The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) raised concerns with Tesla regarding its promotion of the Full Self Driving (FSD) feature.
The agency expressed concerns that Tesla's messaging could lead drivers to believe the FSD feature does not require oversight.
NHTSA cited Tesla's social media posts, including examples of drivers using FSD in situations that suggested it could be used as a robotaxi without driver attention.
The agency is investigating the adequacy of Tesla's feedback and information provided to drivers, as well as the potential failure of FSD in specific situations.
