Tesla full self driving is no where close to ready and actively dangerous to any one around it, including and especially the occupants. But the autopilot is pretty convient and useful. I wish they would stop calling these patches "recalls", it's turning the term meaningless.
Edit: “If the driver attempts to engage Autosteer when conditions are not met for engagement, the feature will alert the driver it is unavailable through visual and audible alerts, and Autosteer will not engage,” the recall document states.
Super reasonable stuff.
I doubt if full self driving will become available within the next few decades. Tesla should call it what it is, advanced cruise control.
