WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 (Reuters) – The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on Wednesday asked Tesla Inc to recall 158,000 Model S and Model X vehicles over multimedia control unit failures that could pose safety risks causing the touch screens to malfunction.
The auto safety agency made the unusual request in an official letter to Tesla on Wednesday after a safety probe was upgraded in November. NHTSA said the issue could result in the loss of the rear camera image display when reversing and reduced rear visibility when reversing, as well as the autopilot driver assistance system.
