The first Cybertruck was built on the production line at Gigafactory Texas in July 2023. Production Cybertrucks rolled off the line starting in late November 2023. As of January 2024, the Cybertruck is sold out until 2027 for customers placing new reservations.
Tesla announced it would recall all its Cybertrucks after five months on the market, nearly 4,000 in total. The Cybertruck is being recalled due to a faulty accelerator pedal that can increase the risk of accidents, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
When high force is applied to the pad on the accelerator pedal, the pad may dislodge, or come loose, causing the pedal to become trapped in the interior trim, the NHTSA report said. Tesla stated the company was unaware of any accidents being caused by the defective pedal
The recall includes the pickups that were manufactured from Nov. 13, 2023, to April 18, 2024. Tesla will replace or rework the accelerator pedal at no charge to the customer.
Potential Number of Units Affected: 3,678
