(Tesla) is recalling certain 2017-2021 Model S, Model 3, Model X, and 2020-2021 Model Y vehicles operating software version 2021.36.5.2. A communication error may cause false forward-collision warning (FCW) or unexpected activation of the automatic emergency brake (AEB) system. Remedy: Tesla Service has released an over the air (OTA) software update, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 28, 2021. Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752. Tesla’s number for this recall is SB-21-00-004.
2017-10-12	SEATS:MID/REAR ASSEMBLY	Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Model X vehicles. The left-side, second row, reclining seat backs may not fully latch due to having incorrectly adjusted recliner mechanism cables. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 207, “Seating Systems,” and 210, “Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages.” Remedy: Tesla will notify owners, and Tesla service technicians will correct the cable adjustment for the left-side, fold-flat, second row, seat recliner mechanism, free of charge. The recall began on November 10, 2017. Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752. Tesla’s number for this recall is SB-17-13-004.
2017-04-19	PARKING BRAKE	Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling certain 2016 Model S and Model X vehicles. The electric parking brake calipers have an internal gear that may be improperly manufactured, possibly resulting in the gear fracturing during parking brake application or release. Remedy: Tesla will notify owners, and service centers will replace both the left and right electric parking brake calipers, free of charge. The recall began March 6, 2018. Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752. Tesla’s number for this recall is SB-17-33-002.
2021-01-29	BACK OVER PREVENTION:SOFTWARE \| EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TURN SIGNAL \| VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER/HVAC SYSTEM	Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling certain 2012-2018 Tesla Model S and 2016-2018 Model X vehicles with a center display equipped with a NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor and an 8GB eMMC NAND flash memory device. When the 8GB eMMC NAND flash memory device for the center display reaches lifetime wear, the eMMC controller will no longer be able to maintain the integrity of the filesystem, causing a failure in some of the center display functions. Remedy: Owners should ensure their vehicles are operating firmware release 2020.48.48.12 or newer, which will alert owners if the eMMC is approaching lifetime wear. Tesla will notify owners, and will replace the VCM daughterboard with one containing an enhanced eMMC controller, free of charge. The recall began March 29, 2021.

65 Investigations for 2017 Tesla Model X

On june 22, 2020, the office of defects investigations (odi) opened preliminary evaluation pe20-010 to investigate incidents of media control unit (mcu) failures resulting in loss of rearview camera in model year (my) 2012-2015 tesla model s vehicles equipped with the nvidia tegra 3 processor with an integrated 8gb emmc nand flash memory device. emmc nand flash devices have a finite lifespan based upon the number of program/erase (p/e) cycles. the subject mcu allegedly fails prematurely due to memory wear-out of the emmc nand flash. tesla used the same mcu with the tegra 3 processor in approximately 159 thousand 2012-2018 model s and 2016-2018 model x vehicles built by tesla through early-2018. in response to odi's information request (ir) for pe20-010, tesla provided odi with 2,399 complaints and field reports, 7,777 warranty claims, and 4,746 non-warranty claims related to mcu replacements. the data show failure rates over 30 percent in certain build months and accelerating failure trends after 3 to 4 years-in-service.according to tesla, for subject vehicles equipped with the nvidia tegra 3 processor with an integrated 8gb emmc nand flash memory device, the emmc nand cell hardware can fail when reaching lifetime wear, for which the emmc controller has no available blocks to recover. with this failure mode, the only recovery available is a replacement of the emmc device, achieved by physical part replacement of either the mcu assembly or visual control module subcomponent. tesla provided the effects of mcu failure on vehicle function which result in loss of rearview/backup camera, loss of hvac (defogging) setting controls (if the hvac status was off status prior to failure.) there is also an impact on the advanced driver assistance support (adas), autopilot system, and turn signal functionality due to the possible loss of audible chimes, driver sensing, and alerts associated with these vehicle functions. there are precedents for addressing defects that result in loss of either backup camera, defogging, or turn signal functions under safety recalls.tesla has implemented certain over-the-air or ota updates to subject vehicles to mitigate the effects of mcu failure. these updates include firmware changes to reduce memory usage of the subject memory card, improve emmc error correction and storage management strategies, changing the control logic for turn signal activation, and defaulting the hvac system to auto (71.6f) for drives after mcu failure to address windshield defogging. tesla indicated that the mcu failures are likely to continue to occur in subject vehicles as vehicles continue to operate and use available memory in the 8gb emmc nand flash memory until 100% of units have failed. an engineering analysis has been opened to further assess the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequences of the alleged defect.the voqs associated with the opening of this investigation are in the attachment to this resume.

On december 19, 2019, nhtsa received a petition from mr. brian sparks requesting that the agency "recall all [tesla] model s, model x, and model 3 vehicles produced from 2013 to the present" due to sudden unintended acceleration (sua). in his petition and follow-up submissions, the petitioner identified a total of 232 non-duplicative complaints to nhtsa, including 203 reporting crashes. on january 13, 2020, nhtsa's office of defects investigation (odi) opened defect petition dp20-001 to evaluate the petitioner’s request. odi's evaluation included reviews of all complaints and supporting information referenced by the petitioner, as well as 14 additional complaints to nhtsa related to sua crash allegations that were either not selected by the petitioner or were submitted after the petitioner's most recent submission. the review also included analyses of available crash data (edr, tesla log data, and/or video data) the agency acquired as part of the evaluation.after reviewing the available data, odi has not identified evidence that would support opening a defect investigation into sua in the subject vehicles. in every instance in which event data was available for review by odi, the evidence shows that sua crashes in the complaints cited by the petitioner have been caused by pedal misapplication. there is no evidence of any fault in the accelerator pedal assemblies, motor control systems, or brake systems that has contributed to any of the cited incidents. there is no evidence of a design factor contributing to increased likelihood of pedal misapplication. the theory provided of a potential electronic cause of sua in the subject vehicles is based upon inaccurate assumptions about system design and log data.nhtsa is authorized to issue an order requiring notification and remedy of a defect if the agency’s investigation shows a defect in design, construction, or performance of a motor vehicle that presents an unreasonable risk to safety. 49 u.s.c. §§ 30102(a)(9), 30118. since the information before the agency is not indicative of a vehicle-based defect, it is unlikely that any investigation opened because of granting this petition would result in an order concerning the notification and remedy of a safety-related defect. therefore, upon full consideration of the information presented in the petition and the potential risks to safety, the petition is denied. the denial of this petition does not foreclose the agency from taking further action if warranted or the potential for a future finding that a safety-related defect exists based upon additional information the agency may receive.the reference numbers for the complaints to nhtsa cited by the petitioner can be found in the petition submission documents in the public file for dp20-001. those complaints and the 14 complaints odi added to its evaluation can be viewed at nhtsa.gov. the reference numbers for the complaints added by odi are: 11385350, 11383955, 11383233, 11383180, 11378492, 11378458, 11302076, 11299698, 11290006, 11190595, 11174504, 11115496, 11096644 and 11000097. the attached report, further detailing nhtsa’s reasons for denial of the petition, will be published in the federal register.

Nhtsa's office of defects investigation (odi) has received 43 complaints alleging failure of the left or right front suspension fore links in tesla model year (my) 2015 through 2017 model s and my 2016 through 2017 model x vehicles. thirty-two (32) of the complaints involve failures that occurred during low-speed parking maneuvers (e.g., backing from driveway or parking space at speeds below 10 mph). eleven (11) incidents occurred while driving (e.g., incidents on roadways at speeds above 10 mph), including four at highway speeds. the complaints appear to indicate an increasing trend, with 34 complaints received in the last two years and three of the incidents at highway speeds reported within the last three months. in addition, odi has identified eight complaints that may involve front fore link failure, but have not been confirmed by repair records or photographs. the potential fore link failures were all reported in the last two years and include two incidents that occurred while driving. on february 10, 2017, tesla released a service bulletin (sb-17-31-001, "replace front suspension lower fore links") describing a manufacturing condition that may result in fore link failure. the bulletin describes the condition as follows: "some model s and model x vehicles may have been manufactured with front suspension fore links that may not meet tesla strength specifications. in the event of link failure, the driver can still maintain control of the vehicle but the tire may contact the wheel arch liner." the bulletin indicates that affected vehicles were "built between approximately january 19, 2016 and may 25, 2016." the complaints cited above include 41 vehicles built before (12) or after (29) the bulletin build range.the office of defects investigation has opened this preliminary evaluation to evaluate the scope, frequency and consequences of the alleged defect.the reports cited above can be reviewed at nhtsa.gov under the following reference numbers:11375236, 11374374, 11373580, 11373079, 11372979, 11372667, 11366414, 11360383, 11352228, 11351962, 11348941, 11343889, 11341996, 11341133, 11323803, 11323290, 11310679, 11289356, 11288480, 11270612, 11255176, 11253305, 11243782, 11243469, 11240524, 11235055, 11233752, 11228269, 11220932, 11220236, 11210000, 11197184, 11194559, 11194264, 11152089, 11120467, 11110981, 11075754, 11013497, 11013046, 10924050, 10898994, 10875120.possible fore link failures: 11366291, 11323577, 11280758, 11265885, 11253577, 11244971, 11205681, 11121921.
