Tesla Inc. is recalling about 80,000 cars in China due to
software and seat-belt issues, days after U.S. regulators asked the
company to recall hundreds of thousands of vehicles.
The electric-car maker, the second largest in China by sales,
has filed its recall plan to the State Administration for Market
Regulation, the Chinese regulator said Friday.
The recall involves 67,698 imported Model S and Model X cars,
which have "software problems" that may lead to battery
malfunction. Tesla is also recalling 2,736 imported Model 3 cars
and 10,127 of such vehicles made in China. The company cited
seat-belt issues for these vehicles, according to China's top
market watchdog.
Tesla's recall in China came after the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration in the U.S. last week recalled more than
300,000 Tesla vehicles due to potential taillight failures.
