Summary

Tesla is recalling over 46,000 Cybertrucks in the U.S. due to a defect causing exterior trim panels to detach while driving, posing a crash risk.

The recall affects nearly all Cybertrucks produced from November 2023 to February 2024. Tesla will replace the faulty rail panel assembly.

While no injuries have been reported, the company has received 151 warranty claims.

The recall adds to Tesla’s challenges amid falling stock prices and backlash over CEO Elon Musk’s political involvement. Tesla shares fell 1.4% after the news.
