Unlatching front trunks and flickering rearview cameras underlie the latest Tesla recall, affecting the Model S and Model 3.
, involves a misalignment in the front trunk latch on the cars, which could cause the hood to open unexpectedly and block the driver’s view. Drivers should get an alert on their dashboard when their front trunk unlatches.
The second issue, which affects around 356,309 Model 3 sedans from 2017 to 2020, involves the rearview camera cable harness attached to the car’s back trunk, which can incur stress damage from the trunk lid opening and closing. Drivers whose in-car camera display flickers or cuts out from time to time may want to get their vehicles inspected for this problem.According to NHTSA, Tesla will send out notification letters for both issues to owners next February.
