Model Year 2024 Cybertrucks: Failure to Operate Brake Override and Pedestrian Delayed Decays

The recall impacts “all Model Year (‘MY’) 2024 Cybertruck vehicles manufactured from November 13, 2023, to April 4, 2024,” with the fault estimated to be present in 100 percent of the total 3,878 vehicles. This is essentially every Cybertruck delivered to customers since its launch event last year.

The NHTSA stated on Wednesday that the defect can result in the pedal pad dislodging and being trapped in the interior trim when high force is applied.

Not every driver will be level-headed enough to use the brake override when the vehicle suddenly starts going full speed, even if it is available.
