Tesla recalls over 2 million vehicles to fix defective system that monitors drivers using Autopilot

Hindustan Times  

Tesla is recalling more than 2 million vehicles across its model lineup to fix a defective system that’s supposed to ensure drivers are paying attention when they use Autopilot. The agency says its investigation found Autopilot's method of ensuring that drivers are paying attention can be inadequate and “can lead to foreseeable misuse of the system.” READ | Tesla recalls over 10 lakh cars in China over braking defect The recall covers nearly all of the vehicles Tesla sold in the U.S. and includes those produced between Oct. 5, 2012, and Dec. 7 of this year. In its defect report filed with the safety agency, Tesla said Autopilot's controls “may not be sufficient to prevent driver misuse.” A message was left early Wednesday seeking further comment from the Austin, Texas, company. Tesla says on its website that Autopilot and a more sophisticated Full Self Driving system cannot drive autonomously and are meant to help drivers who have to be ready to intervene at all times.
