Tesla investigated over incidents in which Model 7 steering wheels detached
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, or NHTSA, said Wednesday it has launched an investigation of the Tesla Inc.
Model Y SUV after receiving two complaints that the steering wheel detached. The regulator said both times, the cars were delivered to the owners missing the retaining bolt that attaches the steering wheel to the steering column. “Sudden separation occurred when the force exerted on the steering wheel overcame the resistance of the friction fit while the vehicles were in motion,” it added. The incidents happened while both cars were at low vehicle mileage.
