Tesla Cybertruck Owner Faces Two-Week Repair Ordeal
A Tesla Cybertruck owner recently endured a frustrating two-week wait for repairs at a Tesla collision shop, shedding light on the challenges faced by some electric vehicle enthusiasts. The owner, known as “Tryangle” on social media platform X, shared his experience, which included a bumper sticker reading, “I bought this after I knew Elon was awesome,” contrasting with more common stickers expressing buyer’s remorse.
The incident unfolded at what Tryangle dubbed the “Boulevard of Broken Teslas,” where his Cybertruck’s steel body was partially stripped, revealing its white exoskeleton. Despite the vehicle being drivable, it remained in the shop for over ten days without clear repair timelines. Tryangle expressed frustration, feeling his truck was “being held hostage” due to a lack of available parts and completion estimates.
This situation highlights a broader issue among Tesla followers who often endure challenges to maintain their connection to the brand. The Cybertruck, known for its high cost and advertised invincibility, has presented service difficulties and safety concerns for some owners. However, many remain unfazed by these issues, prioritizing their allegiance to Elon Musk and the Tesla brand.
After the prolonged wait, Tryangle’s Cybertruck was eventually repaired and returned, leading to his elation. He expressed immense satisfaction with the vehicle, comparing its worth to significant life events.
This incident comes amidst other reported Cybertruck issues, including warnings about exposure to magnets. As Tesla continues to navigate the complexities of electric vehicle production and maintenance, the loyalty of its customer base remains a notable factor in the company’s ongoing success.
