Tesla Recalls 46,096 Cybertrucks Over a Stainless Panel That Can Fall Off
- Tesla filed Part 573 recall 25V-170 (Tesla SB-25-10-001) on 18 March 2025, covering 46,096 model-year 2024 and 2025 Cybertrucks built from 13 November 2023 to 27 February 2025 - every Cybertruck delivered in the US[1][3]
- The cant rail, a stainless steel panel bonded with structural adhesive to a steel stamping above the doors, can delaminate and separate from the truck, creating a road hazard for following drivers[1][2]
- Tesla said the adhesive was susceptible to environmental embrittlement; the replacement uses a different adhesive plus a welded stud and nut clamping the panel to the body, fitted free of charge[1]
- The chronology runs from a first field complaint on 7 January 2025 and a NHTSA owner complaint on 21 February to the recall decision on 11 March; Tesla counted 151 related warranty claims and no crashes or injuries[1]
- Electrek reported that Tesla had put a containment hold on Cybertruck deliveries a week before the filing[3]
- Owner letters, planned for 19 May, were mailed on 19 September 2025[1][2]

Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most. A picture that shows something else, or shows it badly, is looked at too, and moved down or replaced.
