Self-accelerating cars have so far caused 110 accidents and 52 injuries in America, so local authorities can search 500,000 Tesla.
The NTHSA (American Road Safety Organization) may take Tesla under scrutiny because the car is supposed to accelerate on its own, even when the driver doesn't want to. The error could affect approximately 500,000 Model St made between 2012 and 2019, Model X 2016-2019 and Model 3 2018-2019.
According to the organization, they have received 127 complaints so far, involving 123 Tesla. Of the reports, 110 were injured, with a total of 52 injured. The car company has not yet responded to Friday's announcement.
Many people blame the autopilot self-driving system, which has been present in Elon Musk's electric cars for many years, but is still often mistaken for countless shots thanks to Tesla's on-board cameras.
Recently, for example, in the United Kingdom, a Model 3, which was also captured by car cameras, lost its rear-view mirror. According to the driver, the system with the latest update offered self-driving on the country road and he accepted it. It didn't take long, as Tesla did not leave enough space as the car parked on the roadside and the mirror slammed into the car. If that wasn't enough, local Tesla branch staff said the driver was the fault.
