Tesla made two significant Full Self-Driving announcements within 72 hours this week, while federal regulators opened a fresh investigation into whether FSD caused a death in Texas. Elon Musk confirmed on June 18, 2026, that Grok will gain the ability to issue live commands to FSD's planning layer, targeting delivery by approximately September 2026. On June 22, Tesla rolled out FSD v14.3.3 to Australian customers via over-the-air update, the first time the v14 generation has reached right-hand-drive markets. On June 23, NHTSA opened a special crash investigation after a Tesla Model 3 plowed through a Texas home at 73 mph, killing 76-year-old Martha Avila while, according to the driver, an automated driving assistance system was active. Tesla is simultaneously expanding FSD's geographic reach, deepening the AI's command authority, and defending the system before federal investigators who have now opened 47 crash investigations into Tesla driver-assistance technology since 2016. Musk also confirmed separately that FSD will gain persistent parking-preference memory.
