Tesla has acknowledged that more than 300,000 of its electric vehicles could lose power steering assistance, which has led the manufacturer to announce a recall that affects a total of 376,241 units, including the 2023 Model 3 and Model Y.
According to the presentation by Daniel Donovan, Technical Publications Manager at Tesla, before the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the problem stems from a coding error that could cause engine components to experience overloads.
The affected vehicles, produced in the U.S. before the release of software version 2023.38.4, have been identified as those assembled between February 28 and October 11, 2023, for the Model 3, and between February 24 and October 11, 2023, for the Model Y.
1% de los modelos podría verse afectado
It is estimated that only 1% of the vehicles involved in the recall have this defect, although the company has acknowledged that this situation could increase the risk of collisions. So far, no accidents, injuries, or deaths related to this issue have been reported.
En caso de una falla en el sistema de asistencia, los vehículos afectados volverían al sistema de dirección manual al alcanzar una velocidad de 0 mph.
Tesla has assured that the software update 2023.38.4 and future versions will resolve the issue, and it is expected that by January 2025, 99% of the affected vehicles in the U.S. will have received this update or later versions.
In addition, it has been reported that a regulatory authority in a market outside the U.S. has initiated an investigation into complaints related to the loss of assistance in management.
Tesla has identified more than 3,012 warranty claims and 570 field reports in the U.S., although it has not provided details on possible cases outside the country. Rumors suggest that the company may face more regulatory challenges in the near future.
