Reports suggest that some Tesla owners have been resisting newer software updates for a variety of different reasons.
At first, it was mainly related to Tesla’s increased “nerfing” of Autopilot, meaning that they added speed limits, restricted types of roads, and alerts to force drivers to keep their hands on the steering wheel.
As reports of these changes started to appear, some owners decided to simply not accept newer updates when Tesla started pushing them.
