Tesla is recalling over 800,000 vehicles due to faulty seat belt chimes

Tesla is recalling over 800,000 vehicles due to faulty seat belt chimes

Tesla has issued a recall for 817,143 cars due to an issue with the seat belt chime. The Associated Press have reported the news this week and said that it is affecting all versions of the Model Y and Model 3, as well as some newer versions of the Model S and Model X. This software error could not allow the audible chime to sound if it detects a user driving with no seat belt on.

However, even though Tesla has issued a recall – the company can fix the issue with software, with an over the air update planned for sometime this month. While there isn’t an audible chime, there is still an icon on the screen and there as of yet, are no reported injuries as a result.
