07:16 AM EDT, 05/31/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Tesla (TSLA) is recalling 125,227 of its cars in the US because of a defect in its seat belt warning system that can raise the chance of injury during an accident, multiple news outlets reported Friday, citing the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The recall affects certain 2012-2024 Model S, 2015-2024 Model X, 2017-2023 Model 3 and 2020-2023 Model Y vehicles, according to the reports.

The regulator said that the vehicles were not in line with the federal safety requirements. Tesla plans to release a software update to solve the problem, with deployment expected to start in June.
