Transport Canada lists: Model 3 2021–2023 · Model S 2021–2023 · Model X 2022–2023 · Model Y 2020–2023

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a software problem could delay the rearview camera image from displaying when the transmission is shifted into reverse shortly after the vehicle is started. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display within 2 seconds of shifting the transmission into reverse gear.

Why it matters

A rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Tesla will notify owners by email. Tesla has released an over-the-air software update to fix this problem. There is no further action required if your vehicle has software release 2026.8.6.1 or a later release.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the driver-front airbag may have been damaged during assembly. As a result, the airbag may not inflate properly in a crash.

Why it matters

An airbag that doesn't inflate properly could create an increased risk of injury in a crash.

Tesla will notify owners by email and advise you to contact Tesla Service to arrange for an inspection and, if necessary, the replacement of the driver-front airbag.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the hood latch assembly could fail and cause the unlatched hood warning not to display on the instrument panel. As a result, you may not be aware that the hood isn't latched properly. If this happens, the hood could open suddenly while driving.

Why it matters

A hood that opens suddenly while driving can block the driver's view and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Tesla will notify affected owners by email. Tesla has released an over-the-air software update to fix this issue. There is no further action required if your vehicle has software release 2024.20.3 or a later release.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the seat belt reminder chime and visual warning may not work when you start the vehicle and your seat belt is not buckled. Canadian regulations require both a seat belt reminder sound and visual telltale when a driver is not wearing their seat belt.

Why it matters

A seat belt warning that doesn't work correctly may not remind you to buckle your seat belt. Not wearing your seat belt can increase the risk of injury in a crash.

What the dealer will do

Tesla will notify owners by email and supply an over-the-air software update to activate the seat belt reminder chime and visual warning.

Transport Canada lists: Model 3 2018–2024 · Model S 2012–2024 · Model X 2016–2024 · Model Y 2020–2024

What is wrong

A previous over-the-air (OTA) software update could cause the vehicle not to display the correct visual warning indicators when there are problems with the brake system or when the parking brake is applied. As a result, the BRAKE, PARK, and antilock brake system (ABS) visual indicators would display as text instead of symbols.

Why it matters

While there is a low risk to safety, Canadian regulations require visual warnings to use common symbols, instead of words, to avoid driver confusion.

What the dealer will do

Tesla will notify affected owners by email. Tesla has released an over-the-air software update to fix this problem. There is no further action required if your vehicle has software release 2024.3.25, 2024.14.5, or a release later than 2024.14.5.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the doors not to stay latched in a crash. As a result, the vehicles may not meet certain side impact protection requirements of Canadian regulations.

Why it matters

A door that opens in a crash could increase the risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Tesla has released an over-the-air software update to fix this problem. There is no further action required if your vehicle has software release 2023.44.30 or a later release. Tesla will notify affected owners by email.

What is wrong

On vehicles equipped with the Autosteer advanced driver-assistance feature, when using the feature, the vehicle may not provide strong enough warnings or monitor the driver closely enough to prevent misuse of the feature.

Why it matters

A driver that doesn't pay close attention while using the Autosteer feature or who doesn't react quickly when Autosteer is canceled could have an increased risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Tesla will notify owners by email and supply an over-the-air software update to improve driver monitoring and alerts while using the Autosteer feature.

What is wrong

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the low brake fluid warning lamp may not turn on if the brake fluid level gets too low. A low brake fluid level can cause reduced braking.

Why it matters

A driver that isn't aware of a low brake fluid level could experience reduced braking and an increased risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the front seat belts may not have been reconnected to their anchors correctly during a repair. As a result, the seat belt could detach in a crash.

Why it matters

A seat belt that detaches in a crash could increase the risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Tesla will notify owners by email and advise you to contact Tesla Service to arrange for an inspection of the front seat belts.

What is wrong

In certain traffic situations, when the FSD Beta advanced driver assistance feature is engaged, the vehicle may perform maneuvers that break certain traffic laws, if the driver doesn't intervene and take control. Note: This recall only affects vehicles equipped with the FSD Beta feature.

Why it matters

Certain maneuvers performed by the FSD Beta advanced driver assistance feature may break traffic laws. This could increase the risk of a crash if the driver doesn't intervene.

What the dealer will do

Tesla will notify owners by email and supply an over-the-air software update to improve how the FSD Beta feature maneuvers the vehicle in certain traffic situations. Tesla reminds that FSD Beta is only an advanced driver assistance feature, and the driver must pay attention and be ready to take control at all times when the feature is engaged.

Transport Canada lists: Model 3 2018–2022 · Model S 2021–2022 · Model X 2022 · Model Y 2020–2022

What is wrong

The window automatic reversal system may not react correctly after detecting an obstruction. This could cause the window to close with too much force before it stops and retracts. Also, the window may not retract enough after detecting an obstruction. As a result, the power windows do not pass certain tests under Canadian safety regulations.

Why it matters

A window that closes with excessive force could pinch a person and create a risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Tesla will email a notice to owners and provide an over-the-air firmware update to fix this condition.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, during fast-charging or preparation for fast-charging, the infotainment central processing unit (CPU) may overheat. This could cause the CPU to be slow or to restart. As a result, the center screen display may lag or appear blank. If this happens, the rearview camera display, windshield wiper and defroster settings, drive modes (i.e., Drive, Neutral, or Reverse), and telltales may not be available.

Why it matters

A driver who does not have access to vehicle systems and controls could have an increased risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Tesla will email a notice to owners and provide an over-the-air firmware update to fix this problem.
