So now I am in a beta test as a vehicle dummy without a chance to opt out. My model Y can’t keep lanes what my entry level Škoda does perfectly fine. My model Y slams on the brakes occasionally when I try cruise control feature on empty highway. I reported this defect as a case for warranty, but according Tesla this is fine functionality.

Do you mean FSD or Autosteer (or Autopilot or whatever it's called now). I think Tesla left Autosteer purposefully crappy. FSD is excellent at keeping the lane, way better than what your Škoda can do.

I agree it is intentional. They haven't updated autosteer, as far as I can tell, since the Model 3 was released. Certainly my 2023 (sold a couple weeks ago) was no better than my 2019 was, and notably worse than my Ford Lightning. Outside of FSD, most everyone else makes superior TACC & lane centering now.

Autosteer is disabled on all new vehicles too, part of forcing people to buy FSD.

I feel like many won’t consider FSD if their autopilot doesn’t work well.

Maybe they did some market analysis. I find the idea that a shitty autopilot will trigger FSD conversions to be very optimistic.

It’s old free Autopilot. It doesn’t convince me to buy FSD, hardware is the same at the end.

I am used that demo shows best features of the product…

You can opt out by selling it. I suppose if you think it's enough of an issue you could do us all a favor and just have it crushed.

As a pedestrian, can you sell your neighbor's dangerous car?

How does that help everyone else on the streets? Everyone becomes a victim of poorly working automated driving.
