NHTSA recall 22V843000
Air Bags · Tesla, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling certain 2021-2023 Model X vehicles. The restraint control module (rcm) calibration may cause the front passenger air bag to deploy incorrectly during certain low speed crashes. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "occupant crash protection."
Why it matters: A passenger air bag that does not deploy as intended increases the risk of injury during a crash.
The fix: Tesla has released an over-the-air (ota) software update to recalibrate the rcm, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 14, 2023.
