In addition to problems reported (running through red light, failure to stop, failure to move after stop and/or green light, etc), I am experiencing a new problem: yesterday it warned me to take control at a stop sign. Usually FSD will come back after a short while. But this time it doesn’t, even today after I rebooted the CyberTruck! I checked and cleaned all camera following the manual. I also confirmed that there is no strikeout on this vehicle.
Anyone has the similar experience? What is the solution besides taking it to service center?

I've not heard of an issue like this.

I'd ensure all cameras are working using the camera app in vehicle. Also, ensure you have not applied any products to the cameras or windshield that create a hydrophobic layer, which can interfere with camera visibility, things like rain-x . If you have done this, you can try a good wash with dawn dish soap to strip if off.

You could also enter service mode(check manual) and see if any faults there. Be careful in that menu though if you do venture in.

Beyond this, service call.

Thanks for the advices! The cameras work perfectly and I can see the live images in all 4 different directions. I will try the service mode as you suggested.

I had a similar problem that reoccurs from time to time. Try this: with the truck on and in park, go to controls, autopilot, and deactivate FSD. Then put it in drive and move forward slightly, then put it back in park and reactivate FSD. If that doesn’t solve it, go back to park and go to the safety tab (I believe it’s there) and recalibrate the cameras, then drive on a highway with clearly visible lane lines. It will take 10-15 mins to recalibrate the cameras that way. You’ll see a small blue circle in the upper left side of the screen indicating the progress of the recalibration. Once completed, FSD should be restored. Hope this works for you.

Thanks! I will try it as soon as I can. Just thinking to bring it to the service center

The first simple trick works! Thank you so much for saving me a trip to Tesla service center.

obviously, this is a software bug?

Glad to be helpful. Anytime you can avoid a trip to the service center and avoid that experience is a good day. - R

I posted last week about the problems I encountered with Version 12.5.5.3 in the cybertruck. I redrove most of that route today (Soquel Dr. Santa Cruz Ca. to Aptos Ca. ) in a model Y with version 12.5.4.2 to compare their actions. Traffic conditions were similar. The car handles lane centering better than the truck but at the intersection of Soquel Dr and Spreckels Dr where I had the severe right turn problem with the cybertruck the car had the same problem. That intersection has an island between the right turn lane for south bound traffic and the left turn lane for north bound traffic. That is the problem the autopilot can not handle. As to the problem with the cybertruck trying to run the red light, that condition did not present itself in the drive today so I can't comment on that.
