Service bulletins for the 2017 Tesla Model X
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

| SB-17-11-003 R1 | 2019-10-07. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY; LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH. On some Model X vehicles, the rear door edge protector might allow water to enter the door latches or cinching actuators on the rear (Falcon Wing) doors. If the vehicle is then parked outdoors in freezing conditions the water can freeze, resulting in interference with door operation. The doors will function properly when the water unfreezes. |

Water may enter the door latches or cinching actuators of the rear (Falcon Wing) doors. If the vehicle is then parked outdoors in freezing conditions, the water can freeze, potentially interfering with the closing functionality of the rear doors until the water unfreezes. |
| SB-18-11-004 R2 | 2018-12-10. Service bulletin. LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES. On some Model X vehicles, water might enter the door latches or cinching actuators on the rear doors, which can damage certain components integral to automated door latching operation. If a component fails, manual door latching operation is not affected. Certain components have been redesigned to allow water to drain better and protect them from water damage. |
