The U.S. government's auto safety agency is investigating whether last year's recall of Tesla's Autopilot driving system did enough to make sure drivers pay attention to the road.
The recall involved over 2 million vehicles, initiated after a probe into Autopilot's driver monitoring system following crashes involving Teslas running into emergency vehicles parked on freeways.
The investigation aims to assess the post-recall software updates' effectiveness, which may not have addressed the risk satisfactorily, leading to further crashes.
NHTSA seeks to evaluate the recall's impact, Autopilot control clarity, misuse prevention, and addressing system limitations, with Tesla allowing owners to choose parts of the remedy.
