Waymo is recalling nearly 4,000 robotaxis due to safety concerns after multiple instances of the vehicles entering closed construction zones on highways. The recall addresses a flaw in the vehicles' ability to recognize and avoid these areas.
Waymo has identified at least 13 instances where its robotaxis drove into highway sections closed for construction, according to a report from TechCrunch. The company initiated the recall to address the issue and prevent future incidents.
The recall affects approximately 3,997 vehicles. Waymo intends to deploy a software update to resolve the problem, enabling the robotaxis to better identify and respond to highway construction zones. The company did not provide a timeline for the completion of the recall or the rollout of the software update.
