The US electric car manufacturer Tesla has threatened after a settlement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, apparently again a new legal problem. According to a Wall Street Journal ("WSJ") report, the FBI is investigating whether technology billionaire Elon Musk's company has misinformed the production of their 3 Hope model.
Prosecutions by the US prosecutor's office in San Francisco against Tesla have escalated in recent weeks, writes "WSJ," citing insiders.
The Tesla press office acknowledged on request that the Ministry of Justice had requested this year's production forecast for Model 3 documents. However, this had happened months before, they had cooperated with the requests and since then they have not received any further requests for information or summons. At the start of Model 3 production, Tesla opted for transparency and openly addressed the issues, she added.
The Department of Justice and the Attorney General of San Francisco did not comment on the report. In the stock market, Tesla shares initially lost all their significant gains, but were able to catch up quickly.
