It looks like Tesla is actually complying with the law and the _County_ public health org is contradicting a strategic federal & state order. Specifically they are contradicting the Executive Order Gavin Newsom made which is what empowers and dictates which industries should close and which are strategically required to remain open.
If you look at this executive order which is both empowering the CA shutdown and dictates which industries are required infrastructure and MUST stay open, the rules and regulations to be followed are at the State level, and no additional empowerment to create superseding rules at the city or county level were created:

Relevant part of Executive Order (Bold):
"On March 19, 2020, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-33-20 directing all residents
immediately to heed current State public health directives to stay home, except as needed to maintain
continuity of operations of essential critical infrastructure sectors and additional sectors as the State
Public Health Officer may designate as critical to protect health and well-being of all Californians."
I don't see how Elon Musk is breaking the Executive Order, in fact based on these documents it looks like county officials are overstepping and illegally shutting down something that has been explicitly earmarked as strategically protected, can someone provide additional links or order I may not have been able to find?

Furthermore, the State requirements for critical infrastructure that must remain open included "Workers at transportation manufacturing facilities": https://covid19.ca.gov/img/EssentialCriticalInfrastructureWo...
