Tesla Cybertruck's Stuck Accelerator Pedal Creates 6,800-Pound Land Missile


Deliveries of the Tesla Cybertruck have reportedly been halted after an owner found that the accelerator pedal cover could slip off and floor the truck.

From incorrectly installed door latches to awful panel gaps, and plenty of reports of loss of power, critics are rightfully slamming the brand for its quality control. This remains officially unconfirmed, though popular Tesla proponent Omar Qazi, aka WholeMarsCatalog, posted X that deliveries have been halted due to " an issue with the accelerator pedal." Though many of those claims were overblown and the issue was often due to misuse and improper floor mat placement, the incident was a crushing blow to Toyota's reputation and bottom line for several years.
