Tesla is recalling more than 321.000 vehicles due to a errorτος λογισμικού που κάνει τα πίσω φώτα σε ορισμένα αυτοκίνητα να μην ανάβουν σωστά (μέσω Reuters). Σύμφωνα με μια δήλωση στην Εθνική Υπηρεσία Ασφάλειας Οδικής Κυκλοφορίας (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration or NHTSA), the recall covers certain 3 Model 2023 vehicles and 2020 through 2023 Model Y vehicles.
Tesla says the taillights on one or both sides of the vehicle may "intermittently illuminate" due to a problem "that may cause false fault detections during the vehicle's start-up process."
NHTSA says this could “increase the risk conflicts” in dark conditions, but Tesla has yet to report any injuries or accidents related to this problem. As you probably know most Teslas update their software over-the-air (OTA).
This is the electric vehicle maker's 19th recall this year. Last week, Tesla recalled nearly 30.000 Model X vehicles for a problem that could cause improper activation of the front passenger airbag in "low speed" collisions, possibly resulting in injury if a small child is in the front seat. It also recalled more than 40.000 Model X and S cars because of a problem that could cause a loss of power steering when driving over rough roads or after hitting a pothole.
