61 million vehicles were recalled because when the automatic assisted steering function is turned on, the driver may misuse the Level 2 combined driving assistance function, increasing the risk of vehicle collision and posing a safety hazard.

The reason why 7538 vehicles were recalled was that due to door unlocking logic control problems, in the event of a collision, the door latch on the non-collision side may disengage from the latch, leaving the door in an unlocked state, posing a safety hazard.

Similarly, Tesla solves the above two problems through Remote Vehicle Upgrade (OTA) technology to push new features and free software upgrades to vehicles within the recall scope.
