Two youths charged with second degree murder | SaltWire #newsupdate #halifax #police #newstodayWASHINGTON -U.S. auto safety regulators said Friday they have opened an investigation into whether Tesla's recall of more than 2 million vehicles announced in December to install new Autopilot safeguards is adequate.

The agency said Tesla has issued software updates to address issues that appear related to its concerns but has not made them"a part of the recall or otherwise determined to remedy a defect that poses an unreasonable safety risk." The new recall investigation covers Model Y, X, S, 3 and Cybertruck vehicles in the U.S. equipped with Autopilot produced between the 2012 and 2024 model years, NHTSA said.

The auto safety agency noted Friday that during its Autopilot safety probe it first launched in August 2021 it identified at least 13 Tesla crashes involving one or more death and many more involving serious injuries in which"foreseeable driver misuse of the system played an apparent role.
