yes. I was extrapolating from my experience. I have absolutely no interest in my car parking itself. On the other hand, even though I am fairly thin, there are always some aholes who will park so close to you that you can't open the door and slide in. I was suggesting that IMO that is the parking feature that would be the most useful.

Why are they framing it like that's a bad thing?A view from another manufacturer on autopark:

Makes sense. No one makes a good autopark lol. I haven’t tried teslas new implementation but other than that, everything I’ve tried is frustratingly slowA view from another manufacturer on autopark:

Update to my Jun 16 post....now that I'm on 2.2.10, I am ZERO for FOUR in having auto park recognize any spots (I have a reasonable understanding of the conditions under which it should and shouldn't work, there were plenty of cars, a few spots, no diagonal spots, and I was driving at about the same speed that worked without issue in the past). - it appears to be completely nerfed. Prior to this, with earlier versions, it was picking out spots left, right and center (well...left and right, technically). Since then, big goose egg.
Now I find myself wondering, is it working for anyone in 2.2.10?

I just come to the conclusion that’s it’s extremely unreliable no matter what software version you’re on. I was in a crowded parking lot, going slow today and passed so many spots it didn’t recognize any. It’s useless!
When it finds a spot, the auto park feature is great. Unfortunately it almost never finds a spot.
I’ve had the car since December and the feature has only worked for me a few times. Most of the time now I don’t bother to even try.
I was in a crowded lot today with a couple of spots open and it just couldn’t “see” them.
It’s disappointing, but it seems like a software problem. Hopefully it will get fixed. In the meantime I’m fine with parking my own car.

So mine was working perfectly on 2.3.10, but since moving to 2.4.10 it has been unable to find a parking spot. I've tried busy lots, empty lots, driving on one side or the other and in the middle and it can never find a spot now. I'm also having issues with the lane change in HA as it has yet to calibrate the sensors after driving for hours on the freeway. Anyone else seeing this on the latest version?

I'm wondering about curb rash when using Park Assist to parallel park on a street. Has parallel parking improved in the last year? How confident are you that your rims will remain pristine when using PA to snuggle up to the curb? On the flip side, how close (average distance) does PA park next to a curb?

On 19s, it’s totally fine. On 21s, it’s probably fine, but I just don’t use it because it’s so easy to parallel park myself with the overhead cams and not worth the risk for me.
Perpendicular parking it has never screwed up for me. (It has been unsuccessful at times, but nothing ever got curbed or tapped)

After my 2017 MS curbed my right rear wheel beautifully in the first auto park effort I gave it, I haven’t had the balls to use any auto park system since…fairly or unfairly. It left a mark, pun intended.

I did my first PA perpendicular park today. Worked flawlessly. I did what everyone said to do. I drove slowly pass the open parking spot. Once I drove by PA identified an open spot so I pressed on the brake and and tapped the spot on the screen. PA took over from there. I was nervous because PA started to back in and from my viewpoint it was going to collide with the car next to me. But to my surprise the car stopped and pulled forward to straighten out and then proceeded to reverse in to the spot. I thought the car would just complete the back in maneuver in one reverse motion. I wasn't prepared for the car to perform a 3-point back in. Another thing I noted was that I was driving through the parking lot at a normal distance from the cars parked perpendicular to me. I didn't have to hug the parked cars, just drove normally, but slow was probably the key.
