Bugaboo Dragonfly Seat Strollers

Tesla Autopilot Software

Tesla has recalled more than two million vehicles following pressure from U.S. regulators, who said the automaker had not done enough to ensure that drivers remained attentive when using a system that can steer, accelerate, and brake cars automatically. It covers nearly all cars the company has manufactured in the United States since 2012, including its most popular, the Model Y sport-utility vehicle.
