Hi there,

In this chaotic news cycle it may be tempting to tune out, but we hope you won’t—only an informed and engaged public can defend democracy. In these times of deep political polarization we need news that goes beyond play-by-play headlines, news that goes to the heart of each story by asking people to tell their own stories of abuses of power and injustice in their own words. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Tesla Recalls 2 Million Vehicles over Flaws in Autopilot Software

HeadlineDec 14, 2023

Tesla has recalled software from nearly all of its 2 million vehicles on U.S. roads after regulators found the electric car manufacturer failed to ensure that drivers remain attentive while using Autopilot, a system that can drive autonomously. This follows a series of accidents involving self-driving Teslas — some of them fatal. Meanwhile, in Sweden, garbage has begun piling up at Tesla’s workshops after a major Transport Workers’ Union said it would stop collecting waste in support of Swedish mechanics who’ve been on strike since October to protest the anti-union policies of Tesla and its billionaire CEO, Elon Musk.
