Tesla to withdraw nearly half a million cars from owners

Due to issues with the windows closing on the company’s electric vehicles, over a million Tesla owners may soon receive recall warnings. For the following makes and models, respectively: 2017–22 Model 3, 2020–21 Model Y, X, and S. Tesla has until mid-November to get in touch with impacted owners, and it intends to remedy the issue with an OTA software update, according to reports.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued a recall notice for many late-model vehicles across Tesla’s lineup on Tuesday. The window automatic reversal system “may not react correctly after detecting an obstruction,” according to a report, and as a result, “a closing window may exert excessive force by pinching a driver or passenger before retracting, increasing the risk of injury.”
