In 2024 , Tesla 's five core models have all seen recalls issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration ( NHTSA ) Issues range from software glitches to hardware malfunctions.

With safety and innovation at the forefront, Tesla ’s response to these recalls showcases the company's ability to handle concerns and keep roads as safe as possible.

The Model Y , along with several other Tesla models, was impacted by a recall related to improperly sized fonts for critical warning lights on the instrument panel.

The Model X was similarly affected by a malfunction in its seat belt warning system.

Six Cybertruck recalls have been issued, with a fault in the drive inverter causing a complete loss of power to the wheels.

The Cybertruck ’s accelerator pedal pad was found to be prone to dislodging, potentially causing unintended acceleration if the pedal becomes trapped by the interior trim.

A potential failure of the windshield wiper motor due to excessive electrical current led to another recall.

Tesla has since reinforced quality checks to ensure such cosmetic and functional issues are less likely to occur in future production.
