The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has launched a formal probe into Tesla’s latest self‑driving vehicle, signaling heightened scrutiny of the automaker’s autonomous technology. Regulators say the investigation will focus on the car’s sensor suite, software decision‑making and any reported incidents that may suggest safety deficiencies. Tesla, which has been expanding its Full Self‑Driving (FSD) capabilities, is expected to cooperate but has previously pushed back against government oversight. The move could have wide‑ranging implications for the rollout of driver‑assist features, industry standards and consumer confidence in autonomous cars.
