I mean, if Tesla thinks the guy is the owner, then he should be able to know where it is and control it. If he was no longer the owner, they should have updated that with Tesla.
Yeah sounds like a simple case
Yeah, but look at the source.
Same article could say women tried to block co-owner from vehicle.
Over two years of she was in such fear of husband why didn’t she buy out/sell the car she has co-owned title on.
Maybe she didn’t have the funds to buy out an expensive car.
You’re literally blaming the victim here.
It’s not about who is the owner. They both were. It’s about the fact that Tesla only supports having 1 owner, and the husband set himself up as the owner and added the wife as an additional driver.
Honestly, I don’t see a good way out of this without adding a feature that only the profile that unlocked the car last being able to see where it is. That’s not a feature they have, nor are legally required to provide.
Usually in cases like this the court looks to who makes the payments. He may be co owner but if he hasn’t made any payments since separating and hasn’t used the vehicle it isn’t his.

According to a lawsuit filed by the abused, the man was listed as the primary owner of the 2016 Tesla Model X they shared
He’s allowed to track his own car lol
To be fair, if he knowingly used the feature at all he also knows he breached the restraining order.
The correct outcome here was he declares it to the court and the car becomes single owner.
Wait a minute. The cars can barely drive, and now you want them to enforce the law???
That is the most insane shit I’ve ever heard.
Imagine if your self driving car refused to take you to certain areas due to government orders.
And then crashed into a motorcycle because self driving cars don’t work and you were supposed to be paying attention even though it’s marketed as self driving.
Sounds like the restraining order should have listed out additional remedies, or maybe even made her the sole owner.
