This is why I always wait a few weeks before applying updates. I have yet to install the hotfix. I'm not seeing any real issues with the original update, and I'm reading lots of issues after the hotfix here and on reddit. There have been comments here in the past that it is stupid to wait to...
i agree, it's probably a temporary reduction in R1 production while the R2 ramps up. It could even be labor related - all hands on deck for R2 build training and ramp up, etc.
My Gen 1 did it yesterday. I was using Driver assist. There was a car stopped about 3 feet off the right shoulder. The brakes were applied not so gently for about a second until it decided it was not really a hazard.

Producing a larger vehicle that would never sell in quantities to be profitable is not "having it all".

I reported the problem to Kia and my local dealer wasn’t able to initially replicate it until I was able to record the issue on my phone while charging on a fast DC charger. The car would drop to a 0kW charge rate at 82...
So true. 3D printing forums/groups are particularly bad. A noob posts a question they could have easily found a gazillion discussions about ("Should I use Glue Stick?") and then a free for all of criticism, bad advice and counterpoint posts follows. I rarely visit or post in 3D forums anymore.
