Tesla sued by deceased driver’s family over ‘fraudulent misrepresentation’ of Autopilot safety

(CNBC reporting) Tesla is being sued by the family of a driver who died in a 2023 collision, claiming that the company’s “fraudulent misrepresentation” of its Autopilot technology was to blame.

The Tesla driver, Genesis Giovanni Mendoza-Martinez, died in the crash involving a Model S sedan in Walnut Creek, California. His brother, Caleb, who had been a passenger at the time, was seriously injured.

The Mendoza family sued Tesla in October in Contra Costa County, but in recent days Tesla had the case moved from state court to federal court in California’s Northern District. The Independent first reported on the venue change. Plaintiffs generally face a higher burden of proof in federal court for fraud claims.

The incident involved a 2021 Model S, which smashed into a parked fire truck while the driver was using Tesla’s Autopilot, a partially automated driving system.

Mendoza’s attorneys alleged that Tesla and Musk have exaggerated or made false claims about the Autopilot system for years in order to, “generate excitement about the company’s vehicles and thereby improve its financial condition.” They pointed to tweets, company blog posts, and remarks on earnings calls and in press interviews.

Probably something to do with not having 100% of action heroes being white males.   Nothing breaks people brains more than a non white dude hero.  It’s hysterical
