    You all love troubleshooting computer problems right? Well, we replaced everything in your car with computers so you can always be troubleshooting! Yay capitalism!

      Well, if computers worked as well as this shit you wouldn’t be using it to work tomorrow with billions other people.

      Computerizing cars isn’t a bad idea in itself. Fuel injection, ABS, airbags and so mamy more features that make todays cars so much safer and less polluting all use computers to function. It’s just we live in an enshittification era.

        Screens aren’t a bad idea either. Displaying diagnostic values or at least error messages is always preferred to just an LED or code on the odometer. Not everyone has OBD readers.

        Touchscreens, though? GTFO.

    21 miles and screen absolutely covered in dust. These things must be sitting for ages and not selling. Not even a wipe down from the Tesla store.

        Still, the bottom corner of the film is peeling. Could have been sitting on a lot for a long time, but peeling like that after only a few test drives at most?

        Edit: I ended up digging into his Twitter page and everything is legit. And I’m baffled.

        I’d expect the dealership to give it a quick detail before letting the customer drive away, even used car dealerships do that. But I guess when we’re talking about Tesla all bets are off.

          You can’t detail a car in 15 minutes. Most places just vacuum and run a cloth around the dash. My guess is the Tesla dealer only does that if you ask or demand it, considering they love to cut corners.

          I don’t think Tesla dealers work on commission (basing this entirely off the comment of a rando on this site without verification), so that would help explain it.

            You’d think the dealership would step in though. If I bought a $100k vehicle I’d be beyond livid if it was delivered in that condition. The fact that it’s also broken is just a cherry on top

              But you’d never buy a cyber truck for 100k. Maybe not even for a tenth that. These have to be somewhat impulsive people right? The more you research on a Tesla the worse it gets.

    Cabin climate control system requires service.

    Am I reading that right? Do you need a connection to an external service to turn on the air conditioning?

        Ah yes, that does make more sense, I’m a computer nerd so interpreted the wrong way. Still something’s clearly gone horribly wrong here.

    I know it’s fun to hate on the CyberTruck (absolutely has deserved it), but I’d bet money on this being a 12v battery issue, maybe from improper storage? Only reason I say this is that I have a Kia Soul EV and it gave me pretty much the exact same warning the other day and refused to start. Turned out the 12v battery was dead and that causes all kinds of weird stuff to happen to the electrical systems in the car. Especially considering that the entire electrical system of the CT is consolidated into one wiring harness.

    Also, knowing Tesla, attempting to jump the 12v would probably void a warranty.

      With modern cars having so many sensors, a dying battery can cause all sorts of weird, seemingly random issues. I have no idea it’s the problem here but it’s usually one of the first things I check when an issue isn’t obvious. Just because the battery starts the car (or does whatever it does in evs) doesn’t mean that the sensors, relays, and servos are getting the juice they need to operate correctly.

      Mentioning this on Twitter might bring it to his attention and since this is bad PR, he might expedite the complaint so that it gets fixed sooner. That’s probably the thinking here. I’ve seen it happen with companies before

      I mean the guy too, the first logo on his stupidly pretentious website on where he’s been “featured” is fox news. Glad to see his car shut down on him straight off the lot
