Tesla tells HW3 owner to ‘be patient’ after 7 years of waiting for FSD

The Dutch Tesla owner who launched a collective claim against Tesla over FSD on HW3 cars called Tesla to ask about the €6,400 he paid for “Full Self-Driving” in 2019. After 7 years of waiting, Tesla’s answer was to “just be patient.”

It’s an almost comically tone-deaf response that perfectly encapsulates Tesla’s approach to the HW3 problem — and it’s only going to fuel the growing legal pressure in Europe.

What Tesla told an HW3 owner on the phone

Mischa Sigtermans, the Dutch Model 3 owner who launched the HW3 collective claim site we reported on earlier this week, called Tesla today and recorded the entire conversation. He posted the details in a thread on X.
