Tesla recall

TESLA is recalling more than 10 000 Model 3 and Model Y vehicles in China due to problems with the cooling system of touchscreens, the Chinese State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) said.

From May 23, a total of 107 293 Tesla Model 3 and Model Y electric vehicles produced from October 19, 2021 to April 26 this year will be recalled, the statement read. According to SAMR, the decision was made due to the insufficient cooling of the infotainment system’s processing unit during fast charging, which can cause touchscreens to slow down or the central processing unit to restart. The defect can potentially increase the risk of an accident.
