U.S. District Judge Haywood Gilliam in Oakland, California, in a decision issued on Saturday said four Tesla owners who filed a proposed class action last year had agreed to arbitrate any legal claims against the company when they accepted its terms and conditions while purchasing vehicles through a Tesla website.

The lawsuit accuses Tesla of repeatedly making false statements indicating that its advanced driver assistance systems technology was on the verge of delivering fully self-driving vehicles.
