Tesla recalls 200,000 vehicles because of a faulty backup camera


Tesla is recalling 200,000 vehicles due to a malfunctioning backup camera. The camera wouldn’t work when the car was in reverse, which is the whole point of those cameras.

Tesla says it delivered 1.8 million vehicles in 2023, so this recall accounts for more than 10 percent of the company’s yearly output. The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a statement on the matter and said that a software issue was to blame for the problem, according to Reuters. To that end, all of the recalled vehicles feature Tesla’s “Full Self-Driving” computer 4.0 and run software version 2023.44.30 through 2023.44.30.6, or 2023.44.100.
