Based on the recent filing published by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles are 2023-2023 Tesla Model 3, produced between Oct. 19 and Nov. 5 of this year, and 2020-2023 Tesla Model Y, made between May 24, 2020, and Nov. 9, 2022. The Nov. 15 recall report described the possible issue as follows: “In rare instances, taillamps on one or both sides of affected vehicles may intermittently illuminate due to a firmware anomaly that may cause false fault detections during the vehicle wake up process.” So far, no accidents or injuries have been reported, and Tesla stated that it would put out an over-the-air firmware update to correct the issue. The new recall comes just a few days after Tesla recalled around 30,000 Model X cars due to a possibility that the front passenger airbag would deploy incorrectly, as reported by Reuters. The publication stated that Tesla also had another recall in early November for over 40,000 Model S and Model X vehicles due to the potential that they might experience a loss of power steering assist on rough roads or after hitting a pothole. As a result of the Nov. 18 recall, Tesla’s stock decreased by almost 3%, putting it at its lowest in nearly two years. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, Tesla has had 19 recalls in the U.S. this year so far. Tesla CEO Elon Musk is dealing with plenty of other problems as well. He just testified in defense of himself in the suit against him and his $50 billion payday from the automotive company. At the same time, Musk faces many issues at Twitter, the site he took over as CEO at the end of October. More News:
