Telsa is facing a new lawsuit announced Wednesday over allegations that several Tesla vehicles have engaged in unintended acceleration that can cause damage or injury. The lawsuit comes after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on Jan. 13 opened its review of a petition, which cites 127 consumer complaints and 123 individual vehicles, calling for an investigation into 500,000 Tesla vehicles with potential unintended acceleration issues. A California law firm is representing eight Tesla owners who say their various Telsa models have experienced sudden uncommanded acceleration, according to a press release.
