California Will Decide Whether to Combine Multiple Tesla Lawsuits Into a Single Class-Action Complaint
A California judge will decide whether two complaints filed against Tesla will be combined into a single lawsuit, as plaintiffs across the US pursue a class action over Solar Roof price hikes.
Eight Tesla customers this week filed a complaint in US District Court in the Northern District of California, alleging the company violated California law by increasing the price after they’d signed contracts.
The complaint said Tesla’s actions were a “classic bait-and-switch,” increasing the agreed-upon price for each customer’s Solar Roofs and energy-storage batteries, called Powerwalls.
