Chronology :
– On December 26, 2023, Tesla began receiving reports of camera feeds not displaying on certain affected vehicles, including the rearview camera feed.
– Beginning on December 27, 2023, to January 5, 2024, Tesla assessed the reports and condition. As part of this activity, Tesla investigated telemetry from certain affected vehicles, the totality of which indicated a potential correlation between i2c transaction instability and an inability of the rearview camera to initialize and display imagery. The investigation identified a potential root cause as a prior revision to the i2c driver to correct noncritical read corruptions, which began deploying in late December 2023 as part of software release 2023.44.30.
– On December 28, 2023, as part of the ongoing investigation, Tesla began deploying an over-the-air software update to a small population of affected vehicles to revert the revision described above. This update, as further described in the remedy below, began deploying over-the-air to all affected vehicles on January 3, 2024.
– On January 8, 2024, Tesla completed its review of manufacturing records, confirming the risk assessment and affected population. On the same day, a containment hold was placed on new, undelivered vehicles to remedy them prior to delivery to customers.
– On January 12, 2024, a voluntary recall determination was made.
– As of January 22, 2024, Tesla has identified 81 warranty claims that may be related to the condition described above. Tesla is not aware of any crashes, injuries or deaths that may be related to this condition.
