man sorry this happened to you. totally sux and in the early morning too when its still dark. thanks for the tip on carrying things for safety. What is your VIN range?

17xx - I’ve seen VIN ranges well above mine and well below mine report this issue. Same with mileage (15K on mine), most were much lower mileage

17xx

Bro, you should put that in the initial post and not waste everybody's time, the issue was fixed 4 months ago.

I wonder why this issue hasn’t become a recall. What’s the difference between a service bulletin and a recall?

Can someone drop the link to where these service bulletins are posted? I have the vin/recall lookup but sounds like i need to be watching these too?

Just took a 1500 mile road trip and was worried about this the whole time. Thankfully, still going strong at 11k miles, 6xxx vin, but this is right about when most people are getting the failure. Thanks OP for the heads-up on night road markers, I always thought limp mode would be available to get home or at least off the road! Really wish there was a known way to induce failure and get this over with...

For curious owners, the inverter is a device that transforms the energy stored in the battery, from direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC) in a structured and controlled way.

My inverter failed and was replaced on October 3rd. Tesla released a service bulletin on October 4th addressing the inverter issue. I made a service appointment on Nov. 18th for a minor issue, and Tesla now added the inverter to be replaced on certain CTs. Since my inverter was just replaced, most likely Tesla will not replace mine, but they'll ensure I have the newest inverter. People who are concerned about their inverter failing before a long road trip, stop by a service center and ask them to run your VIN to see if you have any pending service bulletins for your CT.

twice here for rear. Recall is also for the front inverter which they replaced last week for me.

Wow… SC informed me that mine was replaced with the exact same part -not a newer / revised version ??. So, back on a ticking time bomb… what was your mileage between inverters?

The issue was certain components in the inverter, not the design itself. They know which VINs have which inverters have which MOSFETs.

It’s just interesting that so many folks I know have had the same issue happen over and over again….

Tesla SC said it's happening to most
of the trucks made to date. They do 3 a day at most of Bay Area, CA facilities. I've been in three times. Two for recalls front and rear and one time a failure.

"Most"? As in more than 50% of all Cybertrucks on the road will or have had a hardware failure like this?
