Tesla Issues Yet Another Recall for Dangerous Malfunction

The vehicle has only been on the road for four months.

At least they're being proactive about the issue. 

Tesla  (TSLA) - Get Free Report is issuing a voluntary recall on the Semi, the electric vehicle maker's first take on the semi-trailer truck, due to a parking brake issue that could be affecting 35 units.

The electronic parking brake valve module could malfunction and move into the park position when the parking brake is activated, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notice

Tesla mailed the owner notification letters last week and will fix the issue for free.

Tesla has had a myriad of recall-related issues as of late. In February, the company issued a safety recall of 362,758 of certain Model S, Model X, Model 3 and Model Y vehicles for an over-the-air software update of its Full Self-Driving feature. The NHTSA considers this a recall, but Tesla CEO Elon Musk considers the use of the word "recall" a case of semantics believing that using the word recall for an over-the-air software update is "anachronistic and just flat wrong!" according to one of Musk's tweets.

The company also recalled thousands of its Model Y vehicles in late February due to concern about loose seat bolts, federal safety regulators said. That recall only affected 3,470 Model Year 2022-2023 vehicles, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Last week, the company recalled 2,649 Tesla Model S vehicles in China that were manufactured in the company's Fremont, Calif., plant, InsideEvs reported.
