Tesla is recalling 260 of its 2026 Model Y vehicles because a wiring defect may cause the reverse lights to fail. When the vehicle is in reverse, these lights may not illuminate as required by federal safety standards. Tesla Service centers will replace the reverse lights and the wiring harness at no cost to owners.
If the reverse lights do not turn on, pedestrians and other drivers may not be alerted that the vehicle is backing up, and the driver will have reduced visibility. This significantly increases the risk of a crash.
Free replacement of reverse lights and wiring harness.
Tesla recall number SB-25-17-011; NHTSA Campaign Number 25V658.
