Tesla Vision fails as owners complain of Model 3 cameras fogging up in cold weather

www.notebookcheck.net 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. Tesla has declined to assist to these customers, despite many of their vehicles being covered under warranty.

It's only a problem if you use your cars outside...
What irks me about this is I own an ev (not a Tesla obviously fiat 500e) and I slog/bash that thing through mud/snow/rain/several inches of water on the regular and even do what id consider rally driving with it at times and it's fine. You know why? Because this was always a Tesla engineering failure and not an ev failure. But it sucks because people will think ev= unable to get wet which just is not true.
Every other car uses LIDAR and Elon thinks he’s such a forward thinker for shunning it. So dumb
No Teslas in the wet or the cold. Pretty soon they'll only function, most of the time, in a climate controlled area.
It's like they only ever tested it in SoCal on sunny days.
So, the only way to have anything covered under warranty is to never have your Tesla leave the indoor track which is temp/humidity controlled.

Oh how far we've advanced.
I don’t know much about this world, but I do know it’s ironic that a car feature called Vision is fogging up.
Can confirm it’s terrible all around. FSD is horrendous. It also has problems in bright sun and rain.
I mean how hard is it to give us tiny wipers on them. Cmon now.
Camera fogging has been an issue since at least 2019.. Tesla forums usually have threads from new owners surprised by this each year..

It was 100% predictable that 'vision only' would fail in these circumstances.
That is extremely funny
Elmo's douchbaggery rears its ugly head again.
I was very happy with my 2019 model 3. I upgraded to a new model y a month ago, and the vision stuff definitely feels like a downgrade. I already have a scratch because the vision based park assist is so bad.
Lol every time there's a new article about Tesla's weather problems it's like reading a page out of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

...And the Tesla said "Oooh dear this porridge is too hot! And this porridge is too cold!"
