Some Owners Say Tesla's New FSD Update Is Causing Their Cars' Computers To Overheat

Tesla's fleet of cars equipped with HW3 and Full Self-Driving may be experiencing some issues.

Some owners report that the new version of Tesla's software is overheating their Autopilot computers.

Some report getting locked out of FSD, or even hardware failures.

Some Tesla owners are reporting that their Autopilot computers—the hardware responsible for running Tesla's Full Self-Driving (Supervised) software—are having issues.

Specifically, owners of cars with Tesla's last-gen Hardware 3 computers are reporting temporary failures that render FSD unusable for a period of time, while others say that the boards are failing outright. The culprit? While no official answer exists, some owners are pointing their fingers at Tesla's newest FSD V14 Lite update.
