Tesla Wins Appeal as Court Overturns FSD Class Action Certification
美国联邦第九巡回上诉法院在 10 月 16 日的裁决中撤销了 LoSavio v. Tesla 一案的集体认证，认定下级法院不当推定所有买家都接触过特斯拉关于 FSD 硬件的争议宣传。该案 2022 年提起，争议宣传声称 2016 年 10 月之后售出的车辆已具备完全自动驾驶所需硬件。裁决撤销了两个损害赔偿集体与一个禁令救济集体，但诉讼本身并未被驳回，案件发回地区法院继续审理；另有一桩 2026 年 6 月提起的 HW3 集体诉讼在独立进行。

Tesla has secured a legal victory in California after a federal appeals court overturned class certification in a lawsuit accusing the automaker of misleading customers about the hardware needed for Full Self-Driving (FSD).
In an October 16 ruling, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit found that a lower court had improperly assumed Tesla buyers were exposed to the company’s allegedly misleading advertising. The decision vacates the certification of three classes, but does not dismiss the lawsuit itself.
The case, LoSavio v. Tesla, dates back to 2022 and centres on Tesla’s claims about the self-driving capabilities of its vehicles. According to Insurance Journal, the disputed advertising claimed vehicles sold from October 2016 onward contained the hardware necessary for full self-driving capability.
The lawsuit is separate from a newer HW3 class action filed in June 2026, which also challenges Tesla’s promises about FSD compatibility.
In its latest decision, the appeals court determined that visiting Tesla’s website did not necessarily mean customers had viewed the specific hardware statement.
The judges pointed out that buyers were not required to visit Tesla’s Autopilot webpage before purchasing FSD. Website traffic data and other advertising statements were also insufficient to establish exposure across the entire class.
The court additionally found that determining when individual customers encountered Tesla’s claims complicated the statute of limitations analysis.
As a result, the court vacated certification of two damages classes and a third class seeking injunctive relief.
Tesla has denied the allegations. The appeals court did not determine whether Tesla’s advertising was misleading.
The case now returns to the district court for further proceedings, leaving the underlying claims unresolved.
