Tesla’s Massive China Recall Explained | California News
Description
Tesla just triggered China’s largest-ever car recall, impacting nearly three million vehicles including Model S, X, 3, and Y, after discovering a critical safety flaw: electronic door handles that could jam post-crash, trapping occupants or delaying rescue. The fix? Warning stickers and a software update that auto-rolls down windows after impact. Tesla’s also recalling driver-monitoring systems to keep drivers alert. Notably, no U.S. recall is planned yet—though Tesla already handled two smaller recalls this year. Meanwhile, Chinese rivals like Xiaomi and Xpeng are also recalling vehicles, but Tesla’s move dominates headlines for its scale and urgency.
