Tesla Motors is recalling 27-hundred Model X sport utility vehicles in the United States.

The recall has been prompted by a faulty locking hinge in the third-row seats that increases the risk the seats could fall forward in a crash.

The recall covers all Model X SUVs built before March 26 this year.

It is the first recall for the Model X since Tesla began deliveries of the luxury electric SUV in September.

The recall comes as Tesla sees an influx of advance orders for its Model 3 lower-cost sedan, which is due to begin production late next year.

The vehicle received 253-thousand advance orders in the first 36 hours after its high-profile unveiling on March 31.
