Tesla FSD v14.3.9 encounters software bug reporting dirty cameras

According to IT Home, after upgrading to FSD v14.3.9, Tesla owners report a software bug that frequently prompts warnings about dirty front cameras, even though the windshield and camera housing are clean. A user on X, @CARN0N, posted about the issue and Tesla support confirmed the warnings are due to a software fault, which was introduced earlier this month with the new FSD version. The software makes the vision encoder overly sensitive, misidentifying light glare as camera surface dirt, and the alerts appear while FSD is active.
