Tesla faces scrutiny from California regulators for allegedly misleading consumers about its Autopilot and Full Self-Driving software. The California Department of Motor Vehicles claims that Tesla's marketing implied that the car can fully drive itself, misleading consumers into thinking they could relax while driving. A five-day trial has commenced to consider whether Tesla's dealer license should be suspended or revoked due to these claims. Historically, Tesla has defended itself successfully against similar allegations, but the outcome of this trial remains uncertain as regulators take a firmer stance.
California regulators have once again claimed that Tesla misled consumers about the capabilities of its Autopilot and Full Self-Driving software. They argue that Tesla's marketing made its driver assistance features sound as if the vehicle could fully self-drive, leading to confusion among consumers.
A five-day trial kicked off in Oakland, where regulators are threatening to suspend or revoke Tesla's license to sell cars in the state if they find that Tesla misled consumers with advertising claims regarding Autopilot and Full Self-Driving.
