The impacted vehicles feature hardware version 3, which Tesla stopped producing in January 2024.
According to the NHTSA, the ​rearview camera display in impacted ​vehicles may be delayed when the car is put into reverse, which hurts ​driver visibility.
"Loss of the rearview camera image may affect the driver’s rearview and increase the risk of a collision," the NHTSA said in its recall notice. "The driver may continue to reverse the vehicle by performing a shoulder check and using their mirrors."

Tesla said there have been no reports of collisions, fatalities or injuries due to the rearview camera issue, but there have been 27 warranty claims and two field reports that may be connected to the problem.
