Tesla HW3 claim grows to 7,000 owners, gets law firm backing for collective action

A collective claim against Tesla concerning alleged broken "Full Self-Driving" promises for vehicles equipped with Hardware 3 has grown to nearly 7,000 verified participants. The initiative, which began in April with an initial 3,000 signups in its first week, has now secured the backing of the law firm Kennedy Van der Laan to pursue formal legal action. The case is being prepared for transfer to a foundation that will represent all participants under Dutch collective action law. This legal action aims to address claims that Tesla's Full Self-Driving capabilities, as advertised, were not delivered on vehicles utilizing the HW3 computer. The growing number of participants indicates significant dissatisfaction among owners regarding the performance and delivery of the promised autonomous driving features. The involvement of a prominent law firm like Kennedy Van der Laan suggests a robust legal strategy is being developed to challenge Tesla's representations and potentially seek compensation for affected owners.
