Tesla owners around the world are taking the company to court, accusing the electric car company of unmet promises.

During the company's 2026 Quarter 1 earnings call, many car owners' dreams to sit behind the wheel and let the car drive itself were shattered.

FSD stands for full self-drive, a capability Tesla sold to car owners for years with the promise that one day, their car would be able to drive itself.

Benjamin Liu, a Tesla owner in New Zealand who had bought the capability in 2020, is taking his own action.
