Tesla Is Recalling Nearly All Vehicles Sold in US to Fix an Autopilot Fault
WiredTesla is recalling more than 2 million vehicles, nearly all of the vehicles it has sold in the US to date, to fix a flawed system designed to make sure drivers are paying attention when they use Autopilot. Rather than physically recalling vehicles, documents posted today by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration state that Tesla will send out a software update in an attempt to fix the problem. NHTSA states that its investigation has found that Autopilot’s method of ensuring drivers are paying attention and in control are inadequate, and that “in certain circumstances when Autosteer is engaged, the prominence and scope of the feature’s controls may not be sufficient to prevent driver misuse.” Moving forward, NHTSA says it’s keeping its Tesla investigation open “as we monitor the efficacy of Tesla’s remedies and continue to work with the automaker to ensure the highest level of safety." Aside from including added controls and alerts “to further encourage the driver to adhere to their continuous driving responsibility,” the NHTSA safety recall report states that Tesla’s software update—already issued to some vehicles, and with the rollout ongoing—will apparently limit where Autosteer can be used.
