Tesla has recalled thousands of vehicles due to a critical error affecting many models. Recall campaigns at Tesla have been on the rise lately. Just last month, thousands of Cybertrucks were recalled. Elon Musk’s company is now recalling a total of 125,227 vehicles due to a faulty seatbelt warning. So, why is this recall being issued and which models are affected? Here are the details…
Critical Seatbelt Error: Tesla Recalls 125 Thousand Vehicles
The reason behind Tesla’s recall decision is the failure of warnings to activate when drivers fail to fasten their seatbelts. This error poses a risk of increased injury in the event of an accident. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) stated that these vehicles do not comply with federal safety requirements. In short, the seatbelt warning system is malfunctioning, leading to a serious safety gap.

So, which Tesla models are affected? If you own a Model S from 2012 to 2024, Model X from 2015 to 2024, Model 3 from 2017 to 2023, or Model Y from 2020 to 2023, your vehicle may be affected by this recall. Tesla will replace the faulty sensor in these vehicles and initiate an over-the-air (OTA) update in June. This update will fix the faulty seatbelt warning system.
This recall decision is not Tesla’s first. In January, it recalled 200,000 Model X, Model S, and Model Y vehicles due to a camera error and resolved the issue with a free software update. If you are a Tesla owner and your vehicle is affected by this recall, there’s no need to worry. Tesla has stated that it will take necessary steps to address this issue.
