| Description of the problem | If a tesla owner is using the tesla app to use the smart summon feature, the vehicle doesn't necessarily stop quickly when their finger is removed from their touch screen if the internet connection for their cell phone and/or for their tesla is poor. I have video of my informal testing of this potential safety issue done in a private parking lot with software version: 2019. 32. 11. 1 d39e85a on my tesla model 3. |
