Tesla said on Friday it was recalling about 239,000 vehicles over an issue that could cause the rear-view camera to not display an image, but it could be resolved by an over-the-air software update.
The development comes days after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a probe into 2.6 million Tesla vehicles in the U.S. over reports of crashes involving a feature that allows users to move their cars remotely.
In a small number of affected vehicles, a reverse current may occur during power-up, potentially causing a short circuit on the car's computer board, which could result in the rear-view camera becoming inoperative, the automaker said.
Tesla said it was investigating to determine whether any affected vehicles have experienced stress that could result in a shorting failure.
If a vehicle's component has faced such an issue or has shown signs of stress before the installation of a specific software update, Tesla will replace the car's computer, free of charge, it said.
