Tesla is recalling over 40,000 vehicles to remedy a power steering problem

This is the 17th recall issued by Tesla in 2022. It’s not quite as widespread as a September recall over defective power window operation, which impacted almost 1.1 million vehicles in the United States. However, the faults have impacted around 3.4 million EVs throughout the company’s portfolio. There have been issues with seat belt chimes, overheated infotainment systems, and a Full Self Driving bug that allows cars to drive past stop signs. The business also had to modify its Boombox function due to concerns that external audio playing may overpower required low-speed noises.
