Saleen Automotive, Inc. (fka SLNN)

[AutoInvestor]

Saleen takes a lot of short cuts and always has.
No surprise that many of the Tesla performance claims made by Saleen are not true or cannot be validated. Saleen has been sued by:

1) S7 Customers for Engine Failures
2) Ford Dealerships for stealing 7 Mustangs
3) Ford for the Focus recall
4) NTSB for Safety Violations (no Airbags)
5) NTSB for no certifications on the S7 and the Focus
6) Customers - Lemon Law cases
7) Court of Sussex England for contract performance failure
8) Banks for lack of payment
9) Vendors for lack of payment


The facts regarding the Warranty on Tesla is that any modification of the tuning of the car or suspension by Saleen or the Customer directly would void the Tesla Warranty. You cannot expect Tesla to fix a problem for free that was the result of "high performance" treatments added by a tuner company (Saleen).

By the way,As a result of the Saleen N2O Focus recall Ford issued a letter to all the Ford Dealerships which clarified specifically that if Tuned or Modified Ford's (Mustang, Focus, F150's, etc..) show up at the dealerships that they are prohibited from processing the repairs under a Warranty claim that would be paid for by Ford. The customer would have to pay for 100% of the repairs and the Ford Service authorization form was changed to include this notice.
