I rarely use the brake pedal, but I noticed the brake dust on my rear wheels is terrible. Is this how it is on all cybertrucks?

I have the same issue. If you resolved this, please post an update. I’ll end up at the service center soon to try and get figured out.

Are you sure that it brake dust and not something else?

One pedal mode? Jumping on the brakes at the last minute?

Have the same issue. I rarely use the brakes. Rear wheels both get super dirty.

No, I rarely ever use the brakes, and on most all vehicles, the front wheels would absorb most of the braking force and likely also show brake dust. IM up to 3K miles on the truck, and it is still occurring. I just got the email to get the wheel covers installed, so when I get that appointment, I'll ask to add them to look at the issue and try to confirm what it is and if a fix exists yet.

Noticed the same on my truck. Have completed multiple drives without touching the brakes (regen only) and the rear wheels look identical to the pictures here. 3k on the truck and it seems to be improving.

I just rotated my tires and the wheels that were moved to the back are getting covered with brake dust.

I'm interested to find out what this is since the brakes are not/hardly used. Anyone contact the SC about this? I haven't seen this issue on my CT, but I also only have 300 miles on it so far.

I brought it in multiple times for the issue and they said it's normal. They don't do anything about it.

I have a lot of brake dust only on the left rear wheel. The other three wheels are clean. I was looking here to see if anyone else had the same problem as me. I got delivery on June 3rd and used the brakes four times and only very lightly. I have $1,760 Mi on it.

My rears get a lot of red brake dust. Front tires are clean. Didn't start until about 3 months into ownership. Do not remember the mileage. 2 different Tesla Service centers said it's normal due to the size of the brakes and them being ceramic. I still do not buy it but what can we do? lol
