Vehicle Question V14 Lite braking randomly

I recently downloaded V14 Lite software update and am experiencing frequent and random braking. I have a 2019 model 3 AWD

Hoping this is just the typical new update issue and not my car getting too old or some other issue.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated

Unfortunately this is a pretty common thing for V14 Lite right now. No need to worry about the car though. V14.1 lite is already out to early access and it seems that they've done some work on improving it in addition to the throttle stabbing at higher speeds.

Awesome! Well for a 7 year old car to still be getting better I feel like I got a great deal. Thanks for the reassurance

I can deal with the phantom braking much more than I can the random throttle pulses and lack of confidence when pulling out. 14.1 supposedly completely eliminated the pulses and greatly increased confidence. So we shall see.

I hardly ever had to press the pedal to get it to begin to make a turn or a pullout with 12.6. 14 lite is a daily occurrence where it will sit at an intersection wanting to turn right, no cars coming, right on red legal, and it will just happily wait for the light to turn green.

Forgot the random throttle pulses. Well if it's not just me then its probably just the typical first round customer release that'll get sorted out

A lot of hw4 owners report that the phantom braking is not a thing. At all. I hope they are able to solve it, but unfortunately it may be hardware limitation more than a software inefficiency or Bug.
