This isn't a Tesla problem:

"the car is currently unsupported for supercharging and warranties are voided due to salvaged vehicle."

"I was told it was clean. The CARFAX said it was clean, and I trusted that," he said.

Tesla said it's a safety issue connecting a damaged vehicle to the powerful superchargers.

The vehicle was deemed totaled and sold to him as a normal used vehicle. I want to know what the title says, salvage or no? Not sure where he should direct his ire or legal firepower, if he has any.

Carfax is not the authority on title status. They only get what’s reported to them.

Spend a few bucks and do a title search with the state.

The owners said Illinois Secretary of State Police investigated and confirmed it has a clean title, and has never had a salvaged title.
