Tesla has issued a recall for effectively every Cybertruck it’s delivered to customers due to a fault that’s causing the vehicle’s accelerator pedal to get stuck. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration on Wednesday, the defect can result in the pedal pad dislodging and becoming trapped in the vehicle’s interior trim when “high force is applied.
The issue was also highlighted by another Cybertruck owner on TikTok, showing how the fault “held the accelerator down 100 percent, full throttle.” The timeline reported in the NHTSA filing says that Tesla was first notified of the defective accelerator pedals on March 31st, followed by a second report on April 3rd. The company completed internal assessments to find the cause on April 12th before voluntarily issuing a recall.
