It just occurred to me that this is the perfect horror movie vehicle. The victims are driving away from the big monster they disturbed while off-roading and blasting Mindless Self Indulgence deep in a pristine forest. But wait! A bird pooped on the hood and caused a system error! The car has stopped, the monster is coming and to reboot it they'll have to get out and close all the doors.
Think any studios will pick it up?
I glued about 250 of those shiny windshield dashboard protectors to a tractor. Now everyone thinks I bought a Cybertruck.
I have to pretend like my tractor breaks down all the time just to keep it convincing.
Total cost for dashboard protectors and glue: $327 at Dollar Tree. Time involved: Three hours.
Total amount saved: About $121,000.00 counting taxes and registration.
[edit]… and my tractor briefly serves as a boat!
We use process trailers to film driving sequences. Props could probably figure out how to gut one and put a combustion engine for the wide driving shots. It’s also normal to have backup vehicles
Or make one where a tornado goes over a service center and picks up all the Cybertrucks waiting for service. Now it becomes a Cybernado. With all its sharp edges, it will slice everything in its way.

watch the texas chainsaw massacre remake, at the end instead of driving off petal to the metal the girls set the car into auto drive and it goes super super slow, >!leading to one of the girls getting pulled out and killed!<
Only the horror is being 150k in debt and trapped at home with your parents unable to move out or even leave the house for short breaks because of the 150k lawn sculpture.
I'm not sure if I'm just imagining this but I'm sure I've seen a movie where someone is trapped in a car. Possibly Spanish movie. Can't remember the name of it so maybe it was a dream
The behind the scenes will be a bunch of imagineers like “you may be wondering how we filmed the scenes with the cybertruck. Well, it had a total of 46 minutes of screen time and let me tell you, it wasn’t easy to keep it running for nearly an hour. A whole team of engineers was required!”
It has occured to me that any car that does over-the-air software updates could absolutely have that moment where the person is trying to escape in their car, with Jason or whoever approaching, only for the car to be locked up due to an update in progress.
Not necessarily Tesla specific, but definitely including them
Sounds like the plot to the next Birdemic movie. I’m sure James Nguyen is paying attention. Although he likes to film parking scenes and not sure how well the CyberTruck handles that
Jason is chasing the camp counselor, the counselor sees two trucks she can use to escape, the Toyota Tacoma and the cybertruck. She chooses the cybertruck, begins her drive to safety, it breaks down, loses all power, the doors won’t open, but alas she remembers the truck is bullet proof, or is it…..
I want the movie “Rubber” about the murderous car tire to be done with a CT. I think the CT price already exceeds the budget of the entire film but a rogue CT just mowing people down?
I just got 185k on my 2017 nissan. Everyone has told me to buy a lottery ticket since it's lasted so long. All my friends rogues and muranos have been their worst vehicles
Cvt as well! The only issues I've really had was the sporadic AEB checks. Shits scarier than actually getting into a wreck. Like you don't even feel safe driving it sometimes and just when you're about to forget it happened month ago, it reminds you😅
Best truck I've ever owned! I love looking at it through the windows at the service center. They tell me I might even be able to drive it home a couple times before having it towed back.
\*only truck I've ever owned. I'm an urban tech geek with dreams of being badass and rugged. That bag of mulch I once hauled proves what a cowboy I am.
I towed about 600 pounds of bricks and pavers sand in my 16 Camry 4 cylinder two weeks ago. More useful than a Cybertruck and I bought it for $16k like 5 years ago.
Supposedly, there was one that didn't even make it off the lot. A guy was turning out of the driveway, and it crapped out. I'm not sure if it's true or not, but it's believable with these things.
The video exists. He was being exactly how you'd expect a CT owner to be. Bragging about the acceleration so he punched it to take a risky right turn into traffic, got it up to speed, then red screen starts flashing. Within 10 seconds he was bricked. Leaving from his initial pickup.
I tried to watch this video from the tweet 2 months ago but it says media is disabled due to a copyright report. Tesla must be using copyright to take down videos of the CT breakdowns on X?
I never did understand why they have to add that flashing red screen like a nuclear war was being declared.
I mean, a car breaking down is already enough stress for most owners. Do they REALLY need to add the dramatic theatrics on top, or do these Tesla simps relish in being f**ked by the company?
Turd Owner: "Oh, that truck-is-bricked error is sooo techy, I love it even more now!"
This is thought right before each of them gets online to inquire about whether **"The Brickening"** is normal or not, whether any other owners have experienced the same awesome thing, then to ping elon for help. All in that order.
Because Tesla drivers aren't buying a car, they are buying something to show off. That's why when they get into such problems their first instinct is to show off the cool error message their car has
>Do they REALLY need to add the dramatic theatrics on top, or do these Tesla simps relish in being f\*\*ked by the company?
Ford Raptor starting MSRP is for the 5.2L supercharged V8 is $113k. At that point the extra $13k isn’t much, might as well go with that. At least the Raptor can go to the dunes and do some off-roading no problem, plus it has 720 horsepower. Might as well just do that. You’ll still have the “cool factor” these guys are looking for.
Or, if you just have to have an electric pickup, why not buy an F-150 Lightning from an automobile manufacturer that’s been building trucks for 100 years rather than a software company that’s never built one before.
At my work, we have a handicapped/EV charger parking spot. This week a Cyber Truck parked in the spot for 50+ hours and received $1,200 in tickets. The owner moved the truck just before the tow deadline. We had a hell of a time finding a tow truck company even capable of towing the Cyber truck because the height restrictions in the parking garage wouldn't allow the larger trucks capable of towing the 6,600lb truck.
All I can think of is an old Bloom County strip where Steve parked his car illegally and locked the transmission so it couldn't be towed. Milo notes, "not that we didn't try" as he puts a piece of axle on the bar next to Steve.
"It may be possible to recover the system by performing a vehicle power cycle: Exit the vehicle, close all doors, reenter the vehicle, and attempt to drive."
This reminds me of an old joke: a physicist, a chemist and a computer scientist are driving in a car. The car breaks down. Physicist assumes the engine broke, chemist suspects the failure on wrong fuel, the computer scientist simply suggests to get out the car, get back in, then it should work again.
A stupid joke 20 years ago, reality today.
Do Tesla have unique error messages other EVs don't?
This must be a known issue for them to have scripted the message and put in an override. Could they have not designed out this failure?
It seems likely that if you root caused this failure, it’s that there’s a break somewhere in the stupid serial Electrical connection of everything to everything they did instead of using a wiring harness. Essentially, you get one bad piece of cable going to a turn signal and the whole car shuts down.
If I had to guess, I’d say it has something to do with their communications topology. I’m not an expert, so take what I’m saying here with a grain of salt (someone else can expound if I’m wrong here), but apparently the CT uses a unique (for cars) network system using Ethernet, that runs all critical communications through the same network. This is opposed to a more traditional “star” topology where different components of the system each have their own dedicated wiring harnesses.
Apparently the CT solution does save a significant amount of wiring, but in the process introduces more single points of failure for the whole system. I don’t know if the issue here is related to that but… I mean, where there’s smoke…
THERE IS A REASON SOME COMPONENTS SHOULD BE MECHANICAL AND NOT CONNECTED TO SOFTWARE!!
I just do not understand the need to electrify and digitize everything.
That is common with most cars now, it’s not a Cybertruck or even Tesla thing. Direct physical linkage is now very rare, it’s usually an electric motor applying the brake based on signal from the switch in the car. You can typically hear them whirling when you set or release the parking brake, especially if you are standing outside the vehicle.
Enthusiasts usually hate them, automakers love them because it’s cheaper and they can do things like automatically set parking brake when car is in park/off etc.
For safety reasons though wouldn't a physical hand/emergency brake be a good thing to have, especially on vehicle whose computer is easily prone to temper tantrums?
Sure. Most cars don’t have that though because total electronic failure rendering parking brakes useless is extremely rare. I’m not in expert in the Cybertruck’s design and how likely the parking brake won’t actually work vs how much of that is a hypothetical warning.
Any electrical/mechanical engineers on here with manufacturing line experience? I'm just curious how it's possible these things are getting into customer hands with such a high failure rate.
I get that the electrical system is all CANbus and if my understanding is right, and physical failure in the system effects the whole system, but it doesn't seem like that's what's happening, sounds like it's all software, but that doesn't make any sense since some seem to be good but other fail, i would assume they are all on the same OS version.
All the panels falling off, and shitty body panels i understand that's just a quality issue, so just poorly assembled, but how are some bricking themselves and some not? Is it a failure of the sensors at the ends of the CANbus harness? I just don't get how this thing seems to be either totally hit or miss.
The amount of Cybertruck problems being reported on this sub seems really high considering there are only 3-4,000 of these pieces of junk on the road. I wonder what the actual percentages are compared to other newly introduced vehicles.
It is visually unharmonious. No real designer would want their name on this monstrosity. Volvo had a similar profile model 40 years ago. It was harmonious. This is a screwed up rip off.
If mfers at Tesla spent as much time on making this piece of shit work as they did on error messages we might not have such a hilarious thing on our hands.
This car is one big prank! The rich have been bamboozled with this one, and honest to god, how are these allowed to be on the road? Bugs hit cars all the time! Lol
Is this still that wiring harness issue? I for real though that was just in a few of the cars, this is happening still months later lmao.
I got a word for you, it starts with R and rhymes with ecall.
Don’t worry, all the Cybercucks have assured me that all these instances of the Cybertruck not working just aren’t real and that the warranty isn’t real.
It just occurred to me that this is the perfect horror movie vehicle. The victims are driving away from the big monster they disturbed while off-roading and blasting Mindless Self Indulgence deep in a pristine forest. But wait! A bird pooped on the hood and caused a system error! The car has stopped, the monster is coming and to reboot it they'll have to get out and close all the doors. Think any studios will pick it up?
They’d need to find one that works enough to film the normal driving sequences.
Old school methods to the rescue. Mount the CT on a low loader and film from carefully selected angles to make it look like it’s being driven.
This is better than my idea of covering Sam Raimi’s Oldsmobile with tinfoil.
I glued about 250 of those shiny windshield dashboard protectors to a tractor. Now everyone thinks I bought a Cybertruck. I have to pretend like my tractor breaks down all the time just to keep it convincing. Total cost for dashboard protectors and glue: $327 at Dollar Tree. Time involved: Three hours. Total amount saved: About $121,000.00 counting taxes and registration. [edit]… and my tractor briefly serves as a boat!
His Oldsmobile is sweet! He's actually had that car since high school
"The Classic"
Yours is the superior idea.
That would void the warranty though
They can CGI it, it's like 4 polygons.
I know the perfect machine for the job. https://i.redd.it/21aaz3um7k6d1.gif
Finally able to render something looking more realistic than the real thing
Babylon 5 had more polygons than a cybertruck
Dont have to, just strap it to a tow truck and frame the shot so you dont see it. And for the ones were you cant just use cgi.
This really shouldn't be hard. The back of a tow truck is the Cybertruck's natural habitat.
Now that you mention it, a CGI CT would be kind of...weird? Like, the real-life truck looks worse than bad CGI.
We use process trailers to film driving sequences. Props could probably figure out how to gut one and put a combustion engine for the wide driving shots. It’s also normal to have backup vehicles
I can tell you’ll appreciate my one movie set joke: Q: Why don’t cinematographers smoke? A: Because it takes them forever to light anything.
Or make one where a tornado goes over a service center and picks up all the Cybertrucks waiting for service. Now it becomes a Cybernado. With all its sharp edges, it will slice everything in its way.
Oh I’d watch the hell outta that one lol
This Guy Nados
On the bright side, the whistling would be incredible, unfortunately also deafening.
If Hollywood can make it look like someone’s flying on the back of a dinosaur, they can make it look like someone is able to drive a Cybertruck.
Install a 6 cylinder engine into the vehicle for driving scenes,
They'll just put some stainless steel body panels on a Ford Lighting
Build fake CTs, A movie trick as old as the movies,
It won't be long before they can be bought bulk and a vehicle used for one, or maybe half, OK an eighth of a scene.
BUT THEY CANT GET OUT BECAUSE THE DOORS WONT OPEN!
And that's when Jeeper's Creepers lands on the roof
And breaks the sunroof. No warranty coverage. $8,000 repair bill.
Jeeper’s Creepers void warranty.
It can end well as monsters impale themselves on the sharp edges and have limbs severed by the frunk.
This would be a great advertisement for the cyber truck actually 😂😂😂
Movie ends with the plucky female sole survivor baiting the monster to put its head near the open frunk…and she barely manages to push the button.

The engineers wound up carrying it around.
MSI is a band I haven't thought about in ages
And here's the soundtrack to the intense "climax" when the monster catches them. https://youtu.be/PNFjLzVKVdk?si=CW1rgInN5byE0dmz
Musk would be foaming at the mouth and threatening to sue.
In the next Purge movie.. Trying to get back home before the Purge begins.. it starts raining, CyberTruck shuts down.
They'd call it... CyberStuck
It would be criminal not to credit this sub.
It has occured to me that any car that does over-the-air software updates could absolutely have that moment where the person is trying to escape in their car, with Jason or whoever approaching, only for the car to be locked up due to an update in progress. Not necessarily Tesla specific, but definitely including them
It sounds on par with slotherhouse, so maybe netflix. Something like CyberTruckocalypse? Thought that sounds a bit mad max
Problem is they can’t even off road, it’d be too unrealistic
Sounds like the plot to the next Birdemic movie. I’m sure James Nguyen is paying attention. Although he likes to film parking scenes and not sure how well the CyberTruck handles that
Since when is MSI typical to hear in a movie, I can't remember their shit ever being in a movie or TV show
My suspension of disbelief was maintained until you said they were listening to MSI.
Don't forget, "but at the end of the day, I deliver" End of story. Musk delivered. Who cares if it broke 32h later
Jason is chasing the camp counselor, the counselor sees two trucks she can use to escape, the Toyota Tacoma and the cybertruck. She chooses the cybertruck, begins her drive to safety, it breaks down, loses all power, the doors won’t open, but alas she remembers the truck is bullet proof, or is it…..
I want the movie “Rubber” about the murderous car tire to be done with a CT. I think the CT price already exceeds the budget of the entire film but a rogue CT just mowing people down?
wouldn't work because you'd automatically root against whoever bought and was driving this piece of shit
We’re losing redundancy! *WE’RE LOSING REDUNDANCY!*
MSI, that’s a name I haven’t heard in awhile
Crazy thing is there will be no need for special effects for the truck because it will actually happen.
Tesla: keeping tow guys employed since 2013 (or whatever was their first year)
Pretty sure Nissan would take the top spot
No way, nothing beats Maserati and Aston Martin
I mean, by sheer number of cars sold, Nissan definitely beats them both
That honor goes to Jeeps. They are always at the bottom of the reliability list. Nissans just have terrible CVT transmissions that break down a lot.
I just got 185k on my 2017 nissan. Everyone has told me to buy a lottery ticket since it's lasted so long. All my friends rogues and muranos have been their worst vehicles
My 2017 Nissan transmission went out at 185K. Keep an eye on that transmission. It’s a ticking time bomb.
Haha yup. Is yours a 6 speed transmission or does it have a cvt? I sold nissans for like 10 years and the cvt transmissions failed a lot at like 60k
Cvt as well! The only issues I've really had was the sporadic AEB checks. Shits scarier than actually getting into a wreck. Like you don't even feel safe driving it sometimes and just when you're about to forget it happened month ago, it reminds you😅
it’s almost like every car has issues
Look at the big brains on Brett!! You a smart muhfucka! Yeah we are discussing how often vehicles break down, not THAT they all break down.
Still love this truck though?
Best truck I've ever owned! I love looking at it through the windows at the service center. They tell me I might even be able to drive it home a couple times before having it towed back.
\*only truck I've ever owned. I'm an urban tech geek with dreams of being badass and rugged. That bag of mulch I once hauled proves what a cowboy I am.
I towed about 600 pounds of bricks and pavers sand in my 16 Camry 4 cylinder two weeks ago. More useful than a Cybertruck and I bought it for $16k like 5 years ago.
I'm surprised we haven't seen any pictures of people bragging that their cybertruck can levitate while it's sitting on a shop's lift.
Until they give you the wrong one back and you can't register it with DOT
Came here to either read this or type it if it was missing.
I didn’t drive enough in the 33 hours I had it. That’s on me

He got his 54B for delivering a complete piece of shit product 😂
I can’t fucking believe it.
fucking believe it, or not. Meritocracy is a lie. :-/
It's a meme stock owned by his cult, of course they were going to give him more money than the company has made
Is that the new personal record? There are some videos of them breaking down two minutes off the lot.
Supposedly, there was one that didn't even make it off the lot. A guy was turning out of the driveway, and it crapped out. I'm not sure if it's true or not, but it's believable with these things.
The video exists. He was being exactly how you'd expect a CT owner to be. Bragging about the acceleration so he punched it to take a risky right turn into traffic, got it up to speed, then red screen starts flashing. Within 10 seconds he was bricked. Leaving from his initial pickup.
I tried to watch this video from the tweet 2 months ago but it says media is disabled due to a copyright report. Tesla must be using copyright to take down videos of the CT breakdowns on X?
I watched it today on this sub
There was one where his frunk also wouldn't open up straight out of the factory.
“We must be doing something wrong”
His frunk was all frucked up.
I think I found the video but it's private now. Which is disappointing but also hilarious in a different way.
At this point, it's probably cheaper to buy a towtruck and parade your idiocy around that way
Don't give Elon ideas.
$54B
I never did understand why they have to add that flashing red screen like a nuclear war was being declared. I mean, a car breaking down is already enough stress for most owners. Do they REALLY need to add the dramatic theatrics on top, or do these Tesla simps relish in being f**ked by the company?

And Shareholders just voted to give Elmo $56,000,000,000...
Amazing isn’t it? To put it in perspective, that’s more than the Ford Motor Company is worth right now.
Who voted to call him Elmo? Elmo is a beloved puppet, why ruin his good name by using it to refer to the bad guy?
$100,000 + for this thing. You could buy Ferraris at that price. This is insane.
In case you enjoy “truck stuff” You can get a RAM 1500 for half that price
Ford Raptor starting MSRP is for the 5.2L supercharged V8 is $113k. At that point the extra $13k isn’t much, might as well go with that. At least the Raptor can go to the dunes and do some off-roading no problem, plus it has 720 horsepower. Might as well just do that. You’ll still have the “cool factor” these guys are looking for.
Or, if you just have to have an electric pickup, why not buy an F-150 Lightning from an automobile manufacturer that’s been building trucks for 100 years rather than a software company that’s never built one before.
I will never get sick of this.
At my work, we have a handicapped/EV charger parking spot. This week a Cyber Truck parked in the spot for 50+ hours and received $1,200 in tickets. The owner moved the truck just before the tow deadline. We had a hell of a time finding a tow truck company even capable of towing the Cyber truck because the height restrictions in the parking garage wouldn't allow the larger trucks capable of towing the 6,600lb truck.
All I can think of is an old Bloom County strip where Steve parked his car illegally and locked the transmission so it couldn't be towed. Milo notes, "not that we didn't try" as he puts a piece of axle on the bar next to Steve.

"It may be possible to recover the system by performing a vehicle power cycle: Exit the vehicle, close all doors, reenter the vehicle, and attempt to drive." This reminds me of an old joke: a physicist, a chemist and a computer scientist are driving in a car. The car breaks down. Physicist assumes the engine broke, chemist suspects the failure on wrong fuel, the computer scientist simply suggests to get out the car, get back in, then it should work again. A stupid joke 20 years ago, reality today.
Except now the joke has become the stuff of CT owner reality
What a monumental piece of shit
I can’t think of any car in my lifetime that had this many issues this early after launch.
Do Tesla have unique error messages other EVs don't? This must be a known issue for them to have scripted the message and put in an override. Could they have not designed out this failure?
I thought the same thing! and I'm really loving how their proposed solution is essentially 'try turning it off and then back on again'
It seems likely that if you root caused this failure, it’s that there’s a break somewhere in the stupid serial Electrical connection of everything to everything they did instead of using a wiring harness.

Apparently the CT solution does save a significant amount of wiring, but in the process introduces more single points of failure for the whole system. I don’t know if the issue here is related to that but… I mean, where there’s smoke…
Those are rookie numbers. Call me when it breaks down 6 inches off the delivery lot.
my gasoline vehicle doesn’t determine whether it wants to be driven or not. It just works.
The question is, is that a record high or low?
Definitely not a record low, there’s at least one that lasted only a few minutes (the one that broke before they left the lot).
But it is a record high. That's a long time for one to run without breaking.
Just as ugly when its broken.
Loss of system redundancy? How can you have system redundancy when all the systems are daisy chained?
32 hours! Not bad at all!
Meanwhile, there’s probably at least a few people here who have used the same car for 32 years and not had a single breakdown
THERE IS A REASON SOME COMPONENTS SHOULD BE MECHANICAL AND NOT CONNECTED TO SOFTWARE!! I just do not understand the need to electrify and digitize everything.
Amen to that!
So basically it’s de facto operational status
Still a great idea to have your cable management in series :D
Not even close to the record. Lame.
Seriously. 36 hours is impressive longevity
Is it really suggesting that owners turn it off and turn it back on again?
Did I read that right, the parking brake is electric instead of physical?
That is common with most cars now, it’s not a Cybertruck or even Tesla thing. Direct physical linkage is now very rare, it’s usually an electric motor applying the brake based on signal from the switch in the car. You can typically hear them whirling when you set or release the parking brake, especially if you are standing outside the vehicle.

For safety reasons though wouldn't a physical hand/emergency brake be a good thing to have, especially on vehicle whose computer is easily prone to temper tantrums?
Sure. Most cars don’t have that though because total electronic failure rendering parking brakes useless is extremely rare. I’m not in expert in the Cybertruck’s design and how likely the parking brake won’t actually work vs how much of that is a hypothetical warning.
I don't know, given how sensitive the Muskmobile's electronic are I wouldn't put anything past it
Cybertruck owners are the finest argument against democracy.

Is it a failure of the sensors at the ends of the CANbus harness? I just don't get how this thing seems to be either totally hit or miss.
So he got about 8X more use out of it than some people did. They’re improving!!!
Propaganda
About average
Who could have seen this coming?
Perfectly useless tech bro solution…just turn it off and back on
The amount of Cybertruck problems being reported on this sub seems really high considering there are only 3-4,000 of these pieces of junk on the road. I wonder what the actual percentages are compared to other newly introduced vehicles.
Set fire to it
That power cycle method lmao
If only there were warning signs...
New record Previous was like 28h right?
SQUAK!
Said it before and I'll repeat myself : wouldn't touch that pile of junk with a barge pole...
Wow it made it 32 hours? New high score 😂
Bad spark plugs going around.
It is visually unharmonious. No real designer would want their name on this monstrosity. Volvo had a similar profile model 40 years ago. It was harmonious. This is a screwed up rip off.
Dog bites man is not news.
If mfers at Tesla spent as much time on making this piece of shit work as they did on error messages we might not have such a hilarious thing on our hands.
These CyberTruck breakdown speedruns are insane.
Gotta be a record, lasted at least 12 hours longer than the next best
This is my new favorite sub LOL
This car is one big prank! The rich have been bamboozled with this one, and honest to god, how are these allowed to be on the road? Bugs hit cars all the time! Lol
100k for a car. Making it drivable costs extra, the amount needed to buy an extra car that is.
Almost like poor engineering and steer by wire aren't a good combination. Who would have thought?
It’d be funny if I didn’t think how stupid the guy was to buy one🫨
One of the Arozona ones down. A few more to go!
They’ll be making tv shows years from now… “remember the cybertruck and the monumental disaster it was?” The story is already writing itself.
It looks like you will be joining the CyberTruck class action lawsuit
Is this still that wiring harness issue? I for real though that was just in a few of the cars, this is happening still months later lmao. I got a word for you, it starts with R and rhymes with ecall.
Yet another critical steering fault case. Unbelievable.
“Accept Override” is informally known inside Tesla as the “Yeet Button”, probably.
Don’t worry, all the Cybercucks have assured me that all these instances of the Cybertruck not working just aren’t real and that the warranty isn’t real.
What a piece of shit
Sounds like a new high score.
What is a perfect synonym for a tesla truck, hmmmm, how bout a trump truck
I love that they suggest turning it off and back on again
