Waymo recalls entire Robotaxi fleet after cars repeatedly enter active construction zones
Waymo has voluntarily recalled 3,871 vehicles after 13 documented incidents of driverless cars entering active freeway construction zones at speed.
The recall addresses a software defect in the 5th-generation Automated Driving System that fails to recognize construction zone barriers.
Incidents occurred in Phoenix, Arizona and San Francisco, California between April and May 2026.
No collisions or injuries were reported, but federal regulators warn the defect increases collision risk.
This marks Waymo’s second full-fleet recall in two months, following a May recall for vehicles driving into floodwaters.
