The number of vehicles recalled reached 123,000, exceeding the record set in 2015, when Tesla recalled 90,000 Model Ss due to seat belt defects. In addition, Tesla recalled Model S and Model X for parking brake defects last year.
Tesla said that the model involved in the recall is only Model S, and has nothing to do with Model X and Model 3. Tesla said that the reason for recalling the Model S is that in very cold climates, especially on the salt roads where calcium or magnesium pavements are often used, the power steering bolts are excessively corroded.
Tesla said in an email to customers:
However, Tesla also said that as of now, the company has not received reports of casualties or crashes related to this issue.

Some people say: You never know when Tesla's stock will fall.
Tesla March event count1. On March 23, a Tesla Model X crashed into the barrier of the ramp at Highway 101 on Highway 101 in Mountain View, California. The 38-year-old owner, Huang Wei, died after being sent to the hospital. The impact caused the vehicle to be severely damaged, the battery pack was damaged and caused a fire, and the front half of the vehicle was completely destroyed.
The National Transportation Safety Board announced that it will intervene in the accident investigation to find out if the Autopilot assisted driving system was activated in the event of a vehicle accident. Tesla previously said that because the vehicle was seriously burned, it is currently impossible to extract vehicle data. Tesla also said that the 101 high-speed section of the road is unusual, and there are 200 Tesla cars that use assisted driving every day.
In this fatal accident, in addition to the questioned Tesla Autopilot assisted driving system, the safety of the vehicle under impact also needs to be considered: although it is not clear how many speeds this Tesla hits the guardrail, the frontal impact is theoretically It is indeed a tragedy that modern cars are best at coping with crash scenes and causing passengers to die.
For Tesla, this is not the whole bad news: the company's profit focus Model 3 still does not reach the ideal monthly production of tens of thousands of units. Under the influence of the traffic accident, Tesla suffered consecutively in the capital market. frustration.
2. On March 27th, credit rating company Moody “s Investors Service†further downgraded the credit rating of Tesla shares from B2 junk status to B3, and did not rule out the possibility of continuing to lower the rating. At the same time, Tesla The issued bonds were downgraded from B3 to a lower Caa1. Moody's said the downgrade was due to a severe shortage of Model 3's capacity and a shortage of funds due to too much money and bond maturity. They think Tesla is currently Faced with greater risks.
3. On March 30th, Tesla announced that it had recalled 120,000 Tesla Model S cars due to steering system spare parts defects. Less than half of Tesla's current total output of 280,000 units is about the past two years. Yield. Although the recall is normal in the automotive industry, the recall is not a major flaw. But in the current state of affairs, the negative effects of this news will be amplified.
Analyze through the following problems encountered by Tesla:
1. On March 30th, Tesla voluntarily recalled approximately 123,000 Model S cars worldwide, which may cause the power steering wheel to fail due to corrosion of specific bolts in cold weather. Tesla said on the 29th that the scope of the recall is the Model S sedan produced before April 2016. It is said to be the largest recall in the history of Tesla.
2. It is reported that the National Transportation Safety Board (NaTIonal TransportaTIon Safety Board) is investigating a fatal accident involving a Tesla electric car that occurred last week.
3. Moody's released a report on Tuesday, downgrading Tesla's credit rating from B2 to B3. Because of the backward progress of the Model 3 mass production, it is difficult to deliver. The original plan to increase to 2,500 vehicles per week in the first quarter may be lost, and there is also a lack of cash flow. This is likely to lead to the inability to accomplish this goal.
4. Investors' confidence in Tesla is also generally insufficient. Not long ago, Jim Chanos, who had made a name for himself because of the short-selling Enron company, said that the next short-selling object would be Tesla.
5. John Thompson, a well-known American hedge fund manager, recently issued a letter to the company that shorted Tesla. The letter stated that if there is no blood transfusion from Wall Street banks and private investors, Tesla may not be able to survive because there is no abundant cash flow. 12 months.
6. Since 2017, Tesla’s top management has also seen a wave of departure. Its latest report to the US Securities and Exchange Commission shows that three of the company's top ten shareholders have sold shares of the company in the near future.
7. The SEC has requested Tesla to provide more information and disclosures 85 times in the past five years. If a company is undergoing a formal investigation by the Securities and Futures Commission and the investigation is open, it is almost impossible to raise funds from the open market, at least it is difficult.
Thompson said: "Tesla's market value is twice that of Ford, but Ford produces 6 million cars a year, with a profit of $76 million. Tesla has an annual output of 100,000 cars and lost $2 billion. Worse. Yes, Tesla does not have ample cash flow."
Ford also holds $12 billion in cash for unexpected needs, and Tesla may run out of money in the next three months. According to an analyst speculation: according to the current rate of burning money, Tesla's book capital is only enough to burn for another three months.
There are rumors that Musk is pinning his hopes on China, but his plan to build a factory in China with the Shanghai government is still under discussion. However, the Chinese side has not made a clear statement.
There is no doubt that Tesla is on the verge of bankruptcy.
Incremental encoders provide speed, direction and relative position feedback by generating a stream of binary pulses proportional to the rotation of a motor or driven shaft. Lander offers both optical and magnetic incremental encoders in 4 mounting options: shafted with coupling, hollow-shaft, hub-shaft or bearingless. Single channel incremental encoders can measure speed which dual channel or quadrature encoders (AB) can interpret direction based on the phase relationship between the 2 channels. Indexed quadrature encoders (ABZ) are also available for homing location are startup.
