The California Department of Motor Vehicles said Tesla Inc. has come into compliance over marketing practices for its vehicles’ automated-driving capabilities and won’t face a 30-day suspension of sales in the state.
The agency said in a statement Tuesday that Tesla has taken “corrective action” to avoid the suspension.
In December the company was given 90 days to come into compliance after a ruling from an administrative judge on the state regulator’s allegations that Tesla was exaggerating the abilities of features marketed as Autopilot and Full Self-Driving.
The EV maker discontinued its Autopilot product in January. The company also has increasingly been using the term Full Self Driving (Supervised) to advertise its driver assistance product that is not fully autonomous and requires constant supervision.
Tesla didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
