What's wrong, in plain English

Tesla is recalling certain Model S, Model X, Model 3 and Model Y vehicles that have the Full Self-Driving (Beta) software. A setting in that software called rolling stop can let the car go through an intersection where every direction has a stop sign without first coming to a complete stop. Tesla is turning the rolling stop feature off with a software update sent to the car over the air.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is included.
2. Contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752 if you have questions about the recall.
3. The software update is free.

Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 22V037000.
