Tesla Halts Cybertruck Deliveries Over Safety Concerns
Tesla suspends Cybertruck deliveries after reports of trim panels detaching during use, raising safety and quality control issues.
- Tesla has paused Cybertruck deliveries due to reports of trim panels, including the cantrail trim, detaching while driving, posing safety hazards.
- The issue appears linked to adhesive failures, particularly in cold weather, with some owners reporting incidents of panels flying off at highway speeds.
- The Cybertruck has faced at least seven recalls since its 2023 launch, addressing issues like stuck accelerator pedals, faulty windshield wipers, and rearview display problems.
- Tesla has not publicly commented on the current delivery hold, but reports indicate that affected vehicles are undergoing additional inspections.
- The Cybertruck's build quality and design, along with Elon Musk's controversial public image, have contributed to declining sales and Tesla's recent stock price drop.
