STRUCTURE:BODY
- The defect
- Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling one 2022 Model X vehicle. A body structure reinforcement bracket was not installed at the second-row seat. As such, this vehicle fails to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 207, "Seating Systems" and 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."
- What it can cause
- The second-row seat may not properly restrain occupants during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Tesla will replace the vehicle, free of charge. The recall was completed April 28, 2022. Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 1 vehicle this is a small campaign: 100% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2022, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Tesla vehicles have been recalled over the structure once before this, most recently in November 2020 as 20V710000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 125 complaints with NHTSA, 3 of them before this campaign was filed. 8 of those name the structure, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 21 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V283000 (back over prevention), 25V172000 (air bags), 24V967000 (air bags), 24V554000 (latches/locks/linkages).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Tesla, Inc. with NHTSA on April 18, 2022 as campaign 22V264000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
