Tesla said on Friday it was recalling about 239,000 vehicles over an issue that could cause the rear-view camera to not display an image, but it could be resolved by an over-the-air software update.
The development comes days after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a probe into 2.6 million Tesla vehicles in the U.S. over reports of crashes involving a feature that allows users to move their cars remotely.

Tesla said it was investigating to determine whether any affected vehicles have experienced stress that could result in a shorting failure.
If a vehicle’s component has faced such an issue or has shown signs of stress before the installation of a specific software update, Tesla will replace the car’s computer, free of charge, it said.

The issue affects 2024-25 Model 3 and Model S vehicles and 2023-25 Model X and Model Y, it said.
Tesla had the most number of recalls in the U.S. with 5.1 million vehicles affected, but all issues can be addressed through a software update, recall management firm Bizzycar said in a report.
Advanced vehicle technologies led to a spike in electrical system recalls last year, affecting 6.3 million vehicles in 2024, according to the report.
