A Second Chinese Owner Issues Apology For Fabricated Tesla Brake Failure Story

Tesla fended off many instances of misinformation campaigns in China over the past two years, many of which were owners stating the vehicles had braking issues, which in turn led to accidents. On several occasions, Tesla has confronted these owners with the opportunity to prove the vehicles were faulty, even offering third-party examinations of the cars involved in accidents. Tesla did this with one owner who stood on top of a company vehicle at the Shanghai Auto Show last year, claiming the car she bought from the automaker was not safe. She refused to oblige with Tesla’s third-party audit request, and data from the vehicle showed it was driven aggressively prior to the accident.
