Transport Canada received a total of 171 consumer complaints regarding the performance of heating systems in Tesla Model 3 and Model Y vehicles after the agency opened an investigation into Tesla heat pump issues in January.
According to a report from Teslarati, the complaints included concerns about heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system performance during cold weather conditions. Transport Canada is primarily concerned with how the HVAC performance may impact windshield defogging and defrosting, and driver visibility. The agency has not issued an official recall yet.
