Tesla has been forced to recall more than two million vehicles as a result of problems with the warning lights.

The Elon Musk-led brand has recalled 2.2 million vehicles in the United States because of incorrect font size on warning lights.

The recall impacts almost all Tesla electric vehicle models including Model S, Model X, 2017-2023 Model 3, Model Y, and 2024 Cybertruck vehicles.

In a statement released earlier today, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said the issue could lead to a greater chance of a vehicle being involved in an incident.

The Tesla recall will affect more than 2.2 million vehicles

The NHTSA said: “Warning lights with a smaller font size can make critical safety information on the instrument panel difficult to read, increasing the risk of a crash.”

It said the issue affected the brake, park and antilock brake warning lights, potentially heightening the risk of accidents.

According to Reuters, Tesla’s new Cybertruck models started receiving a software update to fix the issue for the units in production.

This is the first recall notification impacting Tesla’s new pick-up truck which began deliveries in November last year.

The NHTSA also announced that it had upgraded its probe into Tesla vehicles over power steering loss.

The investigation has now been upgraded to an “engineering analysis” – a required step ahead of another potential recall.

It is estimated that 334,000 Model 3 and Model Y vehicles were subject to the engineering analysis.

Since July 2023, the regulator’s Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) received 2,388 complaints, forcing it to open a preliminary evaluation.
