User reports FSD made unannounced U-turn and rerouted due to traffic
Unconfirmed: a Reddit user recounts that, while returning home on a familiar route, FSD began an unexpected U-turn at a left-hand turn. The driver took over and turned left on their own. About 100 yards later, they saw that the highway they were about to merge onto was stopped and that FSD was detouring due to traffic. The user suggests the system should announce route changes so drivers are not caught off guard. The post does not specify software version, model, or date.
- According to the user, FSD made an unexpected U-turn on a familiar route.
- The detour responded to a highway stopped by traffic, per the account.
- The user asks that FSD announce before changing routes.
🔎 Why it matters: No official confirmation from Tesla: the report describes FSD changing the route without prior notice because of a stopped highway, with no version or date given.
📈 Upside: According to the user, the alternate route avoided the highway stopped by traffic.
📉 Risk: A route change without announcement can catch the driver off guard, as happened here when the user had to intervene.
