Tesla Recalls 1.6 Million Cars in China Over Autopilot and Door Latch Issues

Latest recall marks the largest in China's history, following a series of recalls due to various safety concerns over the years.

Tesla has issued a recall for 1.6 million cars sold in China due to issues with the Autopilot driver-assistance system and door latch controls during collisions.
Tesla's Model Y was the most recalled car in the US from 2014 to 2023, with 24 recalls during that period.
Other Tesla recalls have been due to steering problems, defective rearview cameras, mounting bracket manufacturing flaws, failure of low brake fluid warning lights, weak third and second-row seats, steering wheels that fall off, faulty suspension parts, and doors that unlock during a crash.
The latest recall in China is the largest in the country's history and affects Tesla's Model S, X, 3, and Y vehicles.
Despite the numerous recalls, Tesla remains the second-best seller in the booming Chinese market for electric vehicles.
