Tesla is recalling over 2 million cars in the U.S. following a two-year investigation into around 1,000 accidents involving the Autopilot system.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) found issues with the system not effectively keeping drivers engaged.
The recall aims to update and fix Autopilot features, especially Autosteer, in Model S, Model X, Model 3, and Model Y vehicles from 2012 to 2023.
The NHTSA highlighted concerns about Autosteer falling short in preventing driver misuse, as evidenced by at least eight fatal or serious Tesla crashes.
The recall comes after calls for limitations on Autopilot, but some experts view it as a compromise, not addressing the core problem.
