Apparently, cracks can form around the brake rotor stud holes, potentially causing the wheel studs to separate from the hub assembly. In simple terms, the wheels may no longer stay properly attached to the truck. Tesla traced the issue back to excessive grease on lug nuts, which may reduce friction and allow movement under stress and vibration. The fix involves replacing the front and rear brake rotors, wheel hubs, and lug nuts at no cost to owners.

The good news is that no crashes, injuries, or deaths related to this defect have been reported so far. The slightly less comforting news is that this is already the Cybertruck’s 11th recall in less than two years.
The Cybertruck recall list is starting to read like a meme compilation
At this point, the Cybertruck’s recall history has become almost as famous as the truck itself. Previous recalls have involved accelerator pedals getting stuck, stainless steel trim panels flying off, windshield wipers failing, inverter faults causing power loss, delayed rear camera feeds, and even warning text that was apparently too small to read properly.

And that is what makes this latest issue feel especially surreal. A futuristic electric truck marketed as ultra-durable and apocalypse-ready is now dealing with a recall involving wheels potentially detaching on the road.
