Tesla is under investigation by the NHTSA for fixing issues with the Autopilot software

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) confirmed on Friday that the safety regulatory agency has begun investigating whether Tesla's recall of over 2 million vehicles last December to install a new autopilot system is sufficient. The recall for software fixes covers Model Y, X, S, 3, and Cybertruck vehicles equipped with Autopilot produced in the United States from 2012 to 2024. Following preliminary test results on repaired vehicles and concerns that vehicles with the recall software update may be involved in collision incidents, NHTSA initiated the investigation. While Tesla has released software updates to address potential issues, NHTSA cited Tesla's statement that some remedies require owners to opt in and allow drivers to revert versions at any time. In December last year, Tesla stated that its largest-ever recall was to better ensure driver attention when using its advanced driver assistance systems
