More than one million vehicles are being recalled by Tesla.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) confirmed Tesla’s recall in a letter to the company.
“Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling certain 2017-2022 Model 3, 2020-2021 Model Y, and 2021-2022 Model S and Model X vehicles. The window automatic reversal system may not react correctly after detecting an obstruction,” the letter reads.
It continues, “As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 118, ‘Power-Operated Window Systems.'”
The letter noted the consequence of the automatic windows not working correctly is they may “exert excessive force by pinching a driver or passenger before retracting, increasing the risk of injury.”
Additionally, the letter explains Tesla will perform an “over-the-air (OTA) software update of the automatic window reversal system, free of charge.”
The company is expected to mail owner notification letters on November 15.
According to the letter, potentially 1,096,762 Tesla vehicles are affected by the recall.
This is not the first time Tesla has recalled vehicles.
In February, it was reported the company would be recalling 53,822 vehicles with its “full self-driving” driver-assist feature.
CNN noted it was intentionally programmed to slowly roll through stop signs in certain cases.
