“As we continue our investigation of the root cause, out of an abundance of caution, we are revising charge and thermal management settings on Model S and Model X vehicles via an over-the-air software update that will begin rolling out today, to help further protect the battery and improve battery longevity.” Tesla said in a statement on Wednesday.

Tesla said its investigation with authorities into that incident so far found only a few of the car’s battery modules affected and that the majority of the battery pack was undamaged.
