In all seriousness, who would you contest it with? That's the kind of scenario that scares me with Tesla. You can't take to social media to put pressure on a local dealer because they don't exist, and say anything vaguely negative about Tesla and you'll be swarmed by Elons fan army.


Not only that, when things get stupid people often sue car dealerships and have surprisingly good odds at success if the story is at all reasonable against the dealer. (sold cars for 10 years, saw some very favorable outcomes for customers) and for that reason dealers also give in pretty easily if they've actually done wrong.

Compare that to taking Tesla itself to court.


Small claims court has a $12,500 limit in CA. Sounds like a decent fit.
