"Reduced allocation" is a sensitive word for potential car owners. February 8 news, combined with two Tesla employees and an internal letter, Tesla has decided to remove some of the Two Electronic Control Units in the Model 3 and Model Y bogies produced by the Shanghai Gigafactory. Tesla engineers believe that one of the above electronic control units is redundant because it is mainly installed as a backup.

This means that the reduction control unit will save Tesla costs in the short term. Some analysts pointed out that the reason for the control unit is that tesla is also under pressure because of the global chip shortage; second, Tesla is facing the pressure of sales targets in the fourth quarter, and the reduction control unit can ensure the smooth production of the Shanghai factory in the short term.
It is reported that the spare parts removed by Tesla are electronic control units in electric power steering systems, which are mainly used to control the rotation of wheels. The lack of an electronic control unit as a backup may affect the safety of the vehicle.
Tesla's decision has affected tens of thousands of cars sold in China, Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany and other parts of Europe. It is worth noting that Tesla did not disclose this situation. It's unclear whether Tesla will make a similar decision on models made or shipped to the U.S.
