Over the weekend, dozens of waiting customers reported that their impending deliveries had been canceled due to “an unexpected delay regarding the preparation of your vehicle.”
But in 2023, a safety researcher in Minnesota published a white paper with a potential mechanism, showing how a voltage spike in Tesla’s inverter could cause a car to experience an acceleration event.
That same year, a leaked trove of Tesla documents to the German publication Handelsblatt included more than 2,400 customer complaints alleging sudden unintended brake problems.
This time, the potential culprit might be a lot easier to identify than a defective inverter experiencing a random voltage spike.
Yesterday, a Cybertruck owner on TikTok posted a video showing how the metal cover of his accelerator pedal allegedly worked itself partially loose and became jammed underneath part of the dash.
Lending this theory credence, Whole Mars Blog, a social media account with close links to the automaker, stated on Saturday that “Tesla has stopped all Cybertruck deliveries for 7 days due to an issue with the accelerator pedal.”
