Tesla has issued a global recall of 90,000 Tesla Model S vehicles to check for a possible defect in the front seatbelt assemblies.

TESLA HAS SENT an email to 90,000 Tesla Model S owners advising them to take their vehicle to their local Tesla service centre to have the front seat belt assemble checked for a possible defect. The voluntary recall comes after one incident logged in Europe; there was no injury associated with the incident, Tesla said.

This isn’t the first time Tesla has launched a global recall and last year the company recalled more than 20,000 Model S sedans over a charging issue that could lead to a fire hazard, and in 2013 recalled a thousand Model S sedans to check on the strength of the rear seat mounting brackets.

Here’s what the email Tesla sent out said:

“We are sending you this email to inform you of a proactive action Tesla is taking to ensure your safety. Tesla recently found a Model S in Europe with a front seat belt that was not properly connected to the outboard lap pretensioner. This vehicle was not involved in a crash and there were no injuries. However, in the event of a crash, a seatbelt in this condition would not provide full protection. First and foremost, we care about your safety.

“Our records indicate you own a Model S affected by this voluntary recall. We will be sending you an official recall notice by mail, but you don’t need to wait for this notice to schedule your free inspection.”
