Former employees have also voiced their concerns about the feature. In July, former Tesla Autopilot engineer Eric Meadows told CNN Money a story about testing the feature in Los Angeles in mid-2015 just before it launched to the public. He said he was pulled over by police on the suspicion that he was driving drunk while using Autopilot mode. He said the car was struggling to make sharp turns on its own.

The engineer said he was “pushing the limit” of Autopilot mode and assumed customers would do the same thing. “I came in with this mentality that Elon had: I want to go from on-ramp to off-ramp, and the driver doesn’t have to do anything... The last two months I was scared someone was going to die,” he said. Meadows was fired for “poor performance” shortly after raising concerns.

Despite months of public outcry, Tesla is standing its ground. In a statement to Reuters, the company said that it never described Autopilot as a self-driving or autonomous feature despite the fact that the name implies it. “Since the release of Autopilot, we’ve continuously educated customers on the use of the features, reminding them that they’re responsible to keep their hands on the wheel and remain alert and present when using Autopilot,” Tesla said. “Drivers must be prepared to take control at all times.”

Earlier this week, Tesla released a software update for the Autopilot feature. The update will allow the system to use existing radar sensors to gather more information about the terrain around the vehicle. As Jalopnik reported, the big change will rely more on Tesla’s integrated radar system as opposed to its camera-based setup. Musk went so far as to say it was “very likely” that the new version would have prevented the first fatal wreck in May.

Now, it appears that Musk has a whole new problem to deal with.
