    CT manufacturer flaw - Should I reject it?

    Don't know how large it is but it looks as if it could be cut on this line and might not be noticeable

    Cleaning / Treating Hub Cap Rust?

    Phosphoric acid will dissolve light rust and passivate the surface by turning it into iron phosphate. You can buy it cheap at most hardware stores, brush or spray it on, let it sit, repeat if needed, then wipe off the excess while still wet. It will probably leave an uneven colored surface so...

    Reuters: Tesla has cancelled the "Model 2" [Update: Denied by Elon Musk]

    Franz says "don't always believe what you read" in regards to Model 2 cancellation

    Brake Malfunction; hit light pole

    Which fits with what the OP described. So either that's exactly what happened or he just imagined the loss of regen and brake boost, which seems unlikely and almost impossible.

    You mean something other than a poop emoji when media asks for comments? Yes that might be helpful.

    Reuters: Tesla has cancelled the "Model 2" [Update: Denied by Elon Musk]

    Which is completely different than believing it's anywhere near robotaxi level now or in the near term. That means the robotaxi unveil in August is very premature and another product introduced long before it's ready, just like the original FSD, the Cybertruck, and the next gen Roadster...

    Why so much negative Cybertruck posts & news today?

    I didn't say other builds were flawless I said the failure rates of vehicles just dying on the road soon after delivery seems higher. How many of your Tesla's died on the road within a few weeks of delivery?

    Reuters: Tesla has cancelled the "Model 2" [Update: Denied by Elon Musk]

    That experience didn't help them figure out the obvious fact that the Cybertruck needs a washer on the rear camera even with a human driving since the rear view mirror is useless with the bed cover down. Also, today my Model 3 FSD decided a county road with no speed limit sign, (which in NY...

    Brake Malfunction; hit light pole

    But the claim being made by some is that was the intention. Of course media will create FUD where ever they can, that's not even a question.

    Unless a camera has water, snow, or dirt on it. You are telling a story, it may not be the story.

    Reuters: Tesla has cancelled the "Model 2" [Update: Denied by Elon Musk]

    I just hope they aren't prioritizing the Robotaxi over M2, which this announcement seems to imply. A drop of water on the backup cam gives me warnings that FSD may not work properly. I don't see how they have the hardware in any vehicle to do a fully autonomous robotaxi that won't get stranded...

    Brake Malfunction; hit light pole

    Yeah even Jalopnik and Electrek aren't exactly widely read but even if they were the idea of buying a Cybertruck and crashing it into a pole on purpose is beyond ridiculous.

    Brake Malfunction; hit light pole

    So lets see, your premise is he bought a Cybertruck, crashed it, posted pictures here on this forum that few people even know about, to slow EV adoption? Really?

    Brake Malfunction; hit light pole

    In the moment when expecting full brake response and not getting it I think that could feel "soft".

    Brake Malfunction; hit light pole

    Except that's not what he described: He didn't say the car accelerated when he hit the brake, which is what would have happened if he actually hit the accelerator. What he subsequently described was increased brake pedal effort with weak braking response, which is exactly what would happen if...

    Reuters: Tesla has cancelled the "Model 2" [Update: Denied by Elon Musk]

    Actually first line of the first post in this thread which I edited 30 minutes after posting it. It seems some people must read only the post title and then comment without reading any of the other comments.

    Brake Malfunction; hit light pole

    I got used to it fairly quickly and don't have an issue switching between my Tacoma and my 3.

    Why so much negative Cybertruck posts & news today?

    Or it's actually failing at a higher rate. I've been following Tesla since the Roadster days and I don't remember ever hearing this many issues with the vehicle just dying soon after delivery. I'd expect after all this time Tesla would have the basics well under control even in a new vehicle.

    I like their finance page interface, and it was a Reuters article.
