The electric car manufacturer Tesla is recalling almost half a million Model 3 and Model S vehicles in America.

Because of problems with the reversing camera, 356,309 Model 3s are ordered to the workshops, according to a document from the US Vehicle Safety Authority (NHTSA).

The wiring harness of the reversing camera could be damaged by opening and closing the trunk lid and the reversing camera could fail.

All Model 3 from model years 2017 to 2020 would therefore be recalled, the authority said.

In addition, 119.009 Model S are being recalled due to incorrect assembly of the front trunk (Frunk).

As a result, it could suddenly open up and obstruct the driver's view.
