Tesla Rolls Out FSD v14.1.7 With Smoother Driving as Musk Targets v14.2 for Intersection Fix

Overview

• Owners began receiving FSD v14.1.7, an update focused on behavioral refinement rather than new user features, with distribution concentrated on HW4 vehicles.
• A real‑world test drive reported no intersection stuttering or brake‑stabbing during the route, reflecting clear progress without claiming a universal fix.
• Navigation and routing remain a weak spot, including an example where the system chose a poor path near a Supercharger and ceded control to the driver.
• Elon Musk said the persistent hesitation at intersections is likely to be fully addressed in v14.2, which he indicated is at least a month away.
• Former AI director Andrej Karpathy praised v13.2.9 on a new HW4 Model X as smoother and more confident than his prior HW3 experience, reinforcing the hardware performance gap.
