In the change of surprising events, 2021 may not turn into a great year for Tesla. Various technical errors in 475,000 vehicles forced Tesla Inc. To remember the cars in the US must remember almost half a million cars were quite bad, but as Bloomberg recorded, the figure was almost equivalent to Tesla’s delivery last year – and this applies to global delivery, not only those in the US This means Tesla is forced to remember almost as many cars because it can produce and send in the past year.

Two types of vehicles are influenced by withdrawal: Model 3 and Model S, although Model 3 is hit harder and is in most. Tesla plans to remember up to 356,309 models of 3 cars made between 2017 and 2020. There are also 119,009 vehicle models, all of 2014, which are being withdrawn due to technical defects.

While the technical errors found in these two Tesla models have the potential to be dangerous, apparently Tesla chose to act on time. The company receives 2,305 warranty claims that may be related to problems found in the model and model 3, but there have been no reports of injury or death caused by this defect.

Why is Tesla recalling Model 3 and Model S cars?

The problem with the model car is more serious, even though the memory affects smaller Tesla’s shipping portions. Tesla described this problem to the National Highway Safety Administration (NHTSA) in official submission. The hook of the front luggage in the car model has the potential not in harmony. According to Tesla, this means that the secondary hood hook will fail to work and the front hood can fly open mid-drive. Because this can block the view of the road driver, this problem has the potential to cause more accidents than problems with model 3 vehicles.

Although more vehicle 3 models are being drawn, apparently Tesla may do this optimally as a precautionary measure of safety. According to the threshold, Tesla’s estimation concluded that only 1 percent of the 3-car model would be influenced by this problem. When it comes to models, up to 14 percent of cars that are remembered can be influenced by problems with the hook of the front luggage that is not aligned.
