Tesla Issues Major Vehicle Recall Over Tire Pressure Concerns

Tesla has announced a wide-reaching recall affecting nearly 700,000 of its electric vehicles, including several years of Model 3, Model Y, and the cutting-edge Cybertruck lineup. Regulators say the tire pressure monitoring system might not warn drivers when their tires are dangerously under-inflated, potentially increasing the risk of accidents.
The issue came to light this November, pushing Tesla to roll out a free, over-the-air software update to fix the flaw. While no injuries or crashes have been tied directly to this defect, company officials are taking no chances, determined to safeguard their growing customer base.
With owner notification letters expected early next year, Tesla’s move is yet another reminder that even high-tech rides need careful monitoring. As the brand continues to expand and release new models, all eyes are on how swiftly it can address safety hurdles and keep trust on track.
