Tesla is recalling 12,963 vehicles in the U.S. due to a defect in a battery pack component that could lead to a sudden loss of drive power, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Wednesday.
Reuters reports that Elon Musk’s Tesla is facing a new challenge as it announces a recall of 12,963 vehicles in the United States. The NHTSA stated on Wednesday that the recall is due to a defect in a battery pack component that could potentially result in a sudden loss of drive power, increasing the risk of accidents.
The affected vehicles include certain 2025 Model 3 and 2026 Model Y cars. The issue lies within a specific battery pack contactor, which, if faulty, could cause the driver to lose the ability to accelerate the vehicle, posing a significant safety risk. Tesla has assured that it will replace the affected battery pack contactor free of charge for all impacted vehicles.
As of October 7, Tesla had identified 36 warranty claims and 26 field reports related to this condition. However, the company stated that it was unaware of any collisions, injuries, or fatalities linked to the defect. The recall is a proactive measure to ensure the safety of Tesla’s customers and to maintain the company’s reputation for producing high-quality, reliable electric vehicles.
