NHTSA recall 21V387000
Service Brakes, Hydraulic · Tesla, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling certain 2019-2021 Model 3 and 2020-2021 Model Y vehicles. The brake caliper bolts may be loose, allowing the brake caliper to separate and contact the wheel rim.
Why it matters: Contact with the rim may cause a loss of tire pressure, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Tesla service will inspect and tighten, or replace the caliper bolts as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 23, 2021.
