NHTSA Owner Complaint Log
This page lists owner-reported complaints filed with NHTSA for the 2026 Tesla Cybertruck. Complaints are unverified consumer reports submitted to NHTSA and do not by themselves prove a defect or defect rate.
Passenger door controller began malfunctioning on day 1 of delivery (03/08/2026) By day 2 (03/09/2026) the controller failed completely. When it failed, the window lowered (indexed), and the vehicle erroneously detects the door as being open all the time. The vehicle will not engage in FSD. As a result, the vehicle will not lock. The vehicle incorrectly assumes it is still in use when parked (forces ventilation and entertainment system to remain on). Requesting the issue correct yielded a service appointment of 03/24/2026. Subsequent attempts to treat this as a safety issue and asked for a sooner appointment did not yield a positive response.
