The recall affects 362,758 vehicles, including the Model 3, Model X, Model Y and Model S, built between 2016 and 2023, due to the risk of crashes linked to the so-called Fully Autonomous Driving – program.

Management’s concerns raise new questions regarding a system that Tesla CEO Elon Musk says is vital to the company’s long-term future. Although Musk did not go into the specifics of the NSA’s complaint, he tweeted on Thursday that the term “recall” was “totally wrong” and that the problems might be fixed with a software update.
The department said system errors “might increase the risk of a collision if the driver does not intervene”.
Investigating smart driving technology
The company’s self-driving technology is already under scrutiny from Washington. The department responsible for traffic safety has been looking at collision sites since 2021 following dozens of accidents with other vehicles. It also opened an investigation last year into complaints of Autopilot-equipped Tesla cars stopping abruptly at high speeds.
The agency said in a separate statement on Thursday that its investigation into Tesla’s Autopilot software was still ongoing.

The traffic safety department added that it first notified Tesla on January 25 that it had identified “potential concerns regarding certain operational characteristics of the FSD Beta program in four specific road environments,” and asked the automaker to file a recall for the vehicles. .
Tesla met with the administration several times in the following days and did not agree with its point of view, but on February 7 it decided to move forward with the recall “out of an abundance of caution,” according to the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Tesla listed 18 complaints of defects during the warranty period between May 2019 and September 2022 that “may be related” to conditions that concerned management, but told it it was not aware of any injuries or deaths related to these defects.
Tesla representatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Bloomberg.
