Tesla calls broken Autopilot promises 'failure,' not 'fraud.'
Tesla and Elon Musk have repeatedly promised features for Autopilot that have either materialized years after promised deadlines or not at all. The chief executive of the company was telling customers that it'd be ready for coast-to-coast hands-off drives back in 2017, a goal that still seems distant today.
The lawsuit alleges that not delivering promised features amounts to fraud, as Tesla customers have paid up to $15,000 for software that still cannot do what the company said it would do back in 2016. That"Full Self-Driving" package is still in beta today, requiring complete driver attention as the car attempts to drive itself based on camera input alone.
, featuring cars driving on the wrong side of the road, not noticing pedestrians, or pulling into intersections. Clearly, that is a long way from what the term"Full Self-Driving" implies, a fact that will certainly be relevant to the case.Tesla says for its part that consumers should be aware of the limitations of the system at purchase and that the company's legal language is clear. The promises of Musk, therefore, aren't promises so much as goals.
