Yesterday, When i was driving into the sun, i noticed these Scratches that i have never noticed before. It only appeared when the sun hit it and went away. Ive never taken the camera cover down or messed with it. What could this be and would this be a warranty item?

Those are from the thin plastic camera housing lining having damage. They may replace it but if its cosmetic they may compare it to other trucks and if other trucks have it they may just say its a “normal characteristic”.
Imo, unless youre like 5 mins from a service center, if its not bothering you and its not causing dysfunction just let it be.

I just took mine in for a camera clean last Wednesday because the wiper and FSD were acting up and they broke the climate keeper thermal sensor which caused some very weird ac behavior. Not useable. Technically works but blows almost no air and only at the feet. Very inconvenient here in Phoenix in the middle of monsoon season. I’ve stopped driving it. It also gets to about 145 in there during the day because cabin overheat protection doesn’t work. Apparently this is a part they had to order and the soonest I could get it replaced is this coming Thursday by mobile. We will see how that goes.
The scratches you are seeing I think happen on the inside of the housing. There were a bunch of them on my last Cybertruck.

Wow thanks for the info. Mine started randomly blowing towards my footwell as well. Looks like I need to add that thermal sensor to my ticket too.
