Accelerator Pedal Cover Recall Detail

[Weoo Huh]

Wonder how long this would take to remediate this. They said deliveries will continue after 4/20...but lets see..

To me it looks like it's gonna take a redesign of the gas pedal to fix. What are they gonna do, put some double sided sticky tape on it and call it a day?

After thinking about this some more, I’m not sure this is the issue. Communication didn’t come from Tesla, and our information is just from people online playing with their accelerator pedals.

Exactly! I wish more people would use their heads.

This will end up being a big nothing-burger!

There are probably 1000 Cybertrucks in containment hold. Does that sound like a nothing burger?

Wouldn't be surprised if the floor map unclicked the pedal.

Delivery team told me that there was no part replacement necessary. All trucks had to go through a visual inspection before being cleared for pick up.

2 week hold sounds excessive for just a visual inspection.

My understanding is they were waiting on instructions from HQ on inspection procedures + remedy

Yep. It's still early in the quarter, so a big nothingburger.

Looking at the design of the accelerator pedal on my Cybertruck, I'm guessing it's probably as simple as making sure the pedal cover was fully inserted. The delivery hold is probably only for the duration of time that Tesla needs to study the issue and conclude the best course of action.

My CT arrived yesterday so I stopped by my local service center to check it out. I talked to 2 people in service and the manager in sales. They truly didn’t know there was a delivery halt. They looked at my order and said that it just needs to be inspected and cleaned.

Just checked mine and yep it's secured tight with no give or play. Vin in the mid 3000s

Who on the delivery team? Like a PG employee or an advisor on the phone located somewhere else?

I popped mine off without trouble. Only held on there by two plastic clips. For now, I’ll just drive without the cover.

Very sad, spend $99k for a vehicle that is to last the apocalypse million miles 20-50 years.

2x $1 clips. ????
