THIS is the question I wanted Grok to answer. I know how to turn the wiper off but the question is WHY must I do it each time I use FSD if I want to avoid the wear on the wiperblade and the potential scratching on the dry windshield. (Thanks for another shortcut but you missed the point🤗.)
Actually, he was right one time when I asked why I have to always say “wiper off” when using fsd. His reply was “I’m too lazy to remember your preferences!” (Yeah, I know, there is currently no option for this but maybe “soon” it will happen.)
In order to solve that ”problem “ the U.S. needs to eliminate all speed limits on the interstate highways except when entering a potentially congested area such as entering city limits. This is the way the roads are on the autobahn (Germany) and autopista (Italy). In those countries vehicles...
NHTSA already shows my VIN as a recall incomplete for the lightbar. But it also shows a “recall incomplete” for the parking light when I am already on 38.6 and it has been corrected.
Guessing their updating may be effected by the shutdown but not the actual recall which, if true, is comforting.
Well, got my light bar installed as scheduled. I made sure there were no highway speeds the first 24 hours as recommended. It held up on a round trip of 1500 miles to Chicago at highway speeds up to 90 (short passing) and cruising @70.
Looks solid to me, I tried pressing on top and there was...
wiper off!

Jason,
I never got the email, I just asked for the install through the service app. My appointment is 10 days out and things may change. It has not been installed yet but 🤞it will be. My VIN is 030xxx
“Wiper off!”
Thanks for the info and cite. I just asked about not having the wiper automatically turn on when using FSD and also about maintaining as a minimum the posted speed limit during FSD.
I’ll post if I get a reply.
”Wiper off!l”
Just looked up the reg in Virginia and these are NOT street legal for use in Virginia, BUT I also found out that there is no need for the center inside mirror in the CT because of the 2 standard outside mirrors.
Does anyone know if the vault (aka truck bed) is a series of panels or one peice? Received my CT with severe oxidation stains from leaking water. I have tried to clean it to no avail myself. My next step is to try a detailer who might have better luck. If that doesn’t work, need to weigh...
I got the ”extra” slat installed and it solved about 95% of the water problem. Still some drips which I think may be coming from the glass aeroflap interface.
Has anyone tried a bead of clear calk across the outside to cover this interface water leak?
Fingers crossed they will be deploying the seal sooner than “soon” as Elon would say.
The oxidation drip stains are evident if you magnify the attached pix I took before the slat add service. The minor leak is now on the driver side vs shown in pix.
How long did you wait for your light bar and...
Got my extra slat put in last week and there is significant improvement but still a bit of water coming into the bed on the front driver’s side. I‘ll get out and close the cover and try to figure out where that bit of water is coming from. I don’t think they replaced the applique seal.
