Tesla must fix software in more than 2mn US vehicles after safety ruling
警示灯字体太小 特斯拉被勒令发布软件更新
Regulator says small font size on warning lights is difficult to read, ‘increasing the risk of a crash’
美国国家公路交通安全管理局称,特斯拉汽车仪表板警示灯所用的小字体可能使“关键安全信息难以阅读,从而增加碰撞风险”。
Tesla must fix the software of more than 2mn US vehicles, its third major safety update in the space of three months, coming at the end of a fraught week for the US electric-car maker.The software update on 2.2mn vehicles covers Tesla’s 3, S, X and Y models and its new Cybertruck, almost every car the company has ever sold in the US, and was ordered because warning lights on the instrument panel are too small, according to federal safety standards.
特斯拉(Tesla)必须修复200多万辆美国汽车的软件,这将是三个月内的第三次重大安全更新。这家美国电动汽车制造商经历了波折不断的一周。
The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said the small font size on the lights “can make critical safety information on the instrument panel difficult to read, increasing the risk of a crash”.
220万辆汽车的软件更新,涵盖特斯拉的3、S、X和Y车型以及新出的赛博卡车(Cybertruck),几乎影响到该公司在美国售出的所有汽车,被勒令更新的原因是按照联邦安全标准,这些车仪表板上的警示灯太小了。
The digital fix involves increasing the font size for Tesla’s brake, park and anti-lock brake system, which are smaller than the mandated size, the NHTSA said.
美国国家公路交通安全管理局(NHTSA)表示,这些警示灯所用的小字体“可能使仪表板上的关键安全信息难以阅读,从而增加碰撞风险”。
