Tesla recalls Powerwall 2 over battery fire risk [View all]
Tesla recalls Powerwall 2 over battery fire risk
electrek.co | Fred Lambert | Sep 16 2025
Tesla has issued a recall for its Powerwall 2 battery units sold between November 2020 and June 2022 over a potential risk of battery fire.
When it comes to Tesla, we are used to seeing vehicle recalls, but now we learn of a recall of Powerwall 2, the company’s popular home battery pack.
Tesla has received several reports of battery cells failing in Powerwall 2 units, leading to some fires.
The company wrote in a recall notice in Australia:
Tesla has identified certain lithium-ion battery cells from a third-party supplier in a subset of Powerwall 2 systems that may fail and overheat. Tesla has received reports of Powerwall 2 units with the affected battery cells smoking or emitting flames, resulting in minor property damage.
