The company is facing a criminal investigation over its claims. The US Department of Justice launched an investigation late last year after a number of crashes involving the company's autopilot feature.
Since the beginning of the year, Musk has said he will deliver on his promise of self-driving cars. He went from saying that there would be 1 million robotaxis on the road by the end of the year to saying that there would be 1 million people in the fsd.
There were more than a dozen crashes that the US Department of Justice is investigating.
The autopilot feature is a standard feature of the cars from the company. For an additional $15,000, owners can purchase the FSD option, which Musk has promised will one day deliver fully autonomously capable capabilities. The driver must remain fully engaged in the operation of the vehicle while it is in motion in order for the system to remain Level 2.
The software will be released before the end of the year, according to the company.
The software is hated by safety advocates and loved by fans. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating 16 crashes in which the owners of electric vehicles crashed into stationary emergency vehicles. An engineering analysis is the second and final phase of an investigation before a recall.
Customers have sued the company for misleading them about the capabilities of their vehicles. Musk wants to portrayTesla as a leader in artificial intelligence and robot technology. There have been no serious consequences in Musk's pursuit of being at the cutting edge of technology.
An investigation by the Justice Department carries a higher level of scrutiny since it could lead to criminal charges being brought against executives of the company. The federal prosecutors in Washington and San Francisco are looking into whether the company misled consumers, investors, and regulators.
