Ex Tesla Engineers Claim Full-Self Driving Autopilot Video Was Manipulated And Edited Out Barrier Collision

Two former members of the Autopilot team who spoke anonymously in fear of retribution told the newspaper that the car filmed in the original promo used a three-dimensional digital map of the route that had been planned ahead, a feature that is unavailable to drivers using the commercial version of the system.
 

Even more alarmingly, at one point during filming, they claim that the car hit a roadside barrier on Tesla property while using Autopilot and had to be repaired, three people who worked on the video allege.
