April 12, 2022 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 22V235000
Pedestrian Warning Sound May Be Obscured/FMVSS 141
Pedestrians may be unaware of an approaching vehicle if the PWS sounds are obscured, increasing the risk of a crash.
NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V235
Manufacturer Tesla
, Inc.
Components ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE
Potential Number of Units Affected 594,717
Summary
Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling certain 2020-2022 Model Y, Model X, Model S, and 2017-2022 Model 3 vehicles. The Boombox function allows sounds to be played through an external speaker while the vehicle is in motion, which may obscure the Pedestrian Warning System (PWS) sounds. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 141, “Minimum Sound Requirements for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles.”
Remedy
Tesla will perform an over-the-air (OTA) software update that will disable the Boombox functionality when the vehicle is in Drive, Neutral and Reverse modes, including Summon and Smart Summon, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 6, 2022. Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752. Tesla’s number for this recall is SB-22-00-003. Note: This recall supersedes recall 22V-063. Vehicles configured with Summon or Smart Summon and already remedied under 22V-063 will need to have the new remedy software installed.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

Update Vehicle Firmware to Correct Boombox Functionality
Condition
Vehicles equipped with the Pedestrian Warning System (PWS), including vehicles that are configured with Summon or Smart Summon, and operating firmware version releases before 2022.12 (except 2022.3.102.1, 2022.3.103.0.1, 2022.3.103.5) can use the Boombox feature when in motion or while Summon or Smart Summon is in use.
Correction
Update the firmware version to 2022.12 or later to enable Boombox while in Park only.
Procedure
- On the vehicle touchscreen, touch Controls (vehicle icon) > Software, and then scroll down to display the vehicle firmware version.
- If the vehicle is operating with firmware version 2022.3.102.1, 2022.3.103.0.1, 2022.3.103.5, no further action is necessary. Use correction code S012200003.
- If the vehicle is operating with firmware version 2022.12 or later, no further action is necessary. Use correction code S012200003.
- If the vehicle is operating with a firmware version before 2022.12 (except 2022.3.102.1, 2022.3.103.0.1, 2022.3.103.5), then update to the latest available firmware release. Use correction code S022200003.
Chronology of Noncompliance Determination
- On or about December 24, 2020, Tesla began deploying firmware release 2020.48.25 over-the-air (“OTA”) to affected vehicles. The release introduced Boombox.
- On January 15, 2021, NHTSA issued an information request (OA-141-210104) to investigate Boombox’s compliance with FMVSS 141.
- On February 5, 2021, Tesla responded to the information request, explaining feature performance and demonstrating its compliance with FMVSS 141.
- Over the next several months, Tesla responded to additional information requests from NHTSA and participated in a number of virtual meetings with the Agency.
- On September 9, 2021, NHTSA upgraded the investigation to a Preliminary Evaluation (PE-141210104) and requested additional information from Tesla relating to Boombox’s compliance with FMVSS 141.
- On October 18, 2021, Tesla responded to NHTSA’s request, further demonstrating and defending the tests performed and rationale used to determine Boombox’s compliance with FMVSS 141.
- On January 27 and 28, 2022, NHTSA and Tesla further discussed Boombox’s compliance with FMVSS 141.
- On January 29, 2022, Tesla decided to voluntarily recall and disable Boombox functionality in Drive, Neutral and Reverse modes with an OTA firmware update. Tesla submitted Recall No. 22V-063 on February 4, 2022. The OTA deployment of firmware update began in February 2022.
- On March 23, 2022, as a follow-up to Recall No. 22V-063, NHTSA inquired about the availability of Boombox if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. Summon and Smart Summon are optional driver assistance features that are not equipped on all vehicles. Summon allows the user to stand outside the vehicle and, via the Tesla mobile app or key fob, cause the vehicle to move in and out of parking spaces when the user is located within a set and limited distance. Smart Summon is an enhanced version of the Summon feature where, using the Tesla mobile app, the user can direct the vehicle to move to a specific location when the user is located within a set and limited distance. The user must maintain a clear line of sight to the vehicle and its surroundings at all times while Summon or Smart Summon is being used.
- On March 31, 2022, Tesla advised NHTSA that it had confirmed that Boombox remained available when Summon or Smart Summon is in use and that it had decided to voluntarily expand the recall to also disable Boombox functionality if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. The recall will disable Boombox functionality when Summon or Smart Summon is in use, with an OTA firmware update.
- On April 7, 2022, Tesla amended Recall No. 22V-063 to incorporate this expansion of the recall population and scope.
- On April 12, 2022, based on a further discussion with NHTSA and in the interest of ensuring customer clarity, Tesla opted to supersede Recall No. 22V-063 with a new recall that includes all affected vehicles.

13101 Tesla Road Austin, TX 78725 IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL
Owner, This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Tesla, Inc. has decided that certain Model Year (“MY”) 2020-2022 Model S, Model X and Model Y and MY 2017-2022 Model 3 vehicles fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (“FMVSS”) No. 141 “Minimum Sound Requirements for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles.” Our records show that you are the owner of a vehicle affected by this action. REASON FOR THIS RECALL Boombox functionality allows customers to play preset or custom sounds through the vehicle’s pedestrian warning system (“PWS”) when the vehicle is parked or in motion, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. Sounds emitted using Boombox may obscure the pedestrian alert sound when the vehicle is in motion, which could increase the risk of a crash. WHAT TESLA WILL DO Tesla remedied the noncompliance with a free over-the-air (“OTA”) software update that disables the Boombox functionality when the vehicle is in Drive, Neutral and Reverse, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. WHAT YOU SHOULD DO Please check that your vehicle is running software version 2022.3.102.1, 2022.3.103.0.1, 2022.3.103.5, 2022.12 or a release later than 2022.12, all of which contain the remedy. You can check the software version running on your vehicle by tapping ‘Controls’ then ‘Software’ on your touchscreen. If your vehicle is running any one of the software versions listed above, then there is no further action that you need to take, and you may disregard this notice. If your vehicle is not running one of these software versions, then please install the latest pending software update through your Tesla app, or by tapping the yellow clock icon on your vehicle’s touchscreen and following the prompts.

On affected vehicles, the Boombox functionality allows a customer to play preset or custom sounds through the PWS external speaker when the vehicle is parked or in motion, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. While Boombox and the pedestrian alert sound are mutually exclusive sounds, sounds emitted using Boombox could be construed to obscure or prevent the PWS from complying with FMVSS 141 when the vehicle is in Drive, Neutral or Reverse, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. This recall supersedes Recall No. 22V-063. Part 573 Safety Recall Report 22V-235 Page 3 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 FMVSS 1 : NR FMVSS 2 : NR Description of the Safety Risk : While Boombox can enhance the conspicuity of the vehicle to pedestrians, a vehicle that uses Boombox when in Drive, Neutral or Reverse, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use, may cause the PWS to be noncompliant with FMVSS 141, which could increase the risk of a collision.

In Recall No. 22V-063, which is superseded by this recall, Tesla issued an OTA firmware update to disable the use of Boombox when the vehicle is in Drive, Neutral or Reverse. Vehicles that received the OTA firmware update under 22V-063 and are currently configured without Summon or Smart Summon no longer contain the noncompliance condition. However, owners of these vehicles may elect to purchase or subscribe to use Summon or Smart Summon in the future. Therefore, as a precautionary measure, Tesla will also deploy to these vehicles the same firmware update that will disable Boombox functionality while using Summon or Smart Summon if those functionalities are later enabled. Tesla does not plan to include a statement in the Part 577 owner notification about pre-notice reimbursement because there is no paid repair relating to the underlying condition and owners will receive the remedy free of charge with an OTA firmware update. How Remedy Component Differs from Recalled Component : Firmware releases that do not include the remedy allow Boombox functionality when the vehicle is in Drive, Neutral or Reverse, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. Firmware releases that contain the remedy disable Boombox functionality when the vehicle is in Drive, Neutral or Reverse, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. Identify How/When Recall Condition was Corrected in Production : Firmware releases that disable Boombox when the vehicle is in Drive, Neutral or Reverse, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use, were introduced in production on March 31, 2022. Recall Schedule : Description of Recall Schedule : All Tesla stores and service centers will be notified about this recall on or shortly after April 13, 2022.

Production Dates : NOV 26, 2019 – MAR 31, 2022 VIN Range 1 : Begin : NR End : NR Not sequential Description of Noncompliance : Description of the Noncompliance : FMVSS 141 establishes performance requirements for pedestrian alert sounds for electric and hybrid vehicles. The standard also prohibits manufacturers from altering or modifying the sound emitting capability of the pedestrian warning system (“PWS”), through which the pedestrian alert sounds emit. On affected vehicles, the Boombox functionality allows a customer to play preset or custom sounds through the PWS external speaker when the vehicle is parked or in motion, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. While Boombox and the pedestrian alert sound are mutually exclusive sounds, sounds emitted using Boombox could be construed to obscure or prevent the PWS from complying with FMVSS 141 when the vehicle is in Drive, Neutral or Reverse, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. This recall supersedes Recall No. 22V-063.

Part 573 Safety Recall Report 22V-235 Page 4 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Description of Remedy : Description of Remedy Program : Tesla will deploy an OTA firmware update that will disable the Boombox functionality when the vehicle is in Drive, Neutral or Reverse, including if Summon or Smart Summon is in use. In Recall No. 22V-063, which is superseded by this recall, Tesla issued an OTA firmware update to disable the use of Boombox when the vehicle is in Drive, Neutral or Reverse. Vehicles that received the OTA firmware update under 22V-063 and are currently configured without Summon or Smart Summon no longer contain the noncompliance condition. However, owners of these vehicles may elect to purchase or subscribe to use Summon or Smart Summon in the future. Therefore, as a precautionary measure, Tesla will also deploy to these vehicles the same firmware update that will disable Boombox functionality while using Summon or Smart Summon if those functionalities are later enabled. Tesla does not plan to include a statement in the Part 577 owner notification about pre-notice reimbursement because there is no paid repair relating to the underlying condition and owners will receive the remedy free of charge with an OTA firmware update.
