Tesla Model X 100D 5YJXCBE27JF131490

In firmware releases from version 2022.36 to 22.36.4, the calibration values of the Electric Power Assist Steering (EPAS) system were changed. As the calibration values were adjusted, in rare cases, forces from various external road conditions (such as potholes or speed bumps) may be incorrectly classified as unexpected steering assist torque, causing the power steering assist to decrease or be lost. While this does not affect steering control, it may increase the risk of collision, especially at low speeds, as more steering effort is required, leading to a potential recall.

<*Production dates by vehicle model>

Model S: 2017.08.24~2020.08.

Model X: 2018.10.03~2020.08.11

Firmware update to version 2022.36.5 or later via OTA (Over-the-air) (Go to Controls > Software on the touchscreen to update)

<*This corrective action is carried out through a firmware update, so a visit to the service center is not required.>

Due to an error in the battery management system software, the vehicle's output may be cut off. In such cases, a BMS software error can cause power loss while driving, and if power is lost during driving, the vehicle may gradually stop, potentially leading to unforeseen accidents, which is the reason for the recall.

<*However, for some vehicles, this action may have already been completed and no further action may be necessary, so please contact the manufacturer’s customer service center for detailed information.>

When the driver uses the AutoSteer feature, the devices that provide sufficient warnings to the driver and limit the function if the driver does not actively participate in driving may be insufficient. In such cases, if the driver misuses the driver assistance function and does not maintain continuous responsibility while driving the vehicle, or fails to recognize whether the feature is activated/deactivated, the risk of collision may increase, leading to a potential recall.

Model S: 2017.03.28~2023.10.20

Model X: 2018.09.14~2023.10.20

Model 3: 2019. 07.27~2022.10.05

Model Y: 2020.12.11~2023.11.15

Update to version 2023.44.30 or later via OTA (over-the-air)

1. Apply the option to simplify Autosteer activation and deactivation: Activation and deactivation changed from 2 steps -> 1 step

2. Improved driver monitoring alerts (applies only to Model 3/Y)

 - Increased warning text size and moved warning screen from bottom -> top

3. Autosteer will be disabled for one week if incorrect driver usage is detected

 - Model 3Y (Year: 2019-2023) / SX (Year: 2023) (Interior camera function on): 5 times

 - Model SX (Year: 2017-2020) (Interior camera function off): 3 times

4. Increase driver monitoring when approaching traffic lights using Autosteer in areas that are not highways

If the size of the Brake, Park, and ABS indicator letters on the dashboard is smaller than 3.2mm, drivers may find it difficult to notice when these indicators light up, which could potentially increase the risk of a collision, leading to a recall.
