2024 TESLA CYBERTRUCK Complaints

My wireless phone charger is causing my cell phone to heat up. When I pickup the cell phone after being charged is very warm to the touch. I’m concerned that cell phone battery (lithium) is being damaged because based on this charging condition.

I am reporting a critical safety issue with my Tesla Cybertruck (VIN: [XXX] ). On [XXX], at [XXX] MDT, while making a turn at the corner of [XXX] , the vehicle, operating in Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode, unexpectedly veered into the oncoming traffic lane. No error messages were displayed, and this behavior poses a significant safety risk. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

On May 15, 2025, at around 11:30 AM, my Tesla was involved in a collision while Full Self-Driving (FSD) was engaged. The incident occurred at the Tesla West Covina Dealership. The vehicle struck a barrier wall without any collision warning, suggesting both a failure of the sensors and FSD system. After the incident, Tesla staff directed me to their West Covina Service Center. A service advisor reviewed the dashcam footage with me and acknowledged the crash appeared to result from FSD malfunction. I was told Tesla will cover the repair. However, when I returned on May 26, 2025, I was informed that the dashcam footage was no longer available. I did not delete it and suspect it may have been removed by Tesla personnel. They also then claimed they will not cover any repairs. I have written to their legal department to formally request the video footage and any other data they have regarding the crash. Despite follow-up, Tesla has not responded or released any data. I am reporting this as a possible safety defect and mishandling of evidence. I request NHTSA investigate: The failure of Tesla’s FSD and collision avoidance system. The disappearance of crash footage after review by Tesla staff. Tesla’s lack of response to requests for data and documentation. Thank you for your attention.

I am leasing a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck and have experienced multiple serious and unresolved safety issues. When driving at speeds of 50–60 mph or higher, the Cybertruck begins to shake aggressively, particularly in the front wheels. The vibration makes it difficult to maintain control. I took it to the Tesla dealership, and service staff confirmed there is a known malfunction with the Cybertruck tires. They informed me they are waiting on new tires to arrive, but offered no timeline and sent me home with the issue unresolved. No loaner vehicle was offered, no workaround was provided, and I am still driving a vehicle Tesla knows is defective. In addition, the rear windows malfunction frequently. When I close the rear doors, the windows often jam or freeze. This concerns me because the Cybertruck is built entirely with electronic door systems—there are no manual overrides. If power is lost during a crash, occupants may not be able to exit. This is even more alarming in light of recent reports of Cybertruck-related deaths. Multiple individuals have died in crashes where the battery was damaged or the vehicle caught fire. Power loss caused the doors and windows to become non-functional, and due to Tesla’s armored glass, bystanders couldn’t break the windows to rescue the victims. These people burned alive while trapped inside. This is not a theoretical issue—it has happened. Despite these risks, Tesla has not issued a recall or urgent fix. I’ve made multiple efforts to resolve these problems, but Tesla’s delays, denials, and lack of proactive safety measures are deeply negligent. This is a dangerous vehicle, and I am requesting that NHTSA immediately investigate both the front-end tire instability and the entrapment risk caused by electric-only doors and unbreakable windows. I no longer feel safe driving this Cybertruck and believe others are also at serious risk.

The contact owns a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V170000 (STRUCTURE); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted, and it was confirmed that the part was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

I am filing this complaint regarding Tesla's failure to include the advertised Autosteer feature in my new Cybertruck, which I believe raises serious safety concerns. At the time I ordered my vehicle, Tesla's website and the official Cybertruck Owner’s Manual (archived October 15, 2024) clearly listed Autosteer as a feature included with Autopilot. Tesla also markets Autopilot as a system that “enhances safety and convenience,” which formed a core part of my purchasing decision. I previously owned both a Model 3 and Model Y, both of which had Autosteer included in the base Autopilot, reinforcing that expectation. Upon delivery of my Cybertruck, I learned that Autosteer was not actually included, and Tesla now requires customers to pay for Full Self-Driving (Supervised) to access this core safety function. This change was not communicated prior to purchase or delivery and contradicts both historical Tesla offerings and the documentation available at the time of sale. Tesla’s decision to restrict a safety-related feature—one that assists with lane keeping and crash avoidance—may put my family and others at greater risk. Drivers may assume Autosteer is included based on Tesla’s marketing, which could lead to misuse or over-reliance on the limited Base Autopilot. I contacted Tesla directly and requested a resolution. Despite multiple follow-ups, I received no meaningful response. I believe this matter represents a pattern of deceptive practices and raises legitimate safety concerns regarding what features are expected and what is actually delivered. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate Tesla’s removal of Autosteer from Base Autopilot and its potential implications for consumer safety and transparency in driver-assistance system advertising.

While vehicle was in full self driving supervised mode, it made an illegal u turn from a traffic light crossing into oncoming traffic. I have the video taken by the vehicle. I am unable to upload it.
