This problem appeared to affect several Model X vehicles produced during the 2021 and 2022 model years. After further examining the component structures and test parameters that correlated directly with airbag deployment positioning, Tesla conducted another test to see if the Evs also failed to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 255.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"postblock-img-left alignnone wp-image-31385 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/sj-lawfirm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_4044-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sj-lawfirm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_4044-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sj-lawfirm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_4044-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sj-lawfirm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_4044.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tesla_Model_X_Recall\"><\/span>Tesla Model X Recall<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.autoevolution.com\/news\/tesla-is-recalling-certain-model-x-vehicles-over-airbag-issue-186413.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Auto Evolution<\/a>, after the initial airbag findings were reported late last year, the Conformity of Production team confirmed Tesla\u2019s findings in early March 2022. These tests concluded that some of the side front-row curtain airbags were not operating according to compliance regulations. After reviewing the test results from the Conformity of Production, Tesla failed to come up with a potential solution \u2013 forcing the company to recall 7,289 Model X vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>Drivers of Model X vehicles from the years 2021 and 2022 can have the side front-row curtain airbags replaced free of charge. The new replacement airbags were produced with extended tabs that allow for the airbag to be \u201crolled with more inboard deployment trajectory.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"postblock-img-right alignnone wp-image-31387 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/sj-lawfirm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_4046-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sj-lawfirm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_4046-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sj-lawfirm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_4046-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sj-lawfirm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_4046.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_This_Recall_Impacts_Drivers_and_Passengers\"><\/span>How This Recall Impacts Drivers and Passengers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Tesla Model X drivers and passengers who have been involved in accidents may be eligible for damages.
