Tesla hit with warning over potentially misleading claims about vehicle features: 'Clearly constitutes false advertising'
"France's General Directorate for Competition Policy stated that Tesla's marketing of its full self-driving (FSD) technology overstates the actual functionality, constituting false advertising."
"The Level 2 self-driving system requires drivers to remain responsible, keeping hands on the steering wheel, which officials argue makes Tesla's marketing campaign deceptive."
In France, Tesla has been warned by the General Directorate for Competition Policy, Consumer Affairs and Fraud Control for misleading marketing of its full self-driving (FSD) capabilities. The agency claims that Tesla overstates the technology's functionality, a situation classified as false advertising. As a Level 2 system, FSD requires driver oversight, making the marketing language deceptive. Additionally, Tesla's sales practices, such as issuing contracts without delivery specifics and not providing receipts for cash transactions, have drawn scrutiny. A compliance order imposes potential fines if Tesla does not address these issues.
