Tesla is recalling a significant number of its electric vehicles in the US due to a critical safety issue related to headlight glare. The recall, which affects 20,349 Model 3 and Model Y vehicles from the 2017 to 2023 model years, has been initiated because the low-beam headlights on these vehicles exceed the permitted luminous intensity levels in certain areas, potentially causing dazzle to other road users and impairing their vision.

The recall is specifically related to headlight units supplied by Marelli Automotive Lighting. Tesla will notify owners and replace the headlight units free of charge to ensure compliance with safety standards and prevent any potential accidents caused by the glare issue.
