Tesla software update 2026.38.3.2 was listed on October 22, 2026, adding another build to the 2026.38.3 family. Its seven official entries combine seasonal entertainment with charging, navigation, lighting, vehicle graphics, and security. Each entry is marked New Feature, but the individual hardware and vehicle conditions determine which functions apply. The notes do not identify a new FSD package for this build.
Emergency Drive Away allows selecting Drive while a Supercharger cable remains connected, strictly for an emergency. Using it damages the vehicle and charger, and repair costs may fall to the user. Activation also shares short recordings from the vehicle cameras with Tesla. The entry lists newer Model S and Model X variants, Model 3, Model Y, and Cybertruck, so its purpose and consequences deserve attention alongside the everyday features.
Halloween Mode gives the listed AMD-equipped vehicles a ghost-themed visualization, approach-triggered sounds and flickering lights, a scheduled light show, and Photobooth effects. Its description permits seasonal effects beyond Halloween itself. Visual Updates has a narrower configuration: AMD-equipped HW3 Model 3 and Model Y receive more detailed vehicle images and an enhanced parked scene. Sharing a software version does not make those graphics available to every hardware combination.
Set Arrival Energy brings destination-energy preferences to the phone. With Tesla App 4.58.0 or later, owners can open the location tab, choose a destination, and select the desired remaining energy for arrival. The official entry lists Model S, Model 3, Model X, Model Y, and Cybertruck, with worldwide availability indicated.
Supercharger Site Maps targets the listed Intel-equipped legacy Model S and Model X, Model 3, and Model Y. At supported pilot sites, View Site Map shows the layout, and navigation can display available, occupied, or unavailable stalls on arrival. Dynamic Headlight Leveling separately adjusts low-beam aim according to driving conditions and surrounding traffic, improving visibility while reducing glare on specific Model 3 and Cybertruck vehicles.
Security Improvements completes the package without naming individual vulnerabilities. Readers comparing this build with 2026.38.3.1 should use the separate articles and each feature's requirements, rather than infer identical availability from the shared branch. Below are the confirmed 2026.38.3.2 Release Notes, with illustrations and the listed vehicle, processor, hardware, and regional conditions.
Emergency Drive Away

for Model S (New), 3, X (New), Y and CT
