Tesla is recalling 870 Model X electric vehicles in China due to potential safety concerns related to roof trim panels. The recall affects vehicles produced between March 2016 and July 2016 and involves a potential for the panels to detach, posing a safety risk. This recall follows a series of previous recalls by Tesla, highlighting ongoing concerns about vehicle quality and safety.
Tesla is recalling 9,136 Model X SUVs in the U.S. due to concerns that cosmetic trim pieces on the vehicle roof may detach, posing a safety hazard to other drivers. The recall affects 2016 Model X vehicles and involves reattaching or replacing the trims free of charge.
Tesla has implemented significant price reductions for its vehicles in the United States, China, and Germany. The company’s Model Y, Model X, and Model S vehicles have seen a $2,000 decrease in the US, while the price of Full Self-Driving software has been lowered from $12,000 to $8,000. Tesla has also reduced prices in China and Germany, with the Model 3 seeing a price cut of 14,000 yuan ($1,930) in China. This recent round of price cuts comes amid a decline in Tesla’s stock value, which has fallen to its lowest point in 15 months. Tesla’s stock may continue to face selling pressure due to an upcoming earnings report that is expected to show a decline in demand and a potential negative free cash flow quarter.
