WASHINGTON, ⁠April 6 (Reuters) - The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Monday it closed ⁠a probe into nearly 2.6 million Tesla vehicles over a feature allowing users ‌to move cars remotely after finding it was linked only to low-speed incidents.

The agency opened the probe into the "Actually Smart Summon" feature in early 2025 after reports of several crashes. The system allows users to move vehicles over short ​distances in parking areas or on private property, using ⁠a smartphone app.
