In the recent Tesla software class action lawsuit, David Bui-Ford, Igor Kravchenko, Micah Siegal, and Lucas Butler have filed a lawsuit against Tesla Inc.
The suit alleges Tesla’s automatic software updates reduce battery performance and longevity in certain Model S and Model X vehicles.
This article provides an overview of the lawsuit, the implications for Tesla owners, and how Lemon Law Auto Fraud can help you protect your consumer rights and seek appropriate compensation.
Tesla Software Class Action Lawsuit Allegations: Performance Diminishment and Battery Issues
The class action lawsuit centers on the allegations that Tesla's automatic software updates have led to a battery performance decline in Tesla Model S and Model X vehicles.
The plaintiffs state these updates result in battery capacity depletion. As a result, Model S and X vehicles suffer a noticeable reduction in driving range.
The suit alleges Tesla owners are experiencing a significant drop in battery capacity or complete battery shutdowns following the installation of these software updates.
The performance issues allegedly caused by the updates have led to inconveniences for Tesla owners. Drivers need to stop more frequently for charging. Some face the potential cost of totally replacing their vehicle’s battery.
The suit also states drivers could pay anywhere from $500 to $750 to reverse the software update. They may have to pay up to $15,000 to replace their battery.
If you are the driver of a Tesla Model S or X vehicle, you may be entitled to the repair, replacement, and/or further damages for your vehicle under the lemon law.

Tesla's Denial and Legal Violations
The plaintiffs report Tesla denies any correlation between its automatic software updates and performance issues.
Despite customer concerns, Tesla maintains the updates have no adverse impact on the vehicles.
The class action lawsuit argues that Tesla's denial of the causal link between the software updates and the battery degrading violates consumer protection laws.
The plaintiffs assert Tesla is guilty of:
- Trespass to chattel
- Violation of California's Unfair Competition Law
- The California Computer Data Access and Fraud Act
- And the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act
In response, they demand a jury trial and seek injunctive relief, with punitive, exemplary, and treble damages for themselves and all class members affected by the software updates.
