Tesla is facing another investigation into its vehicles — this time about issues where owners lose control of steering.
Ever have issues steering your Model 3 or Model Y? A government agency wants to know about it.
As reported by CNBC, Tesla is now under investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in the United States over reports of steering issues with the Model 3 and Model Y. According to the notice posted to the NHTSA website, the issue caused owners to lose control of steering while driving.
While some reported the loss of power steering, some said the steering would lock in place and that the car would only go forwards and backward — but never turn.
The federal vehicle safety regulator said in a notice posted to the agency’s website that it has received a dozen complaints from drivers who experienced steering problems in their Teslas, including one who said it had caused a crash.
