What the official report says

Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling certain 2023 Model 3 and Model Y vehicles operating software prior to 2023.38.4. The printed circuit board for the electronic power steering assist may experience an overstress condition, causing a loss of power steering assist when the vehicle reaches a stop and then accelerates again.

Official NHTSA campaign record

Why the reported issue matters

A loss of power steering assist can require greater steering effort, especially at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.

Official NHTSA campaign record

Prepare your observation

Record an existing steering concern without a test drive intended to provoke it. A lookup result does not diagnose steering behavior.

A reported defect describes the campaign. It does not establish what caused a symptom on your individual vehicle, and absence of a symptom does not establish that an open recall is complete.

The reported manufacturer remedy

Tesla has released an over-the-air (OTA) software update, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 25, 2025. Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752. Tesla's number for this recall is SB-25-00-004.

This describes the dated source record. Current arrangements for your VIN remain unconfirmed.

Your campaign-specific service questions

Use these questions with the official report. Keep the answers beside the remedy record; “discussed” records a conversation, not a completed repair.

  1. Does the manufacturer confirm that campaign 25V092000 applies to this VIN, including the report’s equipment and production restrictions?

    A matching model and year is only a starting point. The official lookup or manufacturer must establish the individual vehicle’s status.

  2. What remedy, required parts or software, and appointment arrangements are currently available for this VIN, and which interim instructions apply?

    The source does not explicitly establish current remedy availability. Ask the manufacturer about the applicable remedy, required parts or software, appointment arrangements and any interim instructions.

  3. Which steering component or assistance function is covered, and what transport instructions apply if a steering problem is present?

    Compare the answer with the reported component: STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM.

  4. Which module and software completion record demonstrate that the update for 25V092000 was applied?

    The source identifies an over-the-air update option. Ask how completion is confirmed for this vehicle; a downloaded update or notification is not itself a service record.

  5. What dated document records the remedy performed under 25V092000, and what should I do if the reported concern remains?

    Keep campaign completion and unresolved symptoms as separate questions. A saved worksheet or booked appointment does not establish a repair.
