Tesla recalls 125K vehicles to fix issue with seat belt warning system
NY Post
Elon Musk-led Tesla is recalling more than 125,000 vehicles in the US to fix a defect with the seatbelt warning system in some of its car models, federal safety regulators said Friday.
The affected Tesla vehicles experienced an issue in which “the seat belt warning light and audible chime may not activate as intended” when the driver is unbelted, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said.
Tesla will fix the problem with an over-the-air-software update at no cost to vehicle owners.
The update is expected to occur at some point in June.
“The software remedy will remove dependency on the driver seat occupancy switch from the software logic and only rely on driver seat belt buckle and ignition status to activate the seat belt reminder signals,” the NHTSA said.
The recall applies to certain 2012-2024 Tesla Model S, 2015-2024 Model X, 2017-2023 Model 3 and 2020-2023 Model Y vehicles, according to a release.

The killing of Iran’s tyrannical Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on Saturday in an unprecedented joint military attack by the US and Israel called Operation Epic Fury set off widespread celebrations from Iranians around the world — as President Trump said it would give them their “greatest chance” to “take back the country.” Meanwhile, in Iran, a lack of internet has made it impossible for Iranians to easily communicate daily conditions. Over a period of three days, with limited VPN connection, an eyewitness currently in Tehran — who, for her safety, is concealing her identity — shared her account of life under a country in the midst of battle with The Post’s Natasha Pearlman.
