Canada Clears Tesla in iZEV Rebate Investigation, $43M Payment Unfrozen - Lemmy.World

There was so much hate on Tesla for this saying it was all fraud, while Tesla was adamant it was just backlogged paper work. Hopefully those who prejudged and were harsh to the company online about this incident, can come to see that not everything you read online is true, and that maybe, just maybe, you should actually wait for the final results before condemning a company for something like this, and stating it as fact.

Ontario set to begin construction of Canada's 1st mini nuclear power plant - Lemmy.World

There’s been a lot of talk about SMR’s over the years, it’s nice to see one finally being built. Even if it comes in over budget, getting the first one done will be a great learning experience and could lead to figuring out how to do future ones cheaper. Assuming it’s on time, completion in 2029, connected to grid in 2030.

Tesla recalls 239,000 US vehicles over rear-view camera issue

Tesla recalls 239,000 US vehicles over rear-view camera issue - Lemmy.World

So, the recall is more than the rear camera, there was a software/hardware combo problem that could cause the HW4 computer to short, which took out major functionality on the car without the computer. The backup camera is part of what is lost, and is a mandatory safety feature, so the recall is technically because of that, even though it’s much more than that. What I find interesting is that this appears to be the 2nd recall where software has physically broken hardware which is a more uncommon type of recall. Lots of hardware problems that can be fixed with software, but not a lot of software problems breaking hardware. The other one was on earlier Model 3’s they were logging too much data, and they actually went through the lifespan of the memory in the vehicle. The fix was to log less. They eventually had to address that, but it took a long time to properly acknowledge. >Tesla said a reverse current may occur while powering up the vehicle, which could cause a short circuit on the car’s computer board and result in the rear-view camera becoming inoperative, the automaker said. >The automaker said the issue was the result of a sequence of specific software and hardware configurations, coupled with colder temperatures. >Tesla said it has already pushed a software update to vehicles that changes the vehicle power up sequence to prevent the shorting failure. Tesla will identify any vehicles with a circuit board issue and replace the car’s computer if necessary. >The automaker launched an investigation after seeing an increase in car computer replacements relating to short circuit issues in November. >Tesla said it has 887 warranty claims and 68 field reports related to the recall but said it is not aware of any collisions, injuries or fatalities related to the condition >Tesla said Model 3, Model S and Model X vehicles in production also received a different car computer variant after Dec. 16 to address the issue. >The issue affects 2024-25 Model 3 and Model S vehicles and 2023-25 Model X and Model Y.

Compares Turning Radius to Turning Circle and "Stands By The Numbers I Found" - Lemmy.World

Having a discussion about turning radius of the EV trucks, and a person takes a radius for 2 vehicles, and then compares it to the turning circle of the 3rd. I try to politely point out that the numbers he’s comparing aren’t the same, and then he replies that he “stands by the numbers I found” https://lemmy.world/comment/14256612 [https://lemmy.world/comment/14256612]

Just been thinking about this since posting. Why only the US and why so long if only US?

If they’re using different parts in US and it’s fine in the EU, then switch to what the EU is doing and be quick about it?

If it’s the same, then maybe we’ll hear about an EU recall soon?

Volkswagen to halt US ID.4 production following 100K vehicle recall - Lemmy.World

>The company’s letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) stated the door handles could allow water to enter the circuit board assembly, which may lead to the doors opening unexpectedly. >According to Volkswagen, the production halt could last until the beginning of next year as it works to resolve the issue.
