Tesla is recalling 137 of its 2022-2023 Model Y vehicles because a fastener connecting the steering wheel to the steering column may be loose. This defect can lead to the steering wheel completely disconnecting while the vehicle is in operation, which can cause a loss of steering control and increase the likelihood of a crash. Tesla will inspect the fastener and replace it if necessary at no cost to the owner.
A loose fastener allows the steering wheel to detach from the steering column, resulting in an immediate loss of vehicle control and a high risk of a collision.
Free inspection and replacement of the steering wheel fastener.
