Shares of Tesla are down about 1% in pre-open Friday after the company filed a recall of nearly 200,000 vehicles in China.
Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. recalled some imported Model S electric vehicles with a production date from January 21, 2015 to November 18, 2020, with a total of 19,697 vehicles.
For vehicles within the scope of this recall, the alignment position of the front trunk latch and the latch may be slightly backward. Although this situation does not affect the locking of the primary latch, it may affect the locking of the secondary latch. When the primary latch is accidentally released, if the secondary latch is not locked, the front trunk cover may suddenly open during driving, affecting the driver's line of sight, increasing the risk of collision accidents and potential safety hazards.
Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. recalled a total of 35,836 imported Model 3 electric vehicles whose production date was from October 4, 2018 to November 20, 2019.
Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. recalled some domestic Model 3 electric vehicles with a production date from October 14, 2019 to December 27, 2020, totaling 144,208.
The trunk cover of vehicles within the scope of recall II and III may cause excessive wear of trunk harness after long-term repeated opening and closing. If the wear causes the separation of the inner core of the coaxial cable, the reversing image may not work normally, thus affecting the driver's field of vision when reversing. In extreme cases, it will increase the collision risk when reversing, and there are potential safety hazards.
