I used to quite admire Leon, but it’s become painfully apparent in recent years that his successes have largely been down to other people around him.

Tye cyber truck? More like the fail truck what a silly product. And they cannot sell anywhere but the US because it violates all known traffic rules outside the US.

It seems You can get it at México, like there are two people that owns one here.



It's a waste of money at this moment, I would like to know which grade of stanley steel they used because soon or later rust Will appear. Must have somekind of coat

Usually, recalls are for matters of "just in case." This is a very, very serious issue that should not have been overlooked, in my opinion.
You don't know what you're talking about. Even Toyota had to recall cars due to serious safety risks.

I’ve never seen anything positive about the Cybertruck.

Looks like something a kid with limited grey Legos designed.

The Cybertruck hasn't looked any less embarrassing from when it was first shown. This shit still looks like a Star Fox 1 boss.

Its different, look at the latest BMW 6000 car recall, all from 2014-2015.

"problem stems from the potential failure of the weld joint on the head airbag inflator. This defect might cause the inflator to leak gas or, in more severe cases, rupture. Such failures could lead to incomplete airbag deployment in the event of a crash or result in sharp metal fragments being propelled into the passenger compartment,"

After ten years it was discovered a weld spot could potentially fail, and potentially maybe be dangerous. The Cybertruck has a day one, openly visible, design flaw any competent automotive engineer or QA person would spot. This car will get hardware recalls on a yearly basis.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Another Tesla recall, this time effecting 700K vehicles.


Tesla has issued a recall for nearly 700,000 vehicles due to a tire pressure light issue.

The electric car company is recalling certain 2024 Cybertruck, 2017-2025 Model 3 and 2020-2025 Model Y vehicles because the tire pressure monitoring system warning light “may not remain illuminated between drive cycles, failing to warn the driver of low tire pressure,” the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Thursday.

The NHTSA released their safety recall report on Tuesday, noting that “driving with improperly inflated tires increases the risk of a crash.”

The recall affects around 694,000 vehicles.

Tesla said as a remedy it released an over-the-air software update free of charge.
