Limitations and Inaccuracies
Collision Avoidance features cannot always
detect vehicles, bikes, or pedestrians, and you
may experience unnecessary, inaccurate,
invalid, or missed warnings for many reasons,
particularly if:
• The road has sharp curves.
• Visibility is poor (due to heavy rain, snow,
fog, etc.).
• Bright light (such as from oncoming
headlights or direct sunlight) is interfering
with the view of the camera(s).
• The radar sensor is obstructed (dirty,
covered, etc.).
• The windshield is obstructing the view of
the camera(s) (fogged over, dirty, covered
by a sticker, etc.).
Warning: The limitations described above
do not represent an exhaustive list of
situations that may interfere with proper
operation of Collision Avoidance Assist
features. These features may fail to
provide their intended function for many
other reasons. It is the driver's
responsibility to avoid collisions by
staying alert and paying attention to the
area beside Model 3 so you can anticipate
the need to take corrective action as early
as possible.
Caution: If a fault occurs with a Collision
Avoidance Assist feature, Model 3
displays an alert. Contact Tesla Service.
