Tesla Updates FSD Disengagement Menu, Again: Smaller, Less Intrusive a

Tesla is rolling out software version 2026.2.9.10, introducing the third iteration of the Full Self-Driving (FSD) disengagement reason menu. This change arrives as the company reports $546 million in annual recurring revenue from nearly half a million active FSD subscribers. The FSD build remains at v14.3.2, with this update focused on improving the post‑intervention experience.

A Smaller, Smarter Layout

The feedback popup is now notably smaller and relocates based on what’s displayed, addressing complaints that it previously obscured important on‑screen information. Footage shared by Sawyer Merritt on X shows the redesign allows continued use of navigation, climate controls, music, and shifting between drive/reverse/park while the popup is present, with the window moving to avoid covering key UI elements.

While you can’t exit out of it until you select an option, you can still use navigation, control air, music, go into drive/reverse/park, etc. The popup moves around a bit depending on what you have up so it doesn’t get in the way of most things… pic.twitter.com/EC6bI8Zvw4

The dynamic positioning helps preserve map visibility when navigation is open. Unlike when the menu debuted in software update 2026.2.9.8, which introduced major improvements to Actually Smart Summon, the rest of the interface remains fully interactive while the feedback window is active.

The Evolution of Feedback Options

This is the third adjustment to the menu in quick succession. Days earlier, the company added the requested "Navigation" option. Initially, users had an "Other" category without a way to flag navigation errors; the second iteration introduced "Navigation" but removed "Other".

In the latest version, the available choices are "Navigation," "Preference," "Discomfort," and "Critical." The "Other" category is still absent, and there’s no button to dismiss the menu without selecting a reason. It remains on screen until a choice is made. Without a way to dismiss or defer, some drivers may tap an arbitrary option to clear the view, which could skew the feedback data.

The Secret Shortcut for Quick Dismissal

There is a simple workaround to close the popup without interacting with the screen: press the microphone button on the steering wheel to record a voice note, which clears the menu. Double‑pressing the mic button records an empty voice note and closes the window instantly.

Further refinements are expected as development progresses toward FSD version 15, which is expected to enable a major expansion of the Robotaxi service. Tesla Senior AI Engineer Yun‑Ta Tsai has also teased the ability to provide FSD feedback without disengaging, suggesting this menu is part of a broader feedback overhaul.
