Seven US senators have written to Tesla CEO Elon Musk, raising concerns about the company's use of forced arbitration clauses in employee and consumer contracts. The senators argue that these clauses prevent discrimination claims and consumer safety complaints from being brought to court. The senators cited numerous incidents of alleged racial and sexual harassment, as well as complaints about Tesla's vehicles and its Full Self-Driving Beta software. The senators sought answers to detailed questions by June 8 about Tesla's use of forced arbitration.

Seven US senators, including Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, have written to Tesla CEO Elon Musk urging him to end the company's use of forced arbitration clauses in employee and customer contracts. The senators argue that such clauses have allowed workers' complaints of racist discrimination and other bad working conditions to remain hidden from public view. The lawmakers also expressed concern that consumer complaints of phantom braking that occurred in Tesla vehicles have been obscured by forced arbitration clauses in customer contracts.
