Tesla Pauses Cybertruck Deliveries Over Metal Panel Adhesive Failure

The adhesive securing Cybertruck's stainless steel panels has been failing, leading to safety concerns and halted shipments.

Tesla has stopped Cybertruck deliveries after reports of metal panels detaching due to adhesive failure, particularly in cold climates.
Images on social media show sharp-edged trim flapping in the wind and entire bumpers detaching, prompting complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
The Cybertruck has faced multiple recalls before, including issues with accelerator pedals, windshield wipers, and plastic trim falling off.
Critics highlight ongoing quality control problems, with some customers voicing concerns about durability and the truck's ability to meet its advertised standards.
Tesla has not issued an official statement on the delivery pause, further straining the Cybertruck’s already troubled rollout and raising questions about its long-term viability.
