Tesla is recalling 376,241 Model 3 and Model Y vehicles due to a circuit board issue that may result in the loss of power steering assistance during low-speed maneuvers. While this could potentially increase accident risks, the company notes that an over-the-air update has already resolved the issue. This highlights Tesla's advantage in fixing software-related problems quickly, yet it also raises concerns over the frequency of recalls, indicating potential lapses in thorough testing compared to competitors.
Tesla is recalling 376,241 2023 Model Y and Model 3 vehicles due to an issue that could cause them to lose power steering assistance, the company said.
The filing says that it will stop providing steering assistance after you come to a stop, even if you start driving again. That could increase the likelihood of an accident.
The good news is that if you own an affected vehicle, you don't have to do anything. Tesla has already released an over-the-air update to solve the issue.
It can easily fix most software problems, which means the company tends to do less bug testing than competitors. This issue became relatively widespread before being addressed.
