What's wrong with Tesla's car again? Recently, according to the news on the website of the State Administration for Market Regulation, Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. recently filed a recall plan with the State Administration for Market Regulations in accordance with the requirements of the Regulations on the Administration of the Recall of Defective Automobile Products and the Implementation Measures for the Regulations on the Administration of the Recall of Defective Automobile Products.
This means that starting from Friday, April 29, 2022, Tesla will recall some of the imported and domestic Model 3 high-performance version of electric vehicles with production dates from January 12, 2019 to March 25, 2022, and a total of 14,684 vehicles will be recycled this time (including 1,850 imported cars and 12,834 domestic cars).
Due to software reasons, the vehicles within the scope of this recall are in track mode, and the speed area in the center touch display only displays the speed value, missing the speed unit (KM/H). When the vehicle is driving in track mode, the above situation may affect the driver's correct understanding of the speed information, and in extreme cases, it will increase the risk of collision accidents and there are safety hazards, so an emergency recall is required.
Subsequently, Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. will upgrade the software to 2022.12 or subsequent versions of the software for vehicles within the scope of the recall free of charge through the vehicle remote upgrade (OTA) technology.
It is worth mentioning that the upgraded vehicle will display speed units (KM/H) in track mode, and users can complete the software upgrade without going to the store. For vehicles that cannot be recalled through the vehicle remote upgrade (OTA) technology, Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. will contact relevant users through the Tesla Service Center to upgrade the software for the vehicle free of charge to eliminate safety hazards.
