The government said on Thursday that four companies will recall more than 38-thousand vehicles over faulty components.

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport said in a statement that Tesla Korea and three other companies are recalling a combined 38-thousand-246 units across 14 models due to problems with vehicle parts.

Tesla Korea will recall over 33-thousand units of its Model 3 and Model Y over a software error that may prevent the activation of a chime reminding occupants to buckle their seatbelts.

About 200 units of the models will be recalled for software problems affecting the defrosting system.

Tesla will voluntarily recall the vehicles, carrying out a remote online software update from next Friday.

Audi-Volkswagen Korea, Bumhan Mobility and Kiheung Motors will recall about five-thousand units over a faulty passenger sensing system among other defective components.
