them. The machine does not follow the new, yellow markings, but can straight to the next construction site.
But this is just one of many shortcomings. The autopilot quits the service more often, because he is suddenly overwhelmed. On curvy country roads the driver gets a small yellow Warndreieck at Tempo 70: Game over. Anyone who reacts too late depends on the guard rail. If the central line is missing on narrower country roads, the autopilot drives fast and uninhibited in the middle of the road - unaffected by the 40-ton truck, which is easily visible to him.
The Federal Ministry of Transport is currently investigating whether the autopilot is legal.

. Man Files Lawsuit Against Tesla Claiming His Model X Spontaneously Accelerated Into His Living Room
Model X owner Ji Chang Son filed a lawsuit against Tesla on Friday, claiming his vehicle suddenly accelerated as he was parking it in his garage. Filed in the U.S. District Court in the Central District of California, the suit “alleges product liability, negligence and breaches of warranty, and seeks unspecified damages,” according to Reuters.
The lawsuit claimed that Son’s Model X—a car Elon Musk once described as “the safest SUV ever made”—“spontaneously began to accelerate at full power” as he pulled into his garage. The vehicle jerked forward, “crashing through the interior wall of the garage, destroying several wooden support beams in the wall and a steel sewer pipe, among other things, and coming to rest in Plaintiffs’ living room,” the suit said. Both the driver and the passenger were injured.
The lawsuit seeks class action status, meaning Son isn’t the only Model X owner who’s reported this problem. It cites seven other complaints from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s database that make similar allegations against the company. In September, transportation website Electrek reported on several claims of “sudden unintended acceleration” from Model X owners.

. Tesla’s new Autopilot update detected and displayed stop signs, but it didn’t act on them
A picture of the instrument cluster of a Tesla Model S has been circulating on Tesla forums and Facebook groups following the company’s latest Autopilot update which brought the ‘Enhanced Autopilot’ feature to new cars with the second generation hardware.
After checking with Tesla, we can confirm that a vestigial version of the feature could have made its way in a build released to the first 1,000 cars with the new hardware this weekend, but it wasn’t intended to be in the latest customer build since the system still doesn’t act on the stop signs.
It shouldn’t be in the latest version available, but if owners can see that the Autopilot detects stop signs, they shouldn’t try to let the system stop for them.
