Citat:
Walmart claims in a new lawsuit that Tesla was negligent in operating and managing 244 solar-roof contracts it had with the retailer.
Walmart's complaint said Tesla's negligence resulted in fires in at least seven cases. Those fires resulted in store closings and millions in lost merchandise.
It's likely that none of this would have happened if Tesla hadn't acquired the solar-services company SolarCity, which some critics said was a mistake in the first place.
Tesla did not respond to Business Insider's repeated requests for comment.
The suit also said that Tesla had no accurate drawings of the solar panels and no processes or employees trained in inspecting or fixing them. In fact, according to the suit, Walmart employees had to show Tesla employees where there were cracks and temperature issues on the solar panels (which, again, Tesla owned and operated).
SolarCity, helmed by Musk's cousin, Lyndon Rive, was going bankrupt and heavily in debt in 2016. Just before Musk announced that he was offering to buy it, Goldman Sachs said SolarCity was the "worst positioned" for growth in its sector. Ultimately, the company added another $700 million in cash burn a quarter to Tesla's already-strained balance sheet.
Walmart said in its complaint, "based on Tesla's history of deficient and incompetent inspections, including Tesla's reliance on untrained, unqualified, and unsupervised personnel to install and maintain the systems."
