The trim uses an adhesive to adhere to the truck frame, and some models have had the adhesive installed incorrectly. The result is that a piece of decoration can become loose or even fall off over time, causing a road hazard for other drivers.

Cybertruck owners were asked to bring their trucks to the dealership to fix the problem. The repair involved replacing any missing trim pieces, using an adhesion booster to strengthen the existing adhesion, and using pressure-sensitive tape to hold the piece down.

An inverter fault may cause loss of motor power

Call date: November 5, 2024
Damaged vehicles: 2,431
component: Electrical system

This was Tesla’s second recall affecting the Cybertruck’s electrical system. This is caused by a defect in metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors, also known as MOSFETs and common in modern vehicles. A few Cybertrucks had defective versions of these transistors in the motor inverter, which could cause the inverter to fail. The failure causes the trucks to stop producing torque and thus simply stop moving. The NHTSA investigation noted that there were no warning signs before failure, so stalling could occur at any time.

The repair requires Tesla Cybertruck owners to go to the dealership where they had the inverter replaced free of charge. Affected vehicles were manufactured between November 6, 2023 and July 30, 2024.
