Tesla‘s latest recall affects over 125,000 vehicles due to a faulty seat belt warning system, posing a significant safety risk. According to a report from Reuters, this recall comes just a month after thousands of Cybertrucks were recalled for a separate issue.
De details van de terugroepactie
De National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) heeft vastgesteld dat deze Tesla's niet voldoen aan de federale veiligheidseisen. Het defecte gordelwaarschuwingssysteem wordt mogelijk niet geactiveerd wanneer de bestuurder uit de gordel komt, waardoor het risico op letsel bij botsingen toeneemt.
Getroffen modellen zijn onder andere:
Tesla is van plan om dit probleem aan te pakken met een draadloze update die in juni van start gaat, meldt Mashable.
Eerdere terugroepacties
This isn’t Tesla’s first major recall this year. In January, the company recalled 200,000 Model S, X, and Y vehicles due to a camera bug. That issue was resolved with a free software-update. Ondanks deze tegenslagen blijft Tesla de markt aanvoeren met innovatieve functies en geavanceerde technologie.
Veiligheid en naleving
The NHTSA’s findings underscore the importance of strict adherence to federal safety standards. The seat belt warning system is a critical component designed to alert drivers when they are not properly buckled. Its failure could lead to severe consequences in the event of an accident. Tesla’s proactive measure to fix the issue via an over-the-air update reflects the company’s commitment to customer safety and regulatory compliance.
