User error or manufacturer defect? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is curious about that, too.
With up to 834 hp and 740 lb-ft of torque on tap, the thought of a stuck, wide-open accelerator pedal in your fresh-off-the-lot Tesla Cybertruck is skin-crawling, to say the least. But that nightmare has become a reality for one Cybertruck owner, coinciding with Tesla reportedly halting deliveries of its polarizing electric pickup over quality issues.
Another Cybertruck owner reportedly experienced a similar issue, claiming on an owner's forum that the truck continued to pick up speed even after they released the accelerator. The author alleged that pressing the brakes did nothing, ultimately hitting a light pole with only 350 miles on the odometer. Such high-profile attention has garnered interest in the issue from the Federal government, specifically from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
