Tesla Recalls and Buys Back 15 Imported Model 3 and Y Cars Missing Knee Airbags
PROGRAMADO87% DE CONFIANZAThe Part 573 report's recall schedule gives "Planned Remedy Owner Notification Date: Sep 05, 2026" and NHTSA's[1][3][5][6] acknowledgement says "Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed September 5, 2026"; the buyback offers start with those letters, and no owner letter has been posted to NHTSA yet, so it stays scheduled (the report itself was filed July 7, 2026).
Tesla is buying back 15 Canadian-market Model 3 and Model Y cars that were imported into the US without the knee airbag and other protections US safety standards require, after wrongly certifying them as compliant; owner letters were due 5 September 2026.
