Tesla's Cybertruck thwarted by sand, snow, and regulator recalls

Tesla's Cybertruck, initially touted as "apocalypse-proof" by Elon Musk, has faced numerous issues since its debut. The vehicle has been stuck in rough terrains like sand and snow and has been subject to recalls due to critical errors and production flaws. Despite its robust design claims, the truck has also been criticized for quality concerns, such as rust spots and gaps in door panels.

The truck's problems are not solely due to user error; technical and mechanical issues have led to regulatory attention and recalls. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration noted concerns with the truck's accelerator pedal, prompting a significant recall. The Cybertruck's ambitious design and features have also been problematic in scaling production, impacting Tesla's stock value.
