This is the best summary I could come up with:


As a remedy, Tesla is releasing an over-the-air (OTA) software update free of charge.

Last week, Tesla announced a recall for nearly all its U.S. vehicles — some 2 million — due to concerns about the safety of its autopilot driver-assistance feature.

A federal investigation found that its autosteer function may have led some drivers to abandon responsibility for the operation of their vehicles.

That recall came after one in February affecting more than 360,000 vehicles related to Tesla's “full self-driving” software.

In a post last week on X, formerly known as Twitter, Tesla issued a statement accusing some news outlets of misconstruing "the nature of our safety systems," adding that "incontrovertible data" shows Tesla's features are "saving lives and preventing injury."

A NHTSA spokesperson told NBC News last week that its investigation into Tesla's autopilot features “remains open as we monitor the efficacy of Tesla’s remedies and continue to work with the automaker to ensure the highest level of safety.”
