Auto wipers aren't there yet. I agree with you.
Also, often when I would say "Wipers off", it would try to navigate to "Microsoft". The voice recognition is not quite ChatGPT smart.

They are better than my first Model 3 in 2019. But not that much better, and it is 2023. Auto wipers will work on a Tesla as soon as they start using the ubiquitous $5 IR sensor everyone else has been using for the last few decades, and not a moment sooner.

Incredibly shitty, that's what it is. Let's just admit that. It gets used as an excuse for all the missing controls, but it's pretty awful.
They should just offer a retrofit stalk that has proper wiper controls on it. On most other mainstream manufacturers that would be easy, the stalk is just a module that hooks into the CAN bus and is replaceable with two screws.
I am extra circumspect when driving around Teslas as a result of this seemingly common and extremely disconcerting flaw.
This is a really interesting way to call something dangerous.
Also keeping it nice and interesting for the unsuspecting people in the cars behind you.
Tesla, and the interesting fools who buy and drive them on public roads, can seemingly be relied upon to keep things interesting for everyone.
Fully self driving ludicrous mode beta, keeping things interesting, because interesting is what everyone wants on public roads... Thanks Elon!
