Recently there was news that Tesla is inBeauty120,423 vehicles are being recalled. The reason for this is that the side doors may be unlocked in the event of a collision, increasing the risk of injury to the occupants. The affected models are the 2021-2023 Model S and X, and they will fix the issue by upgrading the software remotely. By the way, this is Tesla's second recall in December. Previously, they recalled more than 2 million vehicles due to FSD autonomous driving issues, including Model S, Model X, Model 3 and Model Y from various years.
Crash unlocks the car door?Herein lies the problem. What's going on?It turned out that the autopilot systems of these vehicles were unlocked too "smart", leading to a series of problems. Yes, you heard it right, it's just too unlocked!
A spokesman for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said their investigation found that autonomous driving sometimes does not guarantee that drivers will always be alert when they start it, and that there are safety risks. As for Tesla, they released a new version on April 30, 2023, which improved the visibility of visual warnings through OTA upgrades, and changed the operation that originally required two taps of the joystick to start automatic driving to just one tap.
At first, this issue did not attract much attention. After all, Tesla's Autopilot system has always been very stable and reliable. However, as time went on, more and more problems began to surface. Some car owners have reported that their vehicles will suddenly accelerate or brake in autonomous driving mode, which is very uncomfortable. There are also car owners who say their vehicles will ignore traffic lights and other traffic signals and rush straight over. These questions are like a nightmare!
In fact, the controversy over Tesla's FSD function has not stopped in recent years. In February, the system may not be able to quickly adapt to changes in speed limits, or fail to fully account for the driver's speed adjustments, which could lead to overspeeding, increasing the risk of vehicle collisions. Tesla recalled 362,758 vehicles in the U.S. and resolved the issue with an OTA upgrade.
I heard that Tesla has been doing things again recently?That's right, it's that super-smart Tesla. Did you know that they recently recalled more than 120,000 vehicles!Isn't that an exaggeration?Let me tell you the story of this "smart unlock".
The story begins with Tesla's Autopilot self-driving system, which is a thing. In 2014, it came out, and then in 2020, their FSD advanced fully automated driving assistance was also launched. It's like a super smart robot that can automatically change lanes, get in and out of highways, recognize traffic lights and traffic signs, and even help you park!It's just so cool!
The crux of the story lies in this "pay". To use this autonomous driving system, the owner has to pay for it. You can choose to pay 1 lump sum$50,000, or a subscription fee of $199 per month. It's not a small amount of money, but it's well spent for those looking for technology and convenience.
Faced with these problems, Tesla finally couldn't sit still. They decided to recall more than 120,000 vehicles to address these potential safety hazards. This recall can be described as a twist and turn!First of all, Tesla officials did not publicly admit the existence of these problems, but only quietly investigated and repaired them. This has confused and disappointed a lot of people because they have always thought that Tesla is a very honest and transparent brand.
Then, just halfway through the recall, there was a sudden report that Tesla's CEO Elon Musk personally participated in the recall and apologized personally. This news is like a bomb that detonates the whole social **!People expressed their shock and anger because they never thought Tesla would have such a problem.
Tesla has finally publicly admitted its mistake and offered free repairs to affected owners. They also promised to upgrade and improve the autonomous driving system to ensure that similar problems do not happen again. This shift has led to a renewed trust and affection for Tesla.
This incident tells us a truth: although technology has advanced, we cannot blindly pursue intelligence and convenience. Tesla's recall is a vivid example. We need to be more rational and cautious about these new technologies, and we also need companies to be more responsible in dealing with the interests of consumers. Only in this way can we truly enjoy the convenience and happiness brought by technology.
Tesla's recall of more than 120,000 vehicles has brought us a lot of inspiration. Whether it is a business or an individual, we need to be vigilant and rational, and not blindly pursue intelligence and convenience. Only in this way can we ensure the safety and interests of ourselves and others.
