I have a foundation series cyber beast, and I've had it for about a year with around 12,000 mi. I love the truck.

About a week ago, I started to hear a new noise which appears to come from under the backseat, passenger side. I am guessing that This is the third motor. The sound is an irregular pattern, and is quite noticeable whenever I get into the truck. It sounds like a big fly up against a window buzzing against the glass to try to get out. They are in short bursts, maybe 1 to 2 seconds each and intermittent. The noise seems to go away after driving for a while, but starts back as soon as you re-enter.


You can hear the noise at 0:11 cybertruck noise


I've had Teslas for over 6 years now and I know occasionally little sounds happen, and sometimes go away with updates, I also have no messages of any failures or cautions.

Anyone experience anything like this? My concern is that maybe something is starting to fail with that third motor

sounds like an actuator that's struggling, maybe? either way, sounds abnormal. definitely schedule an appt.
