Tesla will recall more than 300,000 EVs over self-driving software concerns
Tesla Inc. on Thursday launched a recall of more than 400,000 vehicles in connection with the EV maker’s self-driving software, which it said could cause crashes.In a recall notice, federal regulators said Tesla’s TSLA, -0.67% Full Self Driving Beta software, meant for urban driving, may increase the risk of crashes by allowing vehicles to “exceed speed limits or travel through intersections in an unlawful or unpredictable manner.
Tesla said in late January it had pushed FSD Beta to “nearly all customers in the U.S. and Canada who bought FSD,” or about 400,000. The company called it “an important milestone” for the company. Tesla then launched a recall as required and after discussions with the regulator, NHTSA said. Tesla, which has disbanded its public relations team, did not immediately return an email seeking comment.
NHTSA said it still has an “open and active” investigation into Tesla’s Autopilot — the company’s suite of advanced driver-assistance systems meant for highway driving — as well as “associated vehicle systems.”
