Tesla is recalling 2025 Model Y vehicles with potential rearview camera failure that could increase crash risk. Owners must update software or replace faulty circuit boards to comply with safety standards.

Tesla is recalling certain 2025 Model Y vehicles because a rearview camera may stop working, reducing the driver's rear view and increasing crash risk. This affects vehicles that could fail to meet federal safety standards for rear visibility.
A faulty circuit board can cause the rearview camera to stop working, which reduces the driver's ability to see behind the vehicle. This increases the risk of collisions when reversing or changing lanes.
Owners of 2025 Tesla Model Y vehicles are affected. Drivers with rearview camera issues face higher crash risk due to reduced rear visibility.
