My FS CT was delivered last month and what a ball that was. My wife liked it so much that she pretty much took it over and sent me back to our black Model X Ludicrous which is certainly a fine ride, but no CT. We went to put her Sequoia out for sale and while I was prepping it I heard an awful sound like someone ripping the right quarter panel off of a new CyberTruck. My dear wife came running up to where I was standing and exclaimed the sound I heard was indeed that of a CyberTruck coming apart. Mine to be specific. Without getting into further details (no I didn't get mad at her), how long should this take to repair ?

Is there other body damage outside the wheel well trim?
Yes. Frunk will require replacement. There was clear fluid dripping under the vehicle. Certainly the RF quarter panel will have to be replaced. Who knows what else they will find. I just hope it rolls straight when they finish.

Based on flat tire, I'd worry about suspension damage.

No matter the repair cost, WIVES ARE ALWAYS MORE EXPENSIVE.
Hey that's for sure. She's a blank check full-blown "10" so I'm just glad she didn't scrape herself. But damn I wait years for that CT Lol.

Will @Tsla pick up on that or will I have to figure it out when they bring it back to me ? They returned my MX to me with a suspension problem once after I had it serviced for same.

I drove my Jeep over my wife's Audi... in our garage. The Jeep had only a barely visible dent in plastic-wrapped metal front bumper. The Audi looked like a predator had taken a chunk out of it. I had to buy my way out of the dog house by getting her a new Lexus RX 350h:LOL:

To the OP, @GS280Pilot, book a service visit no matter what! Multiple YouTube videos expose that the Cybertruck exoskeleton hides the underlying damage from even minor accidents

It went to @Tsla on a flatbed. Definitely not roadable.

Luckily cyber trucks don’t get body work they just get the panels replaced so it’s just a matter of having the parts and exchanging them rather then waiting for paint and other stuff. That’s if you got lucky and didn’t damage any other stuff we can’t see. If it’s cosmetic I bet they could do it in a day or 2

sorry to hear about the misfortune, but a true test of a man is how he responds to adverse situations; sounds like you passed this one with flying colors.

best of luck to you on the repair.

It should be fine. This truck is tough and nails, pretty much indestructible. I’d worry more about the property sending you a bill for damaging their light pole.
