Brake lights, backup lights and turn signals are not affected.
In order to manage the problem on the affected cars, Model 3 and Model Y of the years 2020-2023, Tesla plans a free remote software update.
Tesla, headed by Elon Musk, explains in the document that it was alerted to the problem by customers mainly outside the United States in late October and confirmed its origin on November 7.
The automaker is unaware of any incidents or injuries related to the problem.
