Has anyone tested this clause? Tesla can write whatever they want into a contract; that doesn't mean it'll be held up in the courts.

When Tesla sues you over it, can you afford a lawyer to defend yourself?

Claim:Tesla institutes a strict no suit policy in tech to promote adoption of electric cars.

Supporting evidence: + all their patents are open for that reason. + Elon has said personally that it is of no use to be the last human standing on a sinking ship.

Personally, I think they may actually fancy people doing their own repairs.
