The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s recall, which covers more than 46,000 Cybertrucks, warned that an exterior panel that runs along the left and right side of the windshield can detach while driving, creating a dangerous road hazard for other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash
Most previous “recalls” were software updates. This is a mechanical connection of a steel strip running along the windshield. It’s a sheet of stainless that can become a sail on the highway and rip itself off of the truck. I personally think a 4’x3" panel of 1/8th inch stainless steel flying at my car while I’m driving 65mph to be a pretty big deal.
So, this is not a speedbump. Furthermore, this highlights all the bullshit cost cutting measures that were placed on the project and most of all shows that Musk actively makes any tech he touches worse.
Edit: I thought this was a recall for the rear quarter panels that have been separating as well.
