Tesla recalls nearly three million vehicles in China over door-handle safety concerns

Tesla is recalling nearly three million vehicles in China after regulators raised concerns that electronic door handles may fail during emergencies.

Authorities said the design could make it difficult for occupants to open doors after crashes or electrical failures, creating a potential safety risk.

The recall affects several Tesla models and comes amid increasing global scrutiny of highly electronic vehicle systems that can become difficult to operate when power or software fails.
