Tesla and accessory maker EVject find common ground
It appears that Tesla and aftermarket accessory maker EVject have come to an agreement. In a recent email reportedly sent by the accessory maker to its customers, EVject stated that it would be recalling its V1.0 and V1.1 Escape Connectors and replacing them with V1.2 connectors, which includes built-in thermal protection.
Tesla filed a lawsuit against EVject over allegations that the company’s product, which allows drivers to disconnect and drive away from a Supercharger without leaving their cabin, was unsafe due to its lack of overtemperature protection. As part of its lawsuit, Tesla looked to ban EVject Escape Connectors from being imported into the United States.
Will investigate

Tesla’s lawsuit received polarizing reactions from EV community members, many of whom urged the company to work with the aftermarket accessory maker since the product serves a vital role in keeping owners feel more secure during Supercharging sessions. Tesla CEO Elon Musk himself addressed the community’s concerns, stating that he would be investigating the matter. Considering EVject’s recent communication to its customers, it would appear that Musk’s investigation has borne fruit.
EVject noted in its communication to its customers that it wants to be “good partners with Tesla.” The accessory maker also noted that it is recalling its V1.0 and V1.1 Escape Connectors. Instead, the company would now be selling its V1.2 Escape Connector, which fully meets Tesla’s standards. The V1.2 connector is expected to start shipping later this year.

Customers who have purchased EVject V1.0 and V1.1 Escape Connectors will be getting a complimentary upgrade to a V1.2 connector. The accessory maker is asking its customers to return their V1.0 and V1.1 connectors, after which they will receive credit to purchase a V1.2 Escape Connector when it becomes available.
Tesla and OEMs will keep working with the industry to provide safe adapters and develop common sense regulatory standards. https://t.co/v1D7QoPMVQ
