Summary
Tesla has been quietly replacing battery packs in Cybertrucks due to issues with “side-dented cells” causing potential battery core collapse.
Reports date back to September 2024, with owners learning of battery replacements during unrelated service visits.
Tesla describes the replacements as proactive but has not issued an official recall, raising questions about transparency and regulatory compliance.
Critics suggest Tesla’s approach avoids negative press and high costs.
Concerns persist about the scope of the issue, potential safety risks, and Tesla’s lack of formal communication with owners or regulatory bodies.

Interesting that this comes to light after what happened in Las Vegas…
Only a few weeks of stalling to go until they can definitively announce that there are no problems with cybertrucks, the patriotic car exploded due to terrorism, and BYD was the responsible party so EV tariffs are getting doubled.
As musk commented, you don’t have to worry about those fires as cyber truck will direct them upwards.
And lock the doors.
With you inside.
And apparently, Kekius Maximus is the only one to be able to open the doors.
If he had known before, he probably wouldn’t have stored camp fuel and fireworks.
Bet you president musk will make recalls optional to arbitration. “You can spend millions on a recall, or just hundreds of thousands on quietly paying off your vict, er, customers”
