  The Twitter thread that was linked contains factual NHSTA info. "@russ1mitchell of LA Times wrote the article in which he claimed that NHTSA launched investigation into Tesla fires, later changing “investigation” to probe. This is FALSE. NHTSA initiated analysis of the Petition and rebuked Russ Mitchell for disinformation."

    Read the articles. They link to a PDF of the letter from the NHTSA to Tesla which outlines exactly what they're doing. You don't think the NHTSA is collecting documentation from Tesla for the fun of it, do you?

      >exactly what they're doing Yes, which is not an investigation. They're only conducting an analysis of the petition and asked Tesla for data. They have not opened an investigation, but you already know this if you're listening.

      Not only have I have read the original article written by Russ Mitchell mind you (Reuters's version is just a rehash). I also dug more into this and the Twitter thread contains the most factual info instead of speculation.

  I did, and it's why I posted the link to a thread that corrects them. The NHTSA did not open an investigation. They asked Tesla some data for analysis, and they will determine if facts corroborate the petition's claim. They may open an investigation at some point but they have not. C/D, Reuters and the LA Times know that, but for some reason, they prefer sensationalism to journalism.

    Yeah, I don't know what's up with all the misinformation. NHTSA isn't performing an "investigation". They are simply investigating claims that Tesla's catch on fire all the fucking time and following their common investigation protocols. It's totally normal.

    > They asked Tesla some data for analysis So you're saying they're investigating if further investigation is warranted? Wow, man. Wait for the 15th of December. The "non-investigation" will have reported back by then.
