Tesla unilaterally decided to push out a refactored UI to my old Model S a few months ago, changing the location of numerous functions to new sub-menu paths, and rendering years of muscle memory useless.

Not only do I have to re-learn where everything is, but older memories interfere and confuse every time I try to access an infrequently used function.

This experience has been irritating at best. It has felt extremely unsafe on more than one occasion.

IMO, if their work is visible, they did it wrong.


I'd recommend focusing on driving instead of messing with settings if it feels extremely unsafe.
