Tesla recalls more than 1 million U.S. vehicles to update window reversing software so it doesn't pinch fingers.

Tesla is recalling nearly 1.1 million of its vehicles due to an automatic window safety issue that can cause a person's fingers to be pinched. The electric vehicle manufacturer informed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration via a letter Wednesday that it would perform an over-the-air software update of the automatic window reversal system.

NHTSA said a closing window without the proper automatic reversing system may exert excessive force by pinching a driver or passenger before retracting, increasing the risk of injury. The recall covers some 2017-2022 Model 3, 2020-2021 Model Y, and 2021-2022 Model S and Model X vehicles. The issue will be handled like a software bug, with an update alert coming to their apps and screens, not a visit to a shop or dealer.
