Volkswagen is recalling more than 43,000 of its electric vehicles due to a risk of overheating batteries, which may pose a fire risk. The recall appears to be related to the company's ID.4 model. It is unclear if other manufacturers are also recalling their electric vehicles for similar reasons, as some reports mention recalls by other companies, including Mercedes-Benz and Hyundai, for fire risks, but it is not clear if these are related to the Volkswagen recall.
