that the EV maker widens its service bulletin to cover any vehicle equipped with components bearing the faulty part numbers, reported
Evaluation by the NHTSA began in November 2020 when 43 reports of left- or right-front suspension fore link failures were reported in the Model S of 2015 to 2017 model years, and the Model X of 2016 to 2017 model years. This came after a service bulletin from Tesla in 2017 for the replacement of front suspension fore links in some vehicles, if either the left or the right fore link was damaged, or if the vehicle was due for alignment.
Though the service bulletin was issued by Tesla in 2017, the NHTSA said that the subpopulation of vehicles affected by the bulletin which were built between January and May 2016 only constituted 25% of failures identified by the probe.
