Have done several drives with it, in the morning they were fine, pulled into my Dentists parking lot and parked.. then routed to my haircut place, again, it backed in and parked.

Tonight was horrific. I live is a very busy area, people where attempting left turns and making lefts in front of it, and though they were waiting, the truck paused, because the damn lookahead thought: "they are surley going to cut in front of me", well, they didn't and everyone was confused.

Another situation I had even with the previous release, I routed to a restaurant in another town, it doesn't have the address correct, and on the previous version tried to pull into the parking lot before the place.. today? It just stoped and disengaged FSD in THE MIDDLE OF the ROAD.. I didn't realize it though, before the honking started behind me, lol. manually drove 300' forward and pulled into the correct parking lot... I need to figure out how to get the map data updated, because it's had issues here now twice. overall, the prevous version drove better, and was less "jerky", and did less "anticipation".. Is it worth it for end to end start/parking? not sure, but their is no going back, thats for certain.

Good results for me on the first day. I did about 10 drives. Multiple intervention or disengagement areas on V13 seem fixed now on V14.

Speeds are great on standard. No more sluggish behavior.

Didn't hit the middle reflectors on curves.

Had a few quirks that need smoothing out. But overall I like it!

Installed 2025.38.8.7 last night.

This morning, my wife drove the Cybertruck to her office (during heavy rain and high wind.) She said the FSD V14 worked well -- it automatically drove around a fallen tree and a bunch of rocks on the road.

I can't wait to try the FSD V14 myself.

got mine today, after returning from 12 day vacation to Texas and Mississippi. got an update on the road and was thinking is was 14. got very excited however it turned out to just be an update. which I guess was to join early release program, which I joined.

made it from Santa Rosa to Point Arena with only 1 issue. repair work from fallen tree, man with stop sign on left side of road and truck facing me on right side of road. truck stopped then started to go around the truck while man was still holding stop sign. I have seen this before when man with stop sign is on left side of road, if he were on right side of road it would have behaved correctly. according to dirty Tesla testing I watched on YouTube.

otherwise truck stayed in between lines in places it would have crossed the double yellow before. not once did it ask for intervention. it was raining and very foggy on highway 1. bohemian highway is very narrow and sharp curves, 13 would run off road into ditch, 14 was awesome no issues.

one issue that is not FSD fault is we have these end 25 and end 50 speed signs. why they do not just have a sign that shows new speed limit is beyond me. FSD does not know the correct speed.

Backed out of my 200 yard driveway in the dark to the main road. So amazing! Had a phantom breaking incident that was jarring but everything else ok.

Am I crazy, but feels like improvements were made to the suspension and handling? CT is driving noticeably smoother during non-fsd driving. Anyone else feel it?
And for any Tesla engineers/employees/ Elon lurking on this thread - Love you all so much!! Keep after it! You are truly making the world such a better place!

I kind of noticed less noise on my pot holes. I just thought it might just be me driving for 12 days, 10 hours a day.

Good news is that I got it downloaded and installed overnight Nov 12-13.
Sad news is that I am out of town for four weeks, started the 11th, so my CT is just sitting idle at home, under its cover.
I cant wait to try FSD 14.1.7 but will have to until I am back mid December 😬

I got the email about this thread and looked in my app and it was already downloaded. I'm installing it now but I'm afraid I will regret updating well it probably still has Phantom breaking. Version 14.1.4 in my Model X will break for leaves blowing in the wind, shadows or anything it thinks it sees
I saw a pile of leaves on the road—literally, a landscaper was blowing them onto the road. I was in the right lane of a three-lane highway, and I was terrified....and it ran through the leaves without a hitch!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I just came back from a ride and it was awful! Slammed on brakes 3 seperate occasions to the point where the tires squeeled. Got completely lost in a parking lot trying to park just kept shacking back and forth and told me to take over immediately. The last version I had was WAY smoother. Hopefully they work out the kinks. If you have falling leaves in your area I’d recommend bracing for impact because it will SLAM on the brakes if it sees a leaf fall infront of you.
I just drove through a bunch of fall leaves and FSD 14 didn't brake for any of them. It did have a couple of minor stutters when accelerating away from a busy intersection, but nothing violent or disconcerting. Overall, it was a big improvement over Version 13 with perfect lane positioning, assertive behavior, even in a rainstorm, and appropriate cautions around pedestrians making movements like they might step out into the street. This is the best version of FSD Cybertruck has seen to date and it's impressive, even if not perfect (which it will never be perfect).

The release notes actually mention that smoothness improvements are coming next. I guess you could just sit this one out if you are easily spooked by anything not perfectly smooth.

I tried it today, 15 min to Costco and back.

Unwanted braking is much improved over my Model X (version 14.1.4), but it stops at yellow lights, which version 13 didn't do.

I drove two blocks to the post office without using FSD. When I got back in, I pressed the start button. I was parked at the curb with one car in front and none behind. When I pressed the start button, the CT began moving in reverse, turned the wheel, and took off. When I left the Costco parking lot, it began moving in reverse and pulled out of the parking spot, turned to the right, and got confused by the cars that were partially in the way. I had to take over.

On the parkway, it suddenly moved to the left side of the lane, but did not change lanes. I was wondering why when a motorcycle came from behind and on the right, between the lanes. It made room for the motorcycle!

On the way home, on a local 6 lane road with a lot of traffic, I heard a siren and it stopped at a green light. I didn't see a police car and all of a sudden I noticed an unmarked car slowly going through the red light. It was a small SUV, one of the few unusual unmarked cars. There were no visible red lights except in the grill.

Hopefully, it will stop for school buses because last month I got the first ever (for me) ticket for passing a stopped school bus on the other side of the street (while using FSD).
