Tesla Recalling All Cybertrucks - Dismas - 04-20-2024
Tesla recalled all their cybertrucks, due to issues with accelerators getting stuck.
Quote:Tesla is recalling the new Cybertruck to fix a defective pedal pad that could cause accelerator pedals to get stuck in the depressed position, raising the risk of a crash.
Specifically, when someone stomps on the accelerator, the pad can come off and get trapped in a bit of trim.
That would leave the accelerator stuck in the "on" position — something that has happened at least twice. When a driver hits the brake pedal, the truck will stop even if the accelerator is depressed. No injuries or crashes have been reported.
The problem, as Tesla reported to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration, originated on production lines with soap.
"An unapproved change introduced lubricant (soap) to aid in the component assembly," the report says.
Evidently, workers used soap to help get the pad into place on the pedal. Traces of that slippery soap remained, hence the problem.

Is there anybody who actually drives and likes one of these?
They are not particularly pretty and, that's the deal breaker for me, extremely expensive - besides the fact that it is electric.

I don't know anyone who rides it, so I don't know if it's worth it.
