Tesla has issued a recall for 46,096 Cybertrucks from model years 2024-2025 due to a critical safety defect in the cant rail assembly. The recall affects nearly all units delivered since November 2023.

The defective cant rail panels, which run along the windshield and roof, can detach while driving, creating road hazards and increasing collision risks. The issue stems from insufficient structural adhesive that fails to withstand environmental stress.

Key Points for Owners:

• Free replacement of cant rail panels
• Notification letters begin May 19, 2025
• Avoid high-speed driving until repairs are completed
• Contact Tesla: 1-877-798-3752
• Visit nhtsa.gov for updates

• Sticking acceleration pedal (April 2024)
• Windshield wiper issues

• Improper lighting

Tesla has already developed an improved adhesive compound and reinforcement method to address the issue. While no injuries have been reported, the NHTSA emphasizes the importance of immediate repair to prevent potential accidents.

The recall has impacted Tesla's market performance, with shares dropping 42% in 2025. The company faces additional challenges from increasing competition in the global EV market and recent incidents of vandalism at Tesla facilities.

Owners should wait for official notification and follow Tesla's repair instructions to ensure their vehicle's safety. The company will handle all repairs at no cost to customers.
