NHTSA Campaign 23V422000

STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR

Issued by Tesla, Inc. · Reported Jun 13, 2023 · 36 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling certain 2023 Semi vehicles. The door open warning indicator only displays when the vehicle's parking brake is not engaged and the side door is not fully latched. In addition, the door closure warning system allows the operator to dismiss the notification that the side door is unlatched, which could result in driving with an unsecured door. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 206, "Door Locks and Door Retention Components."

Consequence

An operator may be unaware of an unsecured door and begin driving, increasing the risk of injury to occupants.

Remedy

Tesla has released an over-the-air (OTA) software update, free of charge. All affected vehicles were repaired by June 2023. Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752.
