Tesla issues recall of 11,704 EVs over braking software glitch

Tesla has issued its second recall in as many weeks, although this may be more strategic than it is urgent. As the AP noted, The new recall covers 11,704 Tesla EVs from 2017 or newer (including the Model 3, Model Y, Model S and Model X) that were prone to "false-positive braking" after a buggy Full Self-Driving beta update from October 23rd led to a communications breakdown between two chips. The company fixed the issue on October 25th. The day before, it also cancelled the flawed update and disabled emergency braking on cars still using that beta release. There were no reports of crashes or injuries, Tesla said. The automaker decided to issue a recall on October 26th.
