Tesla faces major Cybertruck issues as glued parts detach
Tesla has halted all Cybertruck deliveries. Reports indicate that key parts of the vehicle, held by glue, are falling off.
The Cybertruck has faced intense scrutiny since its release.
Critics have pointed out numerous flaws, while some owners remain loyal to its economic benefits. However, the latest issue may be the most damaging yet.
Cybertruck panels and trim are peeling off
Cybertruck owners report that parts of the vehicle are detaching, despite being marketed as nearly indestructible
As reported by the Telegraph, trim and panels have been “flying off” the supposedly bulletproof truck.
While, the cantrail, a panel along the edge of the roof, has been especially problematic.
This isn’t Tesla’s first issue with glued components. The company previously recalled vehicles due to exterior panels detaching. However, the scale of this new defect has forced Tesla to take drastic action.
Tesla recalls Cybertruck and halts new deliveries
Previously, Elon Musk has reportedly ordered a pause on Cybertruck deliveries.
Posts on X and the Cybertruck Owners Club suggest that Tesla is addressing the issue at its factories. Reuters confirms that most existing Cybertrucks have been recalled for repairs.
The decision is practical but embarrassing for Tesla. The Cybertruck was marketed as a rugged, durable vehicle. Now, basic assembly issues are raising concerns about its overall quality.
Additionally, Tesla also struggled as stock value plummets.
This problem comes at a tough time for Tesla.
The company has lost significant value in recent months. Its stock price has nearly halved since mid-December. In total, Tesla has lost approximately $633 billion in market value.
Several factors have contributed to Tesla’s downturn. The company has faced declining sales and controversy surrounding Musk himself.
Even political shifts, including Donald Trump’s return to office, have impacted Tesla’s standing in the market.
Is the Cybertruck Tesla’s biggest failure?
Tesla’s future remains uncertain. Some industry experts believe the Cybertruck was doomed from the start.
A viral post on X called it the “biggest flop in the auto industry since the Pontiac Aztek.” Many users in the replies argued that the Aztek was a better, safer vehicle.
One person said: Should have used the glue old Donny keeps his hair on with!
A second wrote: sound like WAL_MART shoes nothing but glued
While a third commented: Tesla remains my favorite car among those I own. Don’t worry, bro, my Tesla is good.
Another joked: American quality production
Someone else said:Must of been cheap glue.
Another user added: OMG, my car’s trim and panels have been ‘flying off,’ and I tried to complain to Tesla, but no response yet.
This is Musk’s failure. Someone said.
With deliveries paused and recalls underway, Tesla faces an uphill battle. Whether the Cybertruck can recover from this disaster remains to be seen.
