Owner gets FSD trial notice he says he never activated, during service
Unconfirmed: An owner of a used Model 3 Performance posted on Reddit that, while taking the car in for an alignment, he received an email saying his FSD trial would end the next day. He says he had never started a trial and had received no prior communication about one. According to the app, shortly before the visit was completed the vehicle was being driven autonomously. The author assumes service activated the trial only for that day. That night, a second email arrived, but its content is not fully shown in the post.
- FSD trial notice the owner says he never activated
- According to the post, the app showed autonomous driving during service
🔎 Why it matters: No official confirmation from Tesla: the account from a used Model 3 Performance owner claims service may have activated an FSD trial without the owner's request. The cause is not verified.
📈 Upside: Not applicable.
📉 Risk: If service activated the trial, a customer's vehicle would have been driven with FSD without the owner's authorization.
