TAG: Correspondent Jeremy House reporting. The recall covers the 2012 through 2023 Model S, the 2016 through 2023 Model X, the 2017 through 2023 Model 3, the 2019 through 2024 Model Y and the 2024 Cybertruck. Tesla has already started releasing the software update.
—————————————–
VERBATIM: Documents posted by U.S. safety regulators say the recall will be done with an online software update. The agency says in the documents that the brake, park and antilock brake warning lights have a smaller font size than required by federal safety standards. That can make critical safety information hard to read, increasing the risk of a crash.
