What the source says
The documented condition
NHTSA lists the 2022 Tesla Model Y in safety campaign 21V912000. The official record says: The front and rear suspension knuckles may fracture, causing the suspension links to separate. The stated safety consequence is: Suspension links that separate can reduce vehicle stability and control, increasing the risk of a crash. A make, model and year match does not confirm that a specific VIN is included or that the repair remains open.
