It's a court filing, my dude.The information might be true but because Reuters has shown almost zero journalistic integrity towards Tesla, I’m highly dubious.
The moderator has cajones stipulating no politics when the post itself is pure politics :-(The information might be true but because Reuters has shown almost zero journalistic integrity towards Tesla, I’m highly dubious.
A California lawyer not reading the fine print. Golden!
Where? Not in the OP neither in the linked article.
It's an ongoing lawsuit and this is an update of what's happening.The case is In re Tesla Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Litigation, U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, No. 22-05240.
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."
…
The judge dismissed some other claims.
Tesla and its lawyers did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Lawyers for Tesla vehicle owners did not immediately respond to similar requests.
The case was led by Thomas LoSavio, a retired California lawyer who said he paid an $8,000 premium in 2017 for Full Self-Driving capabilities on a Tesla Model S, believing it would make driving safer if his reflexes deteriorated as he aged.
You can literally go look up the case information, with the case number provided in the article.LOL - still no court filing provided.
This is the problem with people still believing that legacy aka mainstream media aka fake news (especially reutrers) has any shred of credibility

A bad job? I'm literate and understood the limitations. Maybe the illiterate couldn't make it.Tesla did a bad job of marketing FSD. Charging a few thousand to enable basic ADAS features like TACC is actually in-line with industry pricing, but they also dangled "self-driving Real Soon Now" which led to angry customers when it didn't materialize.
Would I pay a few thousand for basic ADAS? Sure. Would I have paid extra for self-driving in 2015 with the promise that it might be finished in 10 years? lol no
If you paid for a "coming soon" feature that was still not delivered by the time the vehicle warranty expired, I think you deserve a refund, or at least transferability.
