As a result, the bolts could loosen over time and the caliper could contact the wheel rim. If this happens, damage to the wheel rim could cause a sudden loss of tire pressure. \r\n\r\nSafety Risk: \r\nA sudden loss of tire pressure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. \r\n\r\nCorrective Actions: \r\nTesla will notify owners and arrange for an inspection of the brake caliper bolts. They will be tightened, if necessary. If damage from a loose or missing bolt is found during the inspection, Tesla Service will arrange for a tow to the nearest service center for repair.",
