The U.S.’ top automotive safety regulator is notching up its investigation into the performance of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (Supervised) driving software in low-visibility conditions.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) said on Thursday that it has upgraded the probe it launched in October 2024 to what’s known as an “engineering analysis,” its highest level of scrutiny. It’s a step that is often required before the agency tells a company to issue a recall.
