Tesla recalling US vehicles over driver assistance systems
Tesla is recalling nearly every vehicle it has sold in the US to adapt driver monitoring systems and the functionality of its driver assistance systems known as “Autopilot”. The European Transport Safety Council (ETSC) said the recall “highlights a massive human factors problem of Level 2 driver assistance systems, where the driver remains fully in charge of the vehicle but can easily be lulled into a false sense that the vehicle is capable of driving itself.”
