Tesla recalls Cybertrucks over wheels, over 200k cars for camera failure

Tesla is recalling 173 Cybertrucks because cracking in the rotor could cause the wheel stud to separate from the wheel hub, increasing the risk of a crash and injury. The recall includes model year 2024-2026 Cybertrucks with 18-inch steel wheels. In its report, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said that rough roads and cornering may strain the stud hole in the wheel rotor causing cracks to form and with continued driving the wheel stud could eventually separate from the wheel hub. Wheel stud separation may affect vehicle controllability, increasing the risk of a collision. On affected vehicles, Tesla will replace the front and rear brake rotors, hubs, and lug nuts with more durable ones at no cost to vehicle owners. The manufacturer's recall number is SB-26-33-003. Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752. Tesla is also recalling more than 200,000 Model Y, Model S Model X and Model 3 electric vehicles because of a software issue that renders t

Tesla to bring humanoid robot Optimus to India at 'appropriate' time

American electric carmaker Tesla will bring its humanoid robot, Optimus to India at the right time, a senior company official said on Wednesday. The company will also look at bringing its vertically integrated energy solution business to the country at an appropriate time, Tesla chief for APAC region Isabel Fan told reporters here. She said Tesla will start volume production of Optimus later this year in the US. "Humanoid robots will be big part of our life in the future, " Fan said. Humanoid robots would have several uses, including as a companion or to execute "dangerous task" that a human would not prefer to do, besides providing home medical requirement support, she noted. "I have a commitment when it (time) comes right on the things (as) you have seen (in) other markets, we want to bring to India. That's the goal," Fan said referring to the company's humanoid robot. With the help of robots human lives will be much easier, she added. "This is a good option for humans to have a

Tesla sales rise after year of Musk boycotts but still miss expectations

Sales of Tesla vehicles rose in the past three months after a brutal year of boycotts over Elon Musk's politics but still fell short of expectations. The company reported Thursday that sales rose 6 per cent to 358,023 in the three months through March, the first time in three years it posted a first-quarter increase from the year-earlier period. The increase follows a year of plunging sales due to an aging lineup and boycotts over Musk's right-wing political stands. Still, the results disappointed investors, who sold heavily on Thursday. One reason was that sales were 6 per cent lower than the 381,000 that financial analysts had expected, according to a survey by researcher FactSet. And they were sharply off from the sales for the three months ended in December. Tesla has had to contend with lower demand due to the September expiration of a USD 7,500 tax credit for EV buyers, a blow to sales across the industry. The company is hoping cheaper versions of Tesla models X and 3 introd
