“China’s State Administration for Market Regulation said Tesla in Beijing and Shanghai would use remote upgrades to fix the problems, so in most cases car owners would not need to visit Tesla service centers”, the guardian reported. This is Tesla’s second recall within a month when the company issued notice to more than 2m of Tesla EVs.
