Tesla ordered to pay $162,000 in Quebec Model X fire case after court rejects vandalism defense
A Quebec court ordered Tesla Canada to reimburse an insurer C$161,700 for a 2020 Model X that burned in Montreal after an expert traced the fire to a dashboard electrical failure. The judge rejected Tesla's claim that fires are generally caused by misuse or vandalism, noting the automaker offered no supporting data.
