Amazon's Zoox has issued a voluntary software recall following a minor accident in Las Vegas last month involving one of its robotaxis.
The incident occurred when a passenger car quickly approached the lane of the Zoox robotaxi, resulting in contact despite the robotaxi braking hard.
Zoox identified the root cause, issued a software update, and implemented it across all vehicles to ensure safety and regulatory compliance.
Amazon's Zoox, acquired in 2020 for $1.3 billion, is competing in the robotaxi market with companies like Alphabet's Waymo and Tesla's robotaxi, which is expected to launch in Austin in June 2025.
