NHTSA Complaint #11695980 — 2024 TESLA MODEL Y

Recently Tesla released it's latest version of FSD, v14.1.4. One of the key features is the revamping of the driving modes: sloth, chill, standard, and mad max. Tesla also removed the ability to manually increase or decrease the speed of the car. This is a problem. Let me illustrate it with a real-life example. Yesterday I was driving of a 40 mph road and the car correctly set the speed. I was using the standard mode so the car allowed an overage of around 10% so the actual speed was 45 mph. In our area this is typical for most drivers. As we entered a village, the posted speed limit was changed to 30 mph. The panel was perfectly visible and readable. The car did not register it and continued at 45 mph. I changed to mode to "sloth" and the car decreased its speed to 40 mph but I was still 10 mph above the legal speed limit. I came across a second 30 mph panel and again the car "ignored" it. Because I did not have the ability to manually reduce the speed of the car, I had to disengage FSD and drive the car by myself. Tesla claims FSD must be supervised. Fine. But removing the ability to manually change the speed of the car should be a requirement not a design preference.
