Tesla has confirmed a serious problem with its Cybertruck model, recalling all 3,878 vehicles delivered so far. The issue, a faulty accelerator pedal that can become stuck, prompted the recall after two customer complaints in early April.
What to Expect:
- Tesla promises to fix or replace the pedals at no cost to owners.
- Owners will receive letters in June but can contact Tesla support now.
- This recall likely explains recent Cybertruck delivery delays.
The Cybertruck, plagued by delays and missing features, isn’t Tesla’s only headache. The company faces declining sales, layoffs, and executive departures. Plans for a cheaper Model 2 EV are also uncertain following rumors of its cancellation.
This recall adds to the growing list of challenges faced by Tesla. Amidst stiffening competition, the company must address quality issues and deliver on its promises to regain its dominance in the EV market.
