Tesla is recalling 2,400 Cybertruck pickups in the U.S. after identifying a potential issue that could lead to a loss of power, heightening crash risks. This marks the sixth recall for the vehicle model this year, underscoring ongoing quality challenges for the electric vehicle (EV) giant.

The recall stems from a faulty driver inverter in vehicles manufactured up until July 30, 2024. This issue could cause the Cybertruck to lose propulsion when the driver presses the accelerator pedal, significantly raising the risk of an accident. Tesla’s filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) stated that it had received five warranty claims related to the problem, but confirmed no crashes or injuries have been reported.

To address the issue, Tesla plans to replace the faulty inverters with an upgraded version, which has already been used in vehicles produced after July 30. The company is expected to begin the replacements on December 9. Tesla also mentioned that while this issue has caused some concern, no serious incidents have been linked to it so far.

This recall follows a series of other issues with the Cybertruck this year. Just last month, the company recalled over 27,000 Cybertrucks due to problems with delayed rear-view camera images, which could obstruct the driver’s view and increase the risk of collisions. Earlier recalls included fixes for loose accelerator pedal pads and faulty windshield wipers.

Despite these setbacks, Tesla’s Cybertruck remains an important product for the company. After a two-year delay, the futuristic vehicle finally hit the market in 2023, following challenges in production and battery supply. With its edgy design and ambitious goals, the Cybertruck is seen as a key player in Tesla’s efforts to regain momentum in an increasingly competitive EV market.
