Just My Bill - S1-E6

Revealing mistake: At the parking lot when the cop calls in a tow truck for the first time, you can spot a man inside the car wearing a white shirt hiding inside. He moves his head trying to avoid the camera angle but fails.

Just My Bill - S1-E6

Other mistake: Just as Michael jumps over the roadblock, the whole front of K.I.T.T. flexes showing it's not a real Trans-Am but a mock up.

No Big Thing - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: At the end when Michael is driving Devon in K.I.T.T, there is a truck behind Devon which isn't behind Michael, depending on who is talking in the shot.

No Big Thing - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: As KITT and the truck approach each other, the terrain alternates from tree lined to wide open. Also in the same sequence, after KITT suggests reverse, Michael's hand is shifting from reverse to the low gears.

No Big Thing - S1-E8

Other mistake: When the semi is approaching Michael head on, KITT tell Michael to hit the brake, which Michael does. Then KITT tells Michael to put it in reverse, which Michael does. But then KITT says "why reverse, we could have jumped over?" as if he wasn't the one who suggested reversing.

No Big Thing - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: KITT tells Michael he is running low on gas. Before they changed to the view of his fuel gauge, it was on the 3rd bottom of the RPM indicator. When they change, it's put on the top just below the RPM indicator, and changes again to the 3rd bottom.

Trust Doesn't Rust - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: Throughout the episode, KARR has his own unique yellow voice modulator. However, when he is talking to the two robbers in their lockup and we see KARR mainly from the outside, the light flashing inside KARR as he speaks is red, suggesting that it is KITT (or at least the KITT prop, possibly filmed before the KARR's modulator was made or reused from elsewhere).

Knight Rider [Pilot; a.k.a. Knight of the Phoenix] (1) - S1-E1

Devon Miles: Welcome aboard the Knight 2000.
Michael Long: Thank you. What's all this? It looks like Darth Vader's bathroom.
Devon: It's a one-of-a-kind car, Mr. Long. It is the fastest, safest, strongest car in the world. It is also completely fuel-efficient and it is operated entirely by microprocessors, which make it it virtually impossible for it to be involved in any mishap or collision. Unless, of course, specifically so ordered by the pilot.
Michael: Pilot? Don't tell me this thing flies.
Devon: No, but it thinks.
Michael: It thinks? My car thinks?
Devon: We like to think of it as our car.

No Big Thing - S1-E8

Question: In this episode, in an aerial view of KITT travelling before meeting the semi, KITT is passing a parked car that seems to be one of the other cars used as the stand-in for the 'hero car'. Would that be any sort of error? (00:23:35)

Movie Nut

Answer: I would say that unless there's visual evidence it was another K.I.T.T. car, as in you could see the bar scanner or cut steering wheel, people on here would correct the mistake by saying more than one 1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am was sold and there's no reason it's meant to be a random car.
