Nature of the initiative
------------------------

Hw3claim.nl is a private initiative by Mischa Sigtermans. It is not a law firm and not legal advice. Signing up does not create an attorney-client relationship.

Sign-up
-------

Sign-up is free and non-binding. By signing up you confirm that you've filled in the form truthfully, that you agree to these terms and the privacy statement, and that you're an owner or former owner of a Tesla with Hardware 3 or older (HW2/HW2.5), with or without a purchased FSD package.

No guarantee of outcome
-----------------------

Participation offers no guarantee of any specific legal or financial outcome. We aim for a constructive solution but can't guarantee one.

Existing legal proceedings
--------------------------

In some countries class actions or similar proceedings are already under way. In the United States, a federal FSD case is pending in California (Cotchett, Pitre &amp; McCarthy LLP); its August 2025 class certification was vacated on appeal on 16 October 2026. In Australia, a class action runs through JGA Saddler. If you live in one of those jurisdictions and want to exercise your rights in that proceeding, please contact the relevant law firm directly. Registering with hw3claim.nl is not a substitute for participating in a local action, and it does not exclude it either. The jurisdictions page shows what is happening in each country.

Use of the site
---------------

You can read and share the content of this site for non-commercial purposes with attribution. Bulk scraping, automated sign-ups and attempts to bypass security are not permitted.

Tesla marks
-----------

Tesla, Model 3, Model S, Model X, Model Y, Full Self-Driving and other marks mentioned are the property of Tesla, Inc. Use on this site is purely descriptive and factual.

Changes
-------

These terms may be updated. Material changes will be communicated to confirmed participants by email.

Governing law and jurisdiction
------------------------------

These terms and your use of this site are governed by Dutch law. Disputes are submitted in principle to the competent court in Amsterdam. For participants outside the Netherlands, mandatory consumer protection rules in your country of habitual residence continue to apply and prevail over these terms, including rules on which court has jurisdiction; as a consumer you can usually bring proceedings before the court of your place of residence.

 [      ](https://hw3claim.nl/en)Tesla promised that every car with Hardware 3 would become fully self-driving. FSD is now rolling out across the EU, but not on our cars. Every HW3 owner is affected, whether or not they purchased FSD.
