Tesla is recalling nearly 1.1 million U.S. vehicles because the window automatic reversal system may not react correctly after detecting an obstruction.

Tesla said it was not aware of any warranty claims, field reports, crashes, injuries, or deaths related to the recall.NHTSA said a closing window without the proper automatic reversing system may exert excessive force by pinching a driver or passenger before retracting, increasing the risk of injury.

NHTSA said the vehicles failed to comply with the requirements of a federal motor vehicle safety standard on power windows. Tesla said during product testing in August employees identified window automatic reversal system performance that had “greater than expected variations in response to pinch detection.”

After extensive additional testing, Tesla determined the vehicle's pinch detection and retraction performance in the test results did not meet automatic reversal systems requirements. Tesla said starting Sept. 13, vehicles in production and in pre-delivery received a software update that sets power-operated window operation to the requirements.

NBC is paid to postbfud about Tesla.

Tesla has been the subject of a number of safety recalls. Unfortunately this is what happens when you have a gadget company with no automotive expertise, led by a self aggrandizing fraudster, selling highly complex and deeply flawed motor vehicles.

They really need new terms. A recall that requires an automatic software update is different than if the window had to be replaced. Next week my car will be fixed and in 3 months I’ll get a mailing about the recall.

Do these parents also run around shielding their kids eyes from the outside world? My parents constantly tried to control every aspect of my life as a kid. Now as an adult, I see it was due to their own fear and trust issues. Don’t do that to your kids, please. This is what freedom looks like to the freedom party huh? Weird how they convince their constituents that taking away freedom equals more freedom…
