Tesla recalls 40k cars over patch that broke power steering
Tesla has initiated a voluntary recall of more than 40,000 Model S and Model X vehicles thanks to a bad firmware update that could cause the cars to lose power steering"due to forces from external road dynamics," also known as bumps.
Per Tesla's own investigations as reported to the NHTSA, the software caused at least 314 vehicles to misclassify bumps and potholes as unexpected torque on the EPAS system, leading to"reduced or lost power steering assist," Tesla said in its NHTSA report. The Musk-owned automaker deployed firmware version 2022.36.5 to revert the calibration values on October 19, and hasn't been made aware of any injuries or deaths caused by the issue. As of November 1, over 97 percent of affected vehicles have installed the necessary firmware update, Tesla said, but added that it still intends to mail notification letters to affected owners.
