Tesla Smart Summon in a Mall Parking Lot - Does it Actually Work?

Putting my Tesla Smart Summon to the test in busy parking lot. Will it actually come to pick me up on it's on?

Straight to the point. No bullshit or fillers. 👍🏾

It would be nice when the car is out of sight it gives you access to all cameras to see the cars surroundings (as extra added safety)

The summon works great on a open lot with no traffic … it’s more like a feature to show what the car is capable off doing without a driver

I have it also and have had similar experiences. It's a great party trick, but quite embarrassing when you need to go out in the middle of the land and rescue it :)

i think you need to remain 100% still.. every time you started walking, the car would stutter or stop.

People need to stop making excuses for this $6000-$15000 feature that's far from ready. Way too dangerous to be out.

This video gave me anxiety 😂 I tried smart summon in a high traffic area as well, and I’ll NEVER do it again. Only in a low traffic area. I found regular summon a lot more useful

2:27 is a daily occurrence with summon lol

I have the same car. After watching your video, I’ll pass on using this feature. Thanks for making it.

Imagine how cool it would be if u needed an uber or something to pick you up, so you just summon your tesla

Smart Summon seems very expensive for the very limited use cases. With most crowded parking lots, there is so much chaos that I would think it would be incredibly difficult for the car to process everything that is going on around it. I really can't believe anyone would pay for this feature right now. Maybe Tesla should call it a charitable donation so at least you could write it off. I would be embarrassed to admit I wasted the money.

This was awesome. Thank you for taking the time to show the feature, man! :)

[Grant-duix]

I love how you raise your voice everytime people walk by you so that they can hear that no one is driving the vehicle and show off lmao

[JessSkubi]

I love this test for smart summons. I'm an owner of an app. Technology, can only be at it's best with customer feedback, use, and proper data. It can only get better with these experiences. Awesome job! I can't wait to try this feature.

This function is VERY useful in case your car is got "stuck" and you can't even open the door to get inside the car. I saw a real story in Hong Kong how a Model S owner spend hours managed to move his car from a JAMMED space.... Life will be MUCH easier if this function is available at that time ;-)

Another feature that hasn't progressed much since its launch, I will stick to basic AP (EAP isn't worth it)

[callbettersaul]

Ignoring the times the car has driven itself against a pole, smart summon is a pretty cool feature.

[jaymarclucas]

They’ve had smart summon out for almost 2 years now…and up until now it hasn’t improved one bit and I still don’t see it functional on a daily use. They should prioritize updating this function to be more efficient. Hopefully, before the end of next year.

My anxiety would be through the roof trying this.

I can imagine how embarrassing it must feel when it behaves the way it did on your video but please keep using and keep in mind that Tedla continues to collect our data in situations like this to better improve.
