The National Highway Transportation Safety Association has taken Tesla to task, sending the electric carmaker a cease-and-desist letter regarding Tesla’s claims about the federal agency’s safety rating of the Model 3 sedan.
The NHTSA actually sent the letter to Tesla in October, but it became public late Tuesday after PlainSite, a legal-transparency information site, posted the letter online. PlainSite said it obtained the letter via a Freedom of Information Act request.
