French Tesla Owners Seek Early Contract Termination Over Elon Musk’s Political Statements

French Tesla owners are taking legal action, arguing that Elon Musk’s controversial political statements have significantly impacted the brand image and value of their vehicles. The lawsuit filed in a French court seeks to terminate existing lease agreements early without penalty, claiming that Musk’s actions constitute a breach of the peaceable enjoyment clause stipulated by French law. Ten Tesla customers are named in the case, with more potential plaintiffs expected if others feel negatively affected by Musk’s public statements.
