Tesla plans to recall about 11,000 Model X crossover vehicles due to possible issues with their second-row fold-flat seats.

Tesla has not received reports of any issues or accidents relating to the problem, it said. “We will be conducting a voluntary recall to inspect the affected vehicles and confirm wh...
