A woman was left completely shocked after parking her car and realizing that the Tesla next to her was recording all of her movements.
The case was shared by content creator Christine Dawn, who posted a video on her TikTok profile to show the so-called Tesla “Sentry Mode” in action. “I just opened my car door, and this Tesla next to me is recording me,” she said while filming the Tesla screen on the dashboard.
The screen indicates that Sentry Mode is activated, showing a white display with a red circular eye and a black pupil inside it. “To make sure I don’t hit [my door] on this car. I didn’t know they did that,” Dawn said. Her video has already accumulated more than 350,000 views.
In the comments, internet users reacted to the Tesla feature. “We all know Teslas record when you’re nearby. That’s why I always give them the [middle] finger,” one TikTok user said. “That’s so creepy,” another admitted.
Meanwhile, others praised Tesla for the mode, which provides an extra layer of security for the vehicle. “It’s called Sentry Mode and it’s a wonderful feature!” one commenter said. “That’s why I bought a Tesla,” another added.
