Tesla recalls 475 thousand electric vehicles

Tesla is recalling 475,000 electric vehicles in the U.S., roughly equivalent to the company's entire production in 2020, writes Bloomberg.

All 356,000 Model 3s produced from 2017 to 2020 are being recalled. In them, when opening and closing the trunk, the wiring harness of the rear view camera can be damaged and the picture can be lost.

The 119,000 Model Ss produced since 2014 will have their front trunk latch replaced, a defect in which the lid could suddenly open. The replacements will be free of charge, Tesla said.

The company's shares fell almost 1.5% in premarket trading, but have risen 54% since the beginning of the year, Bloomberg notes.
