Notably, the number of this recall is almost on par with tesla's global deliveries last year (500,000 units).

Specifically, NHTSA introduced, "The reason tesla recalled the Model 3 is that when the rear luggage cover of the vehicle is opened and closed, it may damage the rear camera cable harness, resulting in the rear camera image cannot be displayed." ”

The Model S was recalled because of a problem with the engine cover lock, which could cause the front trunk to open itself without prompting, obstructing the driver's line of sight and increasing the risk of collision.

However, NHTSA also said that it has not received any traffic accident cases related to the above risks.

Not only that, not long ago, NHTSA opened a safety investigation into another 580,000 Tesla vehicles because the automaker allowed passengers to play games on the front center touchscreen of the vehicle. NHTSA points out that driving distractions can easily lead to safety incidents.

In August, NHTSA also conducted a safety investigation into Tesla's driver assistance system due to a series of collisions. (Compiled by Guo Yue, China Economic Network)
