Tesla (TSLA) has settled a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the widow of a man who died in 2021 after his Tesla crashed and caught fire, according to a court document filed Monday.
Financial terms of the settlement were not available.
The lawsuit alleged that pedal confusion, pedal misapplication, or sudden unintentional acceleration were the main causes of Tesla crashes. A trial date had been set for April 13, 2026.
"Tesla knew about 'numerous complaints of sudden acceleration' in Tesla vehicles, which have 'manifested in every Tesla model line to date at rates that far exceed historical rates for any other vehicles,'" the complaint argued.
Tesla did not immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
