Service History
Tesla's new Service History, available through Tesla's Service Mode, lets owners and technicians add service records to the vehicle.
Each service record is permanent and can not be amended once it has been entered. You can enter a variety of service records from simple owner-oriented tasks such as windshield wiper replacements and adding washer fluid, to motor or battery pack swaps.
Tesla App Commands
When you're in close proximity to your vehicle, commands issued from the Tesla app will now be executed quicker and more reliably by being sent over Bluetooth instead of relying on the vehicle's internet connection.
This feature requires vehicle update 2024.38+ and Tesla app update 4.38+.
This feature is available for both iPhone and Android and supports the Model 3, Model Y, Cybertruck and the 2021+ Model S and Model X.
Curve Assist
In certain regions, Tesla has added a new Curvature Assist feature that allows the vehicle to perform sharper turns while on Autoilot. When the feature is active, the vehicle will display "Curvature Assist Active" in the visualization area.
Autopilot Hardware Version
Up until now, it wasn't always easy to tell whether your vehicle had Autopilot hardware 3 or hardware 4. With update 2024.38, Tesla shows your vehicle's Autopilot hardware in the Software tab.
Simply go to Controls > Software and underneath your car's VIN, you'll see the FSD hardware version of your car.
WiFi Diagnostics Tool
Tesla now includes a WiFi Diagnostics tool to help you determine your WiFi connection status, speed and tips to improve your connection.
To view WiFi Diagnostics go to Control > Wi-Fi and tap on the blue Diagnostics link near the top of the menu.
In the diagnostics tool, you'll be able to see various details regarding the access point you're connecting to, your vehicle's MAC address and information about your connection.
Near the bottom, Tesla will also provide some tips to improve your connection if needed.
Improved Voice Recognition
Users are reporting that voice recognition has also been improved in this update for varying English dialects. Tesla's voice command system now better understands different accents and performs commands more reliably.
