On Thursday, March 20, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recalled nearly all Cybertrucks currently on the road—a total of more than 46,000—due to an exterior panel that may fly off while driving.
If it were to detach or separate mid-drive, the report notes it could create a “road hazard” for passengers and fellow motorists, increasing the risk of “injury or collision."

Tesla, the company which Elon Musk serves as CEO and largest shareholder of, said it will replace the panels free of charge after becoming aware of the issue earlier in the year.
Jimmy Kimmel addressed the recall on Jimmy Kimmel Live during the March 20 monologue, noting, “Today they issued a recall of nearly all 46,000 of their Cybertrucks. That’s the eighth Cybertruck recall since they came out in November of 2023. It’s 15 months — 8 recalls.”
The internet had similar jabs, with many noting, “That thing is literally a trash can on wheels,” as another added, “Note to self, do not drive behind one of these.”
Tesla has been taking quite a hit due to Musk’s political involvement, with the stock tanking from a $1.7 trillion valuation to under $800 billion in recent days. Tesla vehicles, dealerships, and charging stations have also been targets of vandalism, an act which the US Attorney General Pam Bondi said is now considered "domestic terrorism" and punishable by up to 20 years in prison.
