Η Tesla Motors ανακοίνωσε σήμερα το πρωί ότι ανακαλεί εθελοντικά όλα τα Model S που έχει κατασκευάσει, περίπου 90.000, εξαιτίας ενός μοναδικού περιστατικού που εντοπίστηκε από μια ιδιοκτήτρια στην Ευρώπη. Καθώς αυτή καθόταν στο κάθισμα του οδηγού και γύρισε να μιλήσει στους πίσω επιβαίνοντες, η ζώνη της ξεκούμπωσε. Κανείς δεν τραυματίστηκε από το αυτό, αλλά η αμερικάνικη εταιρία ζητάει από τους πελάτες της να πάνε τα αυτοκίνητα τους σε κάποια αντιπροσωπεία για να ελεγχτούν οι βίδες της ζώνης.
Εξαιτίας του παραπάνω περιστατικού η μετοχή της Tesla σημείωσε σημαντική πτώση, καθώς έκλεισε με -4,27%, ενώ κατά την διάρκεια της ημέρας είχε φτάσει και πάνω από 5%.

We are sending you this email to inform you of a proactive action Tesla is taking to ensure your safety. Tesla recently found a Model S in Europe with a front seat belt that was not properly connected to the outboard lap pretensioner. This vehicle was not involved in a crash and there were no injuries. However, in the event of a crash, a seatbelt in this condition would not provide full protection. First and foremost, we care about your safety.
This is the only customer vehicle we know of with this condition. Even though we have since inspected the seat belts in over 3,000 vehicles spanning the entire range of Model S production and found no issues, we have decided to conduct a voluntary recall as a proactive and precautionary measure to inspect all front Model S seat belts and make absolutely sure that they are properly connected. (We have no concerns regarding seat belts in the rear of Model S.)
Our records indicate you own a Model S affected by this voluntary recall. We will be sending you an official recall notice by mail, but you don’t need to wait for this notice to schedule your free inspection.
You have two options for your inspection:
1) Use our online scheduling tool to book an appointment

Alternatively, you can call 844-248-3752. By calling this number, you will automatically be routed to a local service center based upon the area code you are calling from. If you have a blocked number, or would like to reach a specific location, please dial the service center directly.
If you are concerned about the status of your seatbelt prior to your scheduled inspection, you may be able to detect this condition by pulling very firmly on the lap portion of your seat belt with a force of at least 80 pounds. This procedure may detect an improperly attached seat belt but performing this procedure does not replace the need for an inspection by a Tesla technician.
Thank you for your ongoing support. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
