Tesla’s Cybertruck is in the news once again, and once again it isn’t for a good reason. One owner of the controversial vehicle reported that Tesla’s technicians told them to use duct tape to fix a problem with their vehicle.
The owner took their Cybertruck to a Tesla service center because they were hearing a loud wind noise while driving it. A number of other owners have also complained about hearing such a noise, particularly when driving at higher speeds. The technician at the service center determined that other trucks with similar VINs were experiencing the same issue.
The problem is due to the panel gaps on the vehicle, but the technician’s report said that due to the body fitment specifications for the vehicle, it wouldn’t be possible to make any further panel adjustments. They therefore recommended fixing it by putting duct tape over the gaps. While it does help reduce the sound, it’s hardly a proper repair and affected owners are less than thrilled about it.
