Tesla's Decision to Cut FM Radio Sparks Backlash
Broadcast leaders are speaking out against Tesla's decision to eliminate FM radio from its new Model 3 and Model Y trims, citing concerns over public safety and consumer choice.
- The move makes Tesla the first major automaker to remove over-the-air radio entirely.
- The change comes as Congress considers the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act, a bipartisan bill that would require automakers to include AM radio as a standard safety feature.
Free, local radio is not a luxury.
Industry leaders, including the NAB, are warning that the move underscores the urgency of legislation to protect broadcast access in cars.
