From car wash bricking the vehicle to coolant leaks, Tesla’s Cybertruck often finds itself in hot waters now and then. In a new incident, a man says he injured his wrist while inspecting the Cybertruck during delivery of the vehicle.
On the Cybertruck Owners Club form, a user who goes by the name ‘bdesign’ says that when he went to pick up the truck from the showroom, the vehicle was in a bad condition. “Windshield (inside) is disastrously dirty. There’s a smeary film over most of it”, which makes it almost impossible to see anything when the sun the windshield directly.
The Cybertruck owner also noticed that the hood was covered in what he calls “rail dust rust spots” and a rubber seal was loose, which the dealership couldn’t fix on the spot because the service department was closed.
When he was inspecting the truck, the user noticed a “little pit/devit or something on the tailgate” which he tried to rub to see if it was a dent or something else and realized that his wrist was sliced by the vehicle, which caused a lot of blood spill. Apparently, his wrist seems to be cut by the sharp corner of the Cybertruck where the tailgate and the side panel connects.
The two employees who were with his wife quickly noticed the injury and bandaged it, following which he was able to complete the delivery. While the injury initially seemed like it was healing, a few hours later he unwrapped his wrist and noticed “spurts of blood all over the kitchen island” and eventually had to take a trip to the emergency room.
However, this is not the first time someone has sustained injuries from a Cybertuck. Earlier this month, another Cybertruck owner managed to cut themselves on the door’s edge when trying to get out of the vehicle. If you think these type of incidents are limited to the Cybertruck, a Bolt EUV user says it happened to them more than once. About two years ago, a Rivian user said they cut their leg on the gear tunnel door.
