Tesla recalls 53,000 cars to replace faulty parking brakes

Live Mint  

Washington/San Francisco: Tesla Inc. recalled nearly two-thirds of the vehicles it made last year to replace faulty electronic parking brakes that may not release properly, marking its second-largest recall to date. About 53,000 Model S and Model X vehicles assembled between February and October last year contain a small gear that could have been manufactured improperly by a Tesla supplier, according to a statement on the electric-car maker’s website. “While less than 5% of the vehicles being recalled may be affected by this issue, we are recalling 53,000 vehicles total out of an abundance of caution,” Tesla said. “Because of the design of the gear, it is difficult to tell exactly which vehicles are affected.” The recall covers about 63% of the roughly 84,000 vehicles Tesla manufactured in 2016.
