A product that has a warranty which depends on any “predictive” metric is probably a scam, tbh.

Their insurance is (was?) kind of like that as well if you get the saftey score one. While some things are more general like following distance, they have one for forward collision warnings.
I’m not sure how much time you’ve spent in a Tesla, but that system is notorious for going off incorrectly. It’s specifically really bad with parked cars on the side of the road on turns. So you’re driving along, and it goes off and now your insurance premiums are more expensive.
I don’t think you could find a single Tesla owner who hasn’t had multiple false warnings, and consistently in certain circumstances.
So someone of course starts a lawsuit and Tesla initially defends itself, but just last week or something like that, it’s no longer part of the safety score
