Tesla recalls all 3,878 Cybertrucks over faulty accelerator pedal

Tesla has issued a recall for effectively every Cybertruck it’s delivered to customers due to a fault that’s pinning down the vehicle’s accelerator pedals.

Those are some real bad sales figures in a country absolutely obsessed with buying expensive and impractical trucks.

One thing I dislike about Mastodon is how it is absolutely no different than Twitter, Reddit, etc.: Clickbait articles like this are more fuel on the Tesla bonfire, attracting drive-by potshots by ignorant whiners gloating over a tiny stupid recall about a plastic cover on an accelerator pedal of a brand-new vehicle that is nowhere near normal factory production levels yet. And yet utter silence from them about the MILLIONS of new vehicles that still have exhaust pipes in the 2020s.

But will they give them all a wash and a polish while they’re in for the pedal replacement?
