"has entered an interesting situation with its Full Self-Driving suite in California, as the State's Department of Motor Vehicles had adopted an order for a suspension of the company's sales license, but it immediately put it on hold. The company has been granted a reprieve as the DMV is giving Tesla an opportunity to "remedy the situation." After the suspension was recommended for 30 days as a penalty, the DMV said it would give Tesla 90 days to allow the company to come into compliance."
"The DMV is accusing Tesla of misleading consumers by using words like Autopilot and Full Self-Driving on its advanced driver assistance (ADAS) features. The State's DMV Director, Steve Gordon, said that he hoped "Tesla will find a way to get these misleading statements corrected." However, Tesla responded to the story on Tuesday, stating that this was a "consumer protection" order for the company using the term Autopilot. It said "not one single customer came forward to say there's a problem.""
