The streak of bad luck continues for Tesla, this time forcing the manufacturer to recall nearly 54,000 vehicles. The affected cars all support Tesla’s Full Self-Driving feature, and it’s this exact software that poses a safety risk and, as a result, makes the vehicles unsuitable. According to Reuters, the recalled cars did not come to a complete stop at some intersections while in self-driving mode. Ivan Marc/Shutterstock The issues can be traced back to a feature referred to as “rolling stop.” The functionality was added to Tesla’s self-driving cars in October 2021, and just a few months later on February 1, 2022, the company is forced to disable this feature. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has announced that Tesla will turn off the “rolling stop” in an upcoming firmware update which will be automatically distributed to the owners of affected cars.
