US regulator intensifies probe into Tesla FSD system
The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has escalated its investigation into Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) system, moving to a more detailed engineering analysis covering about 3.2 million vehicles across multiple models.
The upgrade in the probe marks a significant step that could lead to vehicle recalls or enforcement action if regulators identify safety defects in Tesla’s driver-assistance technology, News.Az reports, citing Reuters.
The investigation focuses on how Tesla’s FSD system, marketed as a supervised self-driving feature, performs under real-world conditions. Concerns about safety and reliability have prompted closer scrutiny from regulators.
