- A U.S. judge on Wednesday rejected Tesla's bid to dismiss a lawsuit accusing Elon Musk's electric car company of misleading owners into believing that their vehicles could soon have self-driving capabilities.
U.S. District Judge Rita Lin in San Francisco said owners could pursue negligence and fraud-based claims, to the extent they relied on Tesla's representations regarding vehicles' hardware and ability to drive coast-to-coast across the U.S.Without ruling on the merits, Lin said that "if Tesla meant to convey that its hardware was sufficient to reach high or full automation, the plainly alleges sufficient falsity.
LoSavio said he was still waiting for the technology six years later, with Tesla remaining unable "even remotely" to produce a fully self-driving car. Tesla has for many years faced federal probes into whether its self-driving technology might have contributed to fatal crashes.
