Tesla to recall over 14,500 Model Y SUVs in US over missing weight certification label
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration stated this absence could lead to customers overloading the vehicles, increasing crash risk.
Tesla is recalling 14,575 Model Y SUVs across the United States because some vehicles were delivered without a required certification label showing weight specifications, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The automaker said it will inspect affected vehicles and install the missing labels at no cost to owners.
Federal safety regulators warned that the absence of the label could lead some drivers to overload their vehicles beyond recommended limits, potentially increasing the likelihood of a crash.
The issue has not been linked to any reported accidents, injuries, or fatalities, NHTSA said.
