Tesla, Inc. is recalling 26 of its 2023 Model 3 and Model Y vehicles because the pyrotechnic battery disconnect may be defective. This component is designed to shut off high voltage in the event of an emergency, and a failure could prevent the vehicle from properly isolating the high voltage battery. Tesla Service will replace the defective part for all affected owners at no cost.
If the pyrotechnic battery disconnect fails after a crash or the detection of an electrical fault, the vehicle's high voltage battery may not be isolated. This significantly increases the risk of electrical shock and potential injury to occupants or emergency responders.
Tesla Service will replace the pyrotechnic battery disconnect free of charge.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
