Tesla is facing another recall in the US. This latest one affects 120,423 Model S and X vehicles produced from 2021 to 2023. The problem is that the doors may unlock and open during a crash, increasing the risk of injury and violating a federal safety standard. Tesla has already fixed the issue with a free over-the-air update and owner notification letters are expected to go out in February.

This recall comes on the heels of another one that involved more than two million EVs with Autopilot safety issues. Tesla also addressed that problem with a free OTA update that added more controls and alerts to ensure driver attention.
