The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating crashes involving Tesla's Actually Smart Summon feature, which the auto company released in September. In a report summary, the NHTSA said its Office of Defects Investigation has opened a preliminary evaluation based on a crash complaint it received, as well as, "at least 3 media reports of apparently similar crashes." The NHTSA says the crashes happened when the feature failed to detect posts or parked vehicles.
The NHTSA estimates that nearly 2.6 million Tesla vehicles, including Model S, Model 3 and Model Y autos with full self-driving, could be affected. The agency said that Tesla has not reported any incidents related to the feature itself.
A representative for Tesla did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
