Tesla (TSLA) Recalls 130,000 U.S. Vehicles Over Touch Screen Issues

 


Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) is recalling 129,960 vehicles in the U.S. due to a fault in their infotainment systems.1

The cars that are being recalled include Models 3 and Model Y vehicles that were launched in 2022 as well as Models S and Model X vehicles that were produced in 2021 and 2022.

Tesla's infotainment device is used for music, navigation, air conditioning and heating, and controlling the back-up camera and the speed of the windshield wiper. The electronic systems in the recalled vehicles are prone to overheating when the car is charging, causing the touch screen to lag behind or go blank.2 The problem may be due to a computer chip that is not cooling enough resulting in a blank touch screen or a lag in the infotainment navigation.
