Yeah. This is a non-story; it makes a good headline but no one has been slapped. Tesla just noted that they received some papers which noted that for the internal purposes of the ranking, it got 5.4 stars. Then the NHTSA made a clarification that the official ranking actually doesn't go past 5 stars. It's good for Tesla shareholders that Forbes decided to run with this story, though. Free advertising. There is no way anyone will ever perceive a fight about whether the car should have 5 or 5.4 stars as negative.
