American electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla has been forced to roll back its Full Self-Driving system after issues were reported with the latest software.

Having gone live earlier last month, some users praised the FSD system while some complained about minor issues while in operation – with the most consistent problem stemming from the vehicle randomly providing false collision warnings.

CEO Elon Musk took to Twitter to outline the company’s strategy, saying it would rollback from the most recent FSD 10.3 software to the more reliable 10.2, although 10.3.1 has also now been released.

Utilising beta testing by the public allows Tesla to gather a large quantity of data in a relatively short space of time, although this comes with an inherent risk as those using the system may be doing so in as yet unproven conditions – leading to a higher chance of problems occurring.

When the FSD beta initially went live, Tesla required all beta testers to sign a non-disclosure agreement in an attempt to protect itself from criticism online – however as a large contingent of users ignored the NDA, it was repealed just over a week later.

Prior to the release of FSD, Tesla’s Autopilot system had come under fire after a string of incidents in the United States, with more than 11 crashes involving parked emergency service vehicles occurring while Autopilot was engaged, triggering an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
