Follow This is the 11th Cybertruck recall so far, following issues with the vehicle’s accelerator, trim, inverter, reverse cameras, and even font size. Tesla released its RWD Cybertruck model last April, but discontinued it just months later. It launched an even cheaper $60,000 dual-motor AWD Cybertruck variant in February of this year, which isn’t affected by this recall.
“On affected vehicles, higher severity road perturbations and cornering may strain the stud hole in the wheel rotor, causing cracks to form,” according to Tesla. “If cracking propagates with continued use and strain, the wheel stud could eventually separate from the wheel hub.” Tesla says it will remove and replace the front and rear brake rotors, hubs, and lug nuts free of charge.
