Continuing crashes since last year's recall are raising questions about the adequacy of the Austin-based automaker's remedy for problems with its car.
The U.S. government’s auto safety agency is investigating whether last year’s recall of Tesla’s Autopilot driving system did enough to make sure drivers pay attention to the road. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says in documents posted on its website Friday that Tesla Inc. has reported additional crashes involving Autopilot since the recall, raising concerns at the agency about the effectiveness of the remedy.
Tesla recalls more than 2 million vehicles to fix system that monitors drivers using Autopilot The recall fix involves an online software update to increase warnings to drivers.
