Summary: Jiyoung Yoon, both personally and in her capacity as Administratrix of Jyung Woo Hahn's Estate, initiated legal proceedings against Tesla Motors, Inc. The lawsuit alleges that the 2020 Tesla Model 3, owned by Mr. Hahn, was defective and posed an unreasonable risk, resulting in a fatal accident and subsequent explosion. The plaintiff contends that Tesla was negligent in its obligation to design, manufacture, assemble, produce, distribute, and market a vehicle that was safe, free from defects, and crashworthy. The lawsuit further alleges that Tesla did not sufficiently test, inspect, or guarantee the quality of the vehicle prior to its sale, nor did it provide adequate warnings, instructions, or information. The lawsuit also asserts that Tesla violated the implied warranty of merchantability by selling a defective and non-crashworthy vehicle to Mr. Hahn, thereby rendering it unfit for its intended use. The plaintiff maintains that these defects were present when the vehicle was under Tesla's control and directly led to Mr. Hahn's injuries and subsequent death. In light of these alleged violations, the plaintiff is seeking a judgment against Tesla for all recoverable damages. These include actual, consequential, economic, non-economic damages, lost wages and earning capacity, loss of consortium, loss of parental guidance, mental anguish, emotional distress, pain and suffering, conscious pain and suffering of Jyung Woo Hahn, punitive damages, costs, and interest. The plaintiff is demanding a jury trial on all matters and any additional relief that the Court may deem appropriate. The lawsuit was filed on August 18, 2023.
