about 130,000 vehicles in the United States following an overheating

country's auto safety regulator said on Tuesday. |

The
recall covers all Tesla models made in 2021 and 2022 and the
electric-vehicle maker will provide an over-the-air software
update to resolve the issue, according to the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
The infotainment system's CPU overheating could prevent the
center screen from displaying images from the rearview camera,
warning lights and other information, the NHTSA said.
Tesla recalled 48,000 Model 3 Performance vehicles in the U.S.
in April for an issue that may not display the speedometer when
in "Track Mode".
