The common one is the lack of a rain sensor for the automatic wipers. It relies on image recognition, and it’s very bad. They could perhaps train the model a bit better, to perhaps not start the wipers at full speed when it’s a blue sky with a dry road. But the cameras are on top of the windshield, and it can’t easily water at the bottom.

Removing the wiper stalk. That decision killed one German driver who was busy fiddling in the menues to figure out how to get the wipers to max when hit by heavy sudden rain (and yeah their sensors don't work well, because they saved money by removing the industry standard IR sensor for rain and tried to rely on their front-facing camera).

They have changed it now so if you push the button to do a single manual wiper stroke, the wiper speed icons pop up on the left side on the screen so you can then proceed to set them to max, but it's still a ridiculous decision that is dangerous. I guess it doesn't rain in California so nobody in charge bothered :)

It's happened many times driving that I have for example overtaken a trailer that splashed an infinite amount of water on me while passing, and I had to hit the max-wiper just to see anything. A delay of a second there could mean a crash..

When did this event happen? Since very early on in the Plaid I remember this popup wiper selection happening: https://youtu.be/gHTdsOImKmo

IIRC around the same time. Just tested it and scrolling doesn't work on the model 3, you still have to use the touch screen.
