2021 TESLA MODEL Y Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2021 Tesla Model Y has 7 recalls, the most serious being two suspension defects: fasteners securing the front suspension lateral link can loosen and allow the link to separate, and front and rear suspension knuckles can fracture, either of which can cause sudden loss of vehicle control. Seatbelt anchoring is a concern in two separate areas. The fasteners securing the second-row seatbelt retractors may not be properly attached, and the front shoulder belt anchors at the b-pillar may have the same issue, leaving occupants without full restraint protection in a crash. On the driver assistance side, cameras wired with swapped connections can cause automatic emergency braking and lane-keeping assist to miss crossing objects or tight curves. A software recall affects Autosteer across a wide range of Tesla vehicles: under certain conditions the system can allow drivers to become inattentive for longer than intended, or fail to recognize when Autosteer cannot safely continue, reducing the driver's readiness to take over. One or both taillights can also intermittently go dark, making the vehicle harder for following drivers to see.
