Exactly how I feel. Any impact capable of breaking the rear casting would probably shear the ball off the receiver or break the retention mechanism of the coupler. If this incident actually happened then it should absolutely be investigated. Until there's actual evidence it did however, it's a meaningless (perhaps fraudulent) claim.If it is a real photo, it's probably just a case of the trailer coming off the ball and being only partially restrained by the safety chains. We would almost certainly hear a more official account if the entire Cybertruck receiver was so weak it tore off simply due to the truck hitting a pothole. I don't believe that for a minute. Sounds very fake. Remember the "wonky wheels"? Yeah, that investigation got closed with no action determined to be necessary. There is a group of cretins that love to drum up Tesla negativity out of thin air. It's a game to them and it gives them standing in the Tesla hater community when they are able to create a stir.
