Cybertruck Accelerator Pedal Trim Recall

Tesla has voluntarily issued a safety recall on model year 2024 Cybertruck vehicles to replace or rework the accelerator pedal assembly to ensure sufficient retention force between the pad and accelerator pedal to prevent the pad from dislodging.

Is my vehicle affected by this recall?

This recall includes all model year 2024 Cybertruck vehicles manufactured from November 13, 2023 to April 4, 2024. All owners can check if their vehicle is affected by entering their VIN in either the Tesla VIN Recall Search or NHTSA VIN Recall search tools.

What is this issue and how does it affect my vehicle?

On affected vehicles, when high force is applied to the pad on the accelerator pedal, the pad may dislodge, which may cause the pedal to become trapped in the interior trim above the pedal.

Is my vehicle safe to drive?

If the pad on the accelerator pedal becomes trapped in the interior trim above the pedal, the performance and operation of the pedal will be affected, which may increase the risk of a collision. Note that application of the brake pedal will cut drive torque, including when both brake and accelerator pedals are pressed, and continued application of the brake pedal will bring the vehicle to a stop as quickly as if the accelerator pedal was not pressed.

If the condition is present and the driver attempts to apply the accelerator pedal, the driver will detect the condition through immediate compromised performance and operation of the pedal. In addition, if the condition is present when the driver applies the brake pedal, the driver will receive an audible and visual alert that both brake and accelerator pedals are being pressed.

What is the recall remedy and how long does it take to perform?

At no charge to you, Tesla will rework, or if necessary, replace the accelerator pedal assembly such that the assembly meets specifications and ensures sufficient retention force between the pad and accelerator pedal to prevent the pad from dislodging. Reworking or replacing the accelerator pedal assembly will take less than 15 minutes and can be performed by our Mobile Service team, where permitted.

Do I need to make a service appointment for this recall?

Yes. Schedule a service appointment using the Tesla app by selecting ‘Service’ > ‘Request Service’ > ‘Other’ > ‘Something Else’ and entering the note “Open Recall Repair – Cybertruck Accelerator Pedal Pad” into the ‘Describe Concern’ field.
