Tesla is recalling 30,000 Model X vehicles due to defective airbag performance

Tesla has recalled 29,348 Model X cars because its airbags may activate erroneously in certain conditions. This recall applies to Model X vehicles built for US customers between 2021 and 2023. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) recall notice (PDF), the restraint control module calibration on those particular cars may cause the frontal passenger airbag to deploy “in an unexpected configuration during certain low-speed crash occurrences.”
