Almost 700,000 Tesla vehicles have been recalled due to an issue with the tire pressure monitoring system.
On Tuesday, Dec. 17, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recalled certain 2017-2025 Model 3, 2020-2025 Model Y and 2024 Cybertruck vehicles due to an issue with the tire pressure light, which may result in the driver not being properly notified of low tire pressure.
The report, which stated that the recall is estimated to affect 694,304 vehicles, noted that all Tesla stores and service centers will be notified about this recall “on or shortly after” Dec. 19, while owners with affected vehicles will be notified on Feb. 15, 2025.

The company has identified 76 warranty claims and one field report related to the issue, per the NHTSA.
PEOPLE reached out to Tesla for additional information on Sunday, Dec. 22, but did not immediately hear back.
Tesla previously recalled nearly 4,000 Cybertrucks due to a problem with the accelerator pedal in April, which included all Model Year 2024 vehicles manufactured between Nov. 13, 2023, and April 4, 2024.

The NHTSA said the pad covering the accelerator pedal may dislodge “when high force is applied” to it, and can “become trapped in the interior trim” as a result.
