Tesla has been forced to halt deliveries and recall all Cybertruck vehicles after a viral video emerged showing a potential issue with the accelerator pedal. The video, filmed at a Tesla event in California, captured the moment when a rivet was being installed to secure the pedal pad.
The process was demonstrated at the “Cyber Takeover” event in Long Beach, with attendees witnessing the drilling and rivet installation process first-hand. Following the release of the video, Tesla issued a Service Bulletin outlining the required steps for fixing the issue.
According to the bulletin, Tesla technicians are required to measure the distance between the pedal pad and the pedal itself. If the distance is found to be 5mm or further, the entire pedal assembly must be replaced. This precaution is being taken to ensure the safety of all Cybertruck owners and prevent any potential accidents or malfunctions.
This recall comes as a blow to Tesla, which has been receiving widespread acclaim for its innovative electric vehicles. The Cybertruck, with its futuristic design and impressive specs, has been highly anticipated by consumers. However, safety is paramount, and Tesla is taking the necessary steps to address this issue promptly.
Owners of Cybertruck vehicles are being urged to contact Tesla immediately to arrange for the necessary repairs. Those who have not yet taken delivery of their vehicles will have to wait until the issue is resolved before receiving their Cybertruck. Tesla has assured customers that they are working diligently to rectify the situation and ensure the safety of all drivers.
