Summary

Tesla has been quietly replacing battery packs in Cybertrucks due to issues with “side-dented cells” causing potential battery core collapse.

Reports date back to September 2024, with owners learning of battery replacements during unrelated service visits.

Tesla describes the replacements as proactive but has not issued an official recall, raising questions about transparency and regulatory compliance.

Critics suggest Tesla’s approach avoids negative press and high costs.

Concerns persist about the scope of the issue, potential safety risks, and Tesla’s lack of formal communication with owners or regulatory bodies.

    As musk commented, you don’t have to worry about those fires as cyber truck will direct them upwards.

      With you inside.

      And apparently, Kekius Maximus is the only one to be able to open the doors.
