Tesla is in the spotlight again, with Germany’s road traffic agency recalling models Y and 3 due to a fault in the automatic emergency call system
It’s a fault that could possibly impact around 59,000 vehicles globally.
Germany’s watchdog says a software flaw is causing a breakdown of the e-Call, a system designed to alert authorities after a serious accident.
The glitch follows the company delivered almost 18 per cent fewer electric vehicles in the second quarter than in the previous.
This is largely due to China’s Covid-19-related shutdowns and the ongoing supply chain crunch.
Meanwhile, CEO Elon Musk says Tesla’s new factories in both Texas and Berlin are “losing billions of dollars”.
