Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Tesla, Inc. is recalling 239,382 vehicles, including certain 2024-2025 Model 3 and Model S, 2023-2025 Model X, and 2023-2025 Model Y vehicles. A defect in the computer circuit board can cause a short circuit, resulting in the loss of the rearview camera image. Tesla is providing a free over-the-air (OTA) software update and will replace affected or stressed computer hardware as needed.

Risk

If the rearview camera fails to display an image, the driver's rear visibility is significantly reduced, which increases the risk of a crash while reversing. This failure also means the vehicles do not meet the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 111, 'Rear Visibility.'

What You Should Do

  1. Check if your vehicle is a 2024-2025 Model 3 or Model S, or a 2023-2025 Model X or Model Y.
  2. Look for an available over-the-air (OTA) software update on your vehicle's touchscreen and install it immediately if available.
  3. Wait for Tesla to contact you if your vehicle requires a physical hardware replacement; Tesla will identify vehicles that experienced or are at risk of circuit board failure.
  4. Tesla released an over-the-air (OTA) software update, free of charge. Tesla will also identify any vehicles that experienced a circuit board failure, or stress that may lead to a circuit board failure, and replace the affected computers, free of charge.
  5. For further questions, contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752 and reference recall number SB-25-00-001.
  6. Contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov for additional information.
