  • Jan 8, 2026UNKNOWN OR OTHERSB-26-15-001

    On some Model Y vehicles, the rear view mirror upper camera cover is not sufficiently transparent, which may prevent infrared light from traveling through the cover, resulting in increased vehicle occupancy warnings in low-light conditions. This has no effect on vehicle operation or Autopilot features. Inspect the vehicle for symptoms related to the condition. If symptoms are present, replace the rear view mirror upper camera cover.

  • Jun 24, 2025SUSPENSIONSB-25-31-004

    A firmware diagnosis feature is being introduced on Model 3 and Model Y vehicles that monitors wheel alignment over time. This feature detects changes in wheel alignment that may be related to incorrect tire pressures, degraded ball joints, bushings or damaged suspension links. If the feature determines that an inspection at a Tesla Service Center is required, a customer-facing alert will appear on the touchscreen.

  • Mar 20, 2025ELECTRICAL SYSTEMSB-25-16-001

    Certain Model 3 and Model Y vehicles were manufactured with High Voltage (HV) batteries containing cell modules that do not meet Tesla’s internal quality standards, potentially resulting in a reduction of range.

  • Feb 25, 2025ELECTRICAL SYSTEMSB-25-17-005

    On some Model Y vehicles, the center high mounted stop light may cause interference with the power supply line for the High Voltage Controller (HVC), which can falsely trigger High Voltage Interlock Loop (HVIL) alerts HVP_w026_HvilFault or BMS_a036_SW_HvpHvilFault.

  • Oct 25, 2024STRUCTURE:BODYSB-24-11-006

    On certain Model Y vehicles, the LH and/or RH rear primary body seals might cause wind noise in the cabin.
