Tesla Car Safety

US auto safety regulators said they had identified a 12th crash involving Tesla vehicles using advanced driver assistance systems in incidents involving emergency vehicles.

The release of the safety tool comes days after the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) opened an investigation of Tesla's Autopilot driving assistance feature following a series of crashes involving Tesla models and emergency vehicles.

Aurora — the self-driving startup founded by former Tesla, Uber, and Google executives — has released what it says is the industry’s first tool for evaluating whether and when autonomous trucks and cars are safe to deploy on public roads without a human behind the wheel.

Tesla is hiring managers for legal and external relations teams in China, according to a job post on its WeChat account, as the electric car maker faces public scrutiny in the country over safety and customer service complaints.

The US government has opened a formal investigation into Tesla's Autopilot partially automated driving system after a series of collisions with parked emergency vehicles.

Tesla has dropped radar sensors from its semi-autonomous driving system, Autopilot, raising concerns over the safety of the camera-only version, Tesla Vision.

Electric vehicle maker Tesla Inc, facing scrutiny in China over safety and customer service complaints, is boosting its engagement with mainland regulators and beefing up its government relations team, industry sources said.

Tesla will recall nearly 135,000 cars to repair a computer memory failure that could pose a safety risk, US regulators said.

Tesla Inc has agreed to recall 134,951 Model S and Model X vehicles with touchscreen displays that could fail and raise the risk of a crash after U.S. auto safety regulators sought the recall last month, according to a recall posted on a government website.

A KBA spokesman said that German authorities were in contact with the NHTSA and watchdog has launched its investigation into the matter.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on Wednesday asked Tesla Inc to recall 158,000 Model S and Model X vehicles over media control unit (MCU) failures that could pose safety risks by leading to touchscreen displays not working.

Tesla Inc's Autopilot has ranked sixth in 10 driver assistance systems evaluated in a European safety assessment, scoring low on its ability to keep drivers engaged.

Auto manufacturers try to emulate Tesla’s success as they race to make self-driving cars widely available within five years. This gives way to concerns around the vehicles’ safety and performance standards.

Tesla Inc and officials in California have resolved their acrimonious clash over safety procedures at the automaker's sole U.S. assembly plant with a deal that allows production to resume as early as Monday, county officials said.
