Tesla’s long-delayed — and pricey — Cybertrucks are getting panned by furious owners for malfunctioning at an alarming rate just months after Elon Musk’s futuristic vehicle hit the road.

Tesla’s pricey Cybertrucks were ‘rushed out’ and now malfunctioning at astounding rate: 'Great for five minutes'

In a thread titled “Worst delivery in my life ,” a Southern California-based owner wrote that after taking his truck for a spin the same day it was delivered last month, the vehicle “made it 1 mile down road, started getting steering error, flashing red screen, pulled off side of highway now the truck is dead and I’m waiting for a tow truck.”

Another user on the thread shared a photo of their Cybertruck flashing a red screen that warned, “Pull over safely. Critical steering issue detected.”A separate thread featured a “WTF moment” in which the owner said his Cybertruck’s auto-pilot feature seemingly malfunctioned as another truck approached in the other lane while both were driving on a highway.

On another discussion board, Tesla Motors Club, a Cybertruck owner wrote a review so critical of Tesla’s supposedly highest-tech vehicle that the user was barred from the Cybertruck Owners’ Forum. During the test drive, JPinaJeep asked “what the heck happened” to the suspension. “It doesn’t take bumps or potholes well. It is atrociously bad.”

Tesla’s website, meanwhile, touts that the Cyberbeast’s cool $99,990 price tag comes with a futuristic exterior design — which other Owners Club forums have complained quickly developed “corrosion” and “orange rust marks.”
