Tesla recalled a total of 1,104,622 imported and domestic cars.
A few days ago, Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. filed a recall plan with the General Administration of Market Supervision according to the relevant requirements for the recall management of defective automobile products. Since May 29, 2023, some imported Model S, Model X, Model 3 and domestic Model 3 and Model Y vehicles with production dates from January 12, 2019 to April 24, 2023 have been recalled, totaling 1,104,622 vehicles.
The vehicles within the scope of this recall are not allowed to choose the energy recovery braking strategy, which may not provide enough reminders for the driver to step on the accelerator pedal for a long time. The superposition of these factors may increase the probability of mistakenly stepping on the accelerator pedal for a long time, which may increase the risk of collision and pose a safety hazard.
This recall was carried out when the General Administration of Market Supervision initiated a defect investigation. Affected by the investigation, Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. plan to push newly developed functions for vehicles within the recall range through OTA technology, so as to reduce the collision risk caused by excessive speed caused by long-term deep stepping on the accelerator pedal. The specific functions include: providing options to allow drivers to choose energy recovery braking intensity for vehicles that do not have the option of energy recovery braking intensity; Adjust the factory default state of vehicle energy recovery braking strategy; Give a reminder when the driver deeply depresses the accelerator pedal for a long time.
Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. will notify the relevant car owners by registered mail, SMS, etc., and arrange the recall and maintenance. Users can call Tesla customer service hotline through mobile phones and fixed telephones, or log on to the website or follow WeChat WeChat official account for more information and reflect the defect clues.
