The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has opened a defect investigation into approximately 2.4 million Tesla vehicles equipped with the Full Self-Driving (FSD) system. This probe follows reports of four crashes, including one that resulted in a pedestrian fatality.
The investigation will examine whether the FSD system's engineering controls adequately respond to reduced roadway visibility conditions. The affected vehicles include Model S, Model X, Model 3, Model Y, and Cybertruck models.
This large-scale federal inquiry poses significant regulatory, legal, and reputational risks for Tesla, potentially impacting the future deployment and public perception of its autonomous driving technology.
