Do not misunderstand, I love my CB, but this last update was a full step backwards. Wish I could revert to 12.5.5. It wasn't perfect, but this new version is far worse. So I'm listing the MAJOR issues here. We all know about speed issues and such, but I'm talking about the stuff here that could cause major problems. This is meant as constructive criticism and not to be just a B fest.

1. In left HOV lane FSD attempts to take every LH exit along the way even though the nav says go straight.
2. FSD Does not see gates with arms. The arms that go up and down that are in front of gates. These are invisible to FSD until it checks to see if it can start rolling forward. Then even if the arm raises FSD stays put.
3. VERY hard braking at some stop lights and very specific STOP signs. This has happened behind other cars as well. I swear the ABS was activating from the heavy braking.
4. Some turns aren't successfully completed so it turns very late and stops mid turn. FSD is confused and won't move through the turn.
5. When traveling in a lane around a curve FSD cues off of the vehicle in the next lane over and tracks it as though it's in front of you. Works fine until the other lane slows down and the other vehicle not in the lane has to brake which causes FSD to suddenly brake even though the lane is clear.

Please feel free to add on. I'll try to update as I find more

There is no question the FSD was driving like a teen now it drives like it doesn’t know what a car does. I had to turn it off after making two big errors and missing an exit and crossing center line repeatedly on a country road. If it had been my kid driving I would have taken the keys… so I did. Not sure what the update was supposed to do but would love to dial it back.

Interesting, mine is the exact opposite of yours. 12.5.5 did all of the above but 12.5.5.2 fixes them.

12.5.5.2 really weird for me.

-Stops at green lights
-Tight turns are more jittery
-Took a right turn when nav said go left, (has always successfully made this turn on 12.5.5)
-Slow lethargic acceleration

Hopefully all the voice comments I’m sending in help lol

Tried using in a National Park with a speed limit of 45 mph. No tolerance here for anything above 48mph! Park police right about that to protect people, other cars on narrow 2 lane roads, and large numbers of wild animals that people come to see. 12.5.5.2 will go well above 50 mph. No way to hold it back except to turn off the Automatic Set Speed Offset.

Exactly the opposite for me, my FSD pissing everyone off puttering along at 38 in 50 zone 😅

Thought it was just me. My first FSD, and it had been going well, but since the update it tried to take a 90 degree corner at 80 (in what it thought was a 55, but was actually a 65); got confused halfway through, and bailed on me. An inattentive driver would've been sent into a ditch, although honestly in actual practice it was more shocking than dangerous, and everything was totally fine, I had plenty of room to recover...... but still, that ain't cool

Yeah I’m getting failed u-turns where it used to be a piece of cake

Mine speeds! Legit speeds!

I disengaged and sent a voice note "FSD is legit speeding, you have to fix this".

- Speeds like hell
- Aggressive AF when slowing down, turning certain lanes

Last night FSD doing 78 in a 70 was ridiculous. All I need is the scroll wheel control to bring it down like in previous models.

78 in a 70 is fine along as it with the flow of other traffic.

YMMV

Just turn that option off in the autopilot settings and you can set your own max speed.
