Tesla Cybertruck windshield wiper motor can fail
medium How serious is it? About this label
Moderately serious: the truck is fine in clear weather, but a wiper that quits in heavy rain or snow can leave you unable to see, so get it replaced promptly.
What's wrong, in plain English
Too much electrical current can flow to the controller that runs the front windshield wiper, and the controller can burn out. If that happens, the wiper stops working. In rain or snow you could suddenly lose your clear view of the road, which makes a crash more likely. Tesla will replace the wiper motor for free, and owner letters were mailed October 1, 2024. Certain 2024 Cybertrucks are affected.
