Tesla recalls several 2020-2024 models

This defect could result in the hood swinging open unexpectedly, obstructing the driver's view and significantly increasing the risk of a collision

In a major 2024 move, Tesla recalls 1.85 million vehicles in the United States, spotlighting a critical software glitch that failed to alert drivers to an unlatched hood—a recipe for potential road chaos, Reuters reports.

This defect could result in the hood swinging open unexpectedly, obstructing the driver’s view and significantly increasing the risk of a collision, as highlighted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Which 2024 Tesla cars are being recalled?

The recall spans several popular models, including the 2021-2024 Model 3, Model S, Model X, and the 2020-2024 Model Y. These vehicles are equipped with hood latches manufactured by China’s Magna Closures Co Ltd. The problem first surfaced through customer complaints in China about hoods that opened without warning on certain Model 3 and Model Y vehicles starting in March. Although fewer incidents were reported in Europe and North America, Tesla took proactive measures by initiating latch hardware recovery and in-service vehicle inspections.

In response to the issue, Tesla began deploying an over-the-air software update in mid-June, which was designed to alert drivers if the hood is not securely latched. This initiative came after Tesla conducted extensive engineering studies in the affected regions last month, leading to the decision to issue a recall earlier this month.

Despite the recall’s scope, Tesla has reported only three incidents in the United States, with no crashes or injuries linked to the issue thus far. This recall is Tesla’s largest since December, when nearly all of its U.S. vehicles were recalled to install new safeguards in the Autopilot system—a decision that has come under scrutiny after reports of 20 crashes involving vehicles with the updated system.
