TSLA is back under the scrutiny of authorities as the California DMV, or Department of Motor Vehicles, filed a lawsuit to ban Tesla from selling cars in the state for 30 days over false advertising.Check out the current price of TSLA stock here.What Happened: The DMV claims that Elon Musk's EV giant has misled consumers about the capabilities of Tesla's Autopilot and Full Self-Driving features, Electrek reported on Monday.The DMV launched a probe into Tesla in 2021 for misleading advertising and officially sent in an inquiry to the company in 2022, asking Tesla to respond to &#34;creating incorrect perceptions&#34; about its systems, the report suggests.However, Tesla states that the alerts in the FSD or Autopilot system, asking drivers to be attentive, should be enough to offset any misleading statements. A court has now scheduled a 5-day hearing and the DMV is pursuing a 30-day suspension of Tesla's dealer license in the state, the report says.&#34;The Department seeks an order suspending Respondent's manufacturer and dealer licenses for not less than thirty (30) days,&#34; the DMV appeal to the court states.Why It Matters: Any suspension on Tesla's sales could prove to be detrimental for the company, which has experienced a 12.6% decline in sales in the U.S. during Q2, but remains a segment leader with 44% EV market share.Tesla's sales, however, have experienced a rebound in China, where the company recorded over 12.3k insured registrations in July's second week. Tesla also filed for a long-range Model 3+ trim in China, offering over 500 miles on a single charge.The automaker also shared that it recorded over 3 million Model 3 units sold worldwide.
