Tesla is recalling more than 1 million vehicles over concerns with automatic systems for car windows that can pinch a driver or passenger and cause injury when closing.
In a letter to Tesla, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) confirmed the company’s notice that it is recalling the Tesla Model 3 for the years 2017 to 2022, the Tesla Model Y for 2020-2021 and the 2021-2022 Model S and Model X vehicles.
In those models, the automatic reversal system for windows does not adequately detect an obstruction, such as a person’s arm or hand, and can continue to roll up and injure a driver or passenger.

I would think hand cranked windows would be better for the environment!
That is absolutely horrifying. I’m going to assume this “feature” cannot be disabled. Therefore there is no guarantee that the product will remain in the condition it was purchased in the future.

13 Reasons Why People Put Others Down
1. To make themselves feel better.
As backwards as it may sound, these people feel better about themselves by making others feel worse.
They will typically have low self-esteem, and their misguided way of boosting it is to take aim at another person.
Even though they, themselves, are insecure, a common technique they’ll use is to pinpoint the insecurities of others.
Their ego will get temporary relief from its own pain by inflicting hurt upon someone else.
Of course, this relief does not last long, and so the perpetrator is always on the lookout for ways to put people down.
“I would think hand cranked windows would be better for the environment!”
Hand cranking causes the cranker to exert expelling more CO2.
Agreed. If only someone could invent it!
I’m waiting for the first Tesla repo that drives itself back to the dealership.
Some might. Mine don't.
RX 450h is much higher, but has a serious price tag.
Fortunately, not even one ICE car in the entire history of the automobile industry has ever experienced any issue whatsoever. LOL. Even so, the entire global auto industry continues persistently transitioning from antiquated ICE to technologically rapidly-advancing EV. Go figure.
“That is absolutely horrifying.”
What is?
“Keep your dick out of the window track.”
I believe that is in the vehicle operating manual under, “other things you shouldn’t do which we have to explain to you.”
Because it was Tesla customers that section is not applicable.
Dang it…I hadn’t noticed that before, but now I can’t un-see it. 😆
From your article..
A total of 363 vehicles were recalled..
So, if one wants to compare these recalls, which is your intent, let’s compare..
1.1 million Tesla’s vs 363 Ford
Your Tesla emblem is showing..
“Because it was Tesla customers that section is not applicable.”
Yes. Tesla owners are smart enough on there own to not do such idiotic acts.
Those 363 spent more time at the service center than all the Tesla owners.
Poor news for Tesla makes TeslaGator go on major defense.
Like his/her/its life depends on it..
It is low class to refer to the person you are speaking to in the third person
“Poor news for Tesla makes TeslaGator go on major defense.
Like his/her/its life depends on it..”
LOL! I get a kick out of reading all the anti-technology freaks’ rants!
