Tesla is recalling 53 units of the 2021 Model S equipped with specific exterior side rearview mirrors (part numbers 1622232-00-B and 1622233-00-B). The driver-side mirrors were manufactured with convex curved glass instead of flat glass, and the passenger-side mirrors are missing the required 'Objects in Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear' warning text. Tesla Service will replace these mirrors with compliant versions free of charge.
The use of incorrect mirror glass can cause a driver to misjudge the actual distance and speed of other vehicles behind or beside them. This visual distortion increases the likelihood of a collision during lane changes or merging.
Free replacement of exterior side rearview mirrors.
