Tesla Motors Inc. Tests Self-Driving Technology

Due to a possible defect in the front seatbelts, Tesla is recalling 90,000 of its Model S electric sedans. The company announced the move today, adding that the cost of recalling so many vehicles is "immaterial" as it checks to ensure the restraints are safe. First revealed back in 2012, the Model S is no stranger to safety issues, including a number of fires, all of which Tesla has been quick to respond to. The potential problem with the seatbelts was first reported to the company earlier this month when a customer in Europe turned to speak with back-seat passengers and the assembly broke.
