Tesla is recalling 11,000 Cybertrucks for the fourth time, focusing on issues with loose trim and malfunctioning windshield wipers.
11,000 Cybertrucks Affected
For the fourth time in the United States, Tesla is recalling its futuristic new Cybertruck pickup in order to address issues with trim elements that have the potential to become loose and front windshield wipers that have the tendency to function improperly.
The Associated Press reports that since it was first made available for purchase on November 30, Tesla has issued four recalls for the Cybertruck.
More than 11,000 trucks are affected by each of the latest recalls, which were reported in documents issued Tuesday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Critical Safety Concerns
In the docs, the company states that the front windshield wiper motor controller may become inoperable if it is subjected to an excessive amount of electrical current. Failure of a windshield wiper can reduce visibility, which in turn raises the danger of an accident.
According to the Austin, Texas-based company, it is not aware of any accidents or injuries that have been caused by the issue.
The windshield wiper motor will be replaced by Tesla at no additional cost to the owners, who will be notified by letter on August 18.
The second recall concerns a potential safety issue where a piece of trim along the truck bed could become detached and fly off, endangering other drivers.
Tesla's Response and Actions
Based on the documents provided by Tesla, the trim piece is attached to the vehicle using adhesive; nevertheless, it is possible that this was not done correctly at production.
The trim piece will either be replaced or reworked by the manufacturer in order to ensure that it remains in place.
This problem has been confirmed by the company for all Cybertrucks manufactured after June 6, 2024, which amounts to 11,688 vehicles, per Electrek.
According to Tesla, the problem was identified through collaboration "with the Tier 1 (Valeo) and Tier 2 (USI) suppliers," and the company will be replacing the motor that controls the windshield wipers on the Cybertrucks.
