On February 21, Tesla announced a recall affecting 376,241 units of the 2023 Model 3 and Model Y vehicles in the United States. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), these vehicles are equipped with software versions older than 2023.38.4, presenting a potential safety risk. Specifically, under certain conditions, the electric power steering assist system's printed circuit board may experience overload, leading to a failure of the power steering assist function when the vehicle accelerates after coming to a stop. If this occurs, drivers may have to exert more steering effort at low speeds, potentially elevating the risk of a collision. To rectify this issue, Tesla has made available a free over-the-air (OTA) software update.
