A woman in China was ordered to pay more than $20,000 for defaming Elon Musk's $1.1 trillion company and publicly apologize after her Tesla's brakes malfunctioned, sending both of her parents to the hospital.
Zhang Yazhou's father was driving her Tesla Model 3 in February 2021 when the brakes suddenly stopped working, The Associated Press reported. He crashed into two vehicles and a concrete barrier. While Yazhou and her 1-year-old niece were uninjured, her parents spent four days in the hospital while her father recovered from a concussion.
