Frustrated By Tesla's Inability To Repair His Cybertruck, Man Used A

Tesla’s futuristic Cybertruck has been a hot topic since its release. It is known for its bold design and promises of robust performance, but now that it’s on the road, not every owner gets the smooth ride they expected.

One frustrated owner took matters into his own hands when Tesla’s service team couldn’t fix a persistent issue with his vehicle. Here’s how he did it with a $12 part.

Don’t Miss:

When this Cybertruck owner first received his vehicle, the cabin was impressively quiet. Unfortunately, a factory defect in the windshield forced him to replace it and the problems began. After the windshield replacement, a high-pitched whistle started making highway drives unbearable. The noise – a piercing whistle at higher speeds – wasn’t just annoying; it turned a futuristic truck into an unpleasant ride.

The owner, hoping for a quick fix, brought his truck back to Tesla – twice. The first time, Tesla technicians assured him they had addressed the issue, but the whistle persisted. The second time, they told him the noise was “normal” for a Cybertruck. But the owner knew better – his Cybertruck had been perfectly quiet before replacing the windshield. Despite his insistence, Tesla couldn’t reproduce the problem at highway speeds and refused to do anything further.

This story echoes broader frustrations voiced by other Tesla owners. For example, a former Tesla owner recently shared how her repeated service visits and unresolved issues led her to sell her car entirely.

Another owner also detailed his challenges with Tesla service after his Cybertruck failed to stop for a deer, leading to extensive damage and a long wait just to get an insurance estimate.

Frustrated but determined, the Cybertruck owner decided to take matters into his own hands. After doing some research, he found an inexpensive solution: 9mm weather stripping that cost just $12. The weather stripping fit perfectly into the gap along the top of the windshield – no adhesive required. The result? The high-pitched whistle was gone and the cabin returned to its original quiet state, even at speeds over 90 mph.

The fix was effective and easy to implement, requiring only the weather strip to be pressed into place. The owner was thrilled: “Looks perfect … But sounds even better. I love the sound of silence! even at 90+ mph!!!”

This isn’t an isolated case. Tesla owners have been experiencing increasing frustration with the brand’s service. From legal issues preventing Tesla employees from installing accessories like the off-road light bar for the “Cyberbeast” version of the truck, to widespread quality control challenges and cold-weather performance issues, many are questioning whether the Cybertruck – and Tesla’s service infrastructure – was truly ready for the market.

Despite the issues, the Cybertruck remains popular. Last quarter, it became the third bestselling EV in the U.S., behind only Tesla’s Model 3 and Model Y. However, as more owners face these problems, the enthusiasm around the Cybertruck may be tested.
