Apple may have considered buying Tesla [Report]
The report notes that Apple’s CEO Tim Cook may have also been involved in the meeting. It could just be a speculation as Apple executives could have met Musk to discuss a deal to integrate iOS devices with Tesla cars. However, it seems does seem odd that Apple’s head of acquisitions would be present in such a meeting.

San Francisco Chronicle reports:

In October 2013, German investment banking analyst Adnaan Ahmad created a media stir when he wrote an “open letter&rdqu...

Should companies that manufacture defective products that catch on fire and/or explode; manufacture medical devices? I think Tesla would be a bad liability for Apple. Tesla is a bubble that might bust finally and badly. Tesla's false claims and disregard for safety is increasingly putting itself in a position of liability. Tesla has been dragging its feet on safety and the recall. Tesla manufactures more excuses, then cars. The most recent Tesla garage fire to hit the news was in Toronto. The car supposedly wasn't even plugged in, so the charging system isn't likely to be a source. I'm hoping to hear reports from the fire departments investigation, because I don't trust Tesla's 'fire investigations', which seem more like coverups. There has been at least five Tesla fires. Two Teslas caught on fire after only running over road debris. One Tesla caught on fire and exploded after being in an accident in Mexico. There was a Tesla fire in a California garage, that the Tesla charger connection was ruled as a possible source of the fire by the fire department. Recently there was a Tesla garage fire in Toronto, that so far I haven't heard the fire department give a ruling. Arguably there has been scores, possibly hundreds of minor Tesla fires. There has been a plethora of Tesla charge connectors that have overheated, melted and burned. Though many Tesla shills will argue that they are not fire. Categorically and scientifically they are often classified as fire. Rapid oxidation or rapid decomposition is often classified as fire. Like the metaphor; where there is smoke, there is fire. A few months ago there was a Tesla related garage fire in California that the fire department ruled that the Tesla charging system was a possible source of the fire. The suspect portion of the Tesla charging system that the fire department in California determined was a possible source of the California garage fire, is also suspected in many other Tesla charger reported cases that Tesla charge connections have overheated, melted and burned. Tesla issued a software 'fix', however Tesla charge connectors have continued to overheat, melt and burn despite the so-called 'fix'. The Tesla model S. still has defects that make it a fire hazard. Tesla charger connections are still overheating, melting and burning. Tesla batteries are poorly located and poorly protected. Tesla is Junk. On 1/9/2014 Elon Musk said that replacement adapters that are part of the recall would be mailed out within two weeks. A month later Tesla customers have still not received the replacement adapters that are part of the Tesla model S. recall. Several people have been injured by faulty Tesla charge connectors. Tesla is big on making promises and hype, but short on delivery. Tesla needs to start making safety a top priority. Tesla needs to stop playing blame games and games with semantics. Tesla needs to stop lying. Tesla needs to be proactive instead of reactive. Tesla is being a follower of technology, rather than a leader. Tesla is a greedy corporation that has a disregard for safety. The Tesla model S. is an E-Pinto.
