A Tesla Model 3 vehicle drives on Autopilot along the 405 highway in Westminster, California, US. NHTSA announced last month that it was opening up a query into whether Tesla’s over-the-air software update sufficiently prevented misuse after 20 more crashes occurred in the months after the recall. — Reuters
Tesla Inc is facing a July 1 deadline to furnish US regulators with information about its biggest-ever recall because drivers using Autopilot keep crashing while using the system.
In a letter posted on its website May 7, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration presses Tesla on how much mileage consumers are racking up using its driver-assistance system, and how many times drivers have been warned to put their hands on the wheel before and after the company’s December recall.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
