A loose fastener may cause the steering wheel to detach from the steering column.
The next day, Tesla’s Field Quality and Factory Quality departments started investigating the service and production records of the Model Y, as well as production records for all Tesla Factories.
On May 22, Tesla filed a voluntary recall with the NHTSA and identified four warranty claims and one field report that are related to or may be related to this issue. Affected vehicles will be inspected by Tesla Service for proper torque of the fastener that secures the steering wheel to the steering column and if an improperly torqued bolt is found during the inspection, service technicians will install a new fastener and torque it to the correct spec.
