The 2019 Tesla Model Y has 3 recalls, the most serious involving seat belt anchor fasteners in both the front and second row that may not be properly secured, which can prevent the belts from holding occupants in a crash.
Both seat belt concerns affect mounting points: one involves the second-row belt retractors, and the other involves the front shoulder belts where they attach to the B-pillar. In either case, a loose or missing fastener means the belt may not restrain the occupant as intended. The third recall involves the instrument panel, where the Brake, Park, and ABS warning lights display in a font size that is too small, making those alerts harder to read while driving.
