The issue popped up after a software reset and mutes the PWS to the extent that those outside the car can't hear it

Tesla has recalled 6,557 vehicles over safety concerns related to pedestrian warning systems. The automaker says that the PWS doesn't meet current safety standards after a factory reset of the cars in question. It'll now update the affected vehicles with a new software revision that mends the problem. The issue stems from a report on February 6th when an investigation uncovered an issue with PWS on an internal fleet vehicle.

Notably, the problem affects all cars in the Tesla lineup save for the original Roadster and the Cybertruck. Specifically, it affects the Model S including the 2013 model year along with model years 2018 through 2021. The Model X from 2020 and 2021 is also included as is the Tesla Model 3 from 2018 through 2022 and the Model Y from 2020 through 2022.
