Tesla has
issued a recall for nearly 700,000 vehicles due to a tire pressure light issue.
The electric car company is recalling certain 2024 Cybertruck, 2017-2025 Model 3 and 2020-2025 Model Y vehicles because the tire pressure monitoring system warning light “may not remain illuminated between drive cycles, failing to warn the driver of low tire pressure,” the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Thursday.
The NHTSA released their safety recall report on Tuesday, noting that “driving with improperly inflated tires increases the risk of a crash.”
The recall affects around 694,000 vehicles.
Tesla said as a remedy it released an over-the-air software update free of charge.
