A Tesla influencer randomly caught his odometer double-counting mileage on video. Wild.

One of the drivers mentioned in this article has a youtube video showing his odometer going from 124,999 to 125,001, completely skipping 125,000. One of the comments asks him to reach out to the law firm handling the class action lawsuit, but the owner replies with:

Happy to help if you're interested in paying a consultation fee for my time-- but otherwise these actions only enrich the law firms and I'm not volunteering to do that.

This mindset is so frustrating. Class action lawsuits are legit, they hold companies accountable and they pay out cash to people. To say that they only enrich law firms is not just wrong, but I think actually harmful to repeat like he has, especially in the great age of enshittification where everything tries to force binding arbitration agreements into every contract and agreement.

Sounds like he's more loyal to Tesla than to the consumers it hurt

Brace for downvoting from the Teslaholics cult.

I have heard they're still on the old site. I dunno, I avoid the old site as much as possible.
