Read the article though. All that really happened was a delay in reboot. The headline is nothing like what actually happened, which was consumer mishap, essentially.
It needed to be rebooted because he washed it ‘wrong’. and its a known issue that after the car gets too wet reboots can take hours upon hours like this.
The advisor said that “it is a known issue in the Cybertruck that when you do a screen reset, instead of resetting in the standard two minutes, it takes five hours.”
This is crappy and lax software testing and verification testing.
Can we just say that Cybertruck is basically a sum of everything wrong with right wing wackos?
“Look at me, I’m a badass, driving around in a badass vehicle, unlike you filthy libruls. … Aww shucks! There’s road salt! And my accelerator pedal just fell off wtf. …OH NO! A LITTLE WATER TOO! Anything but that!”
I’m amused that liberals bash Tesla for being a conservative virtue signaler by extension of Elon, while conservatives bash Tesla for being an EV virtue signal for liberal tree huggers.

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
So, it would block the exit of that car wash because it’s playing dead and sulking?
Then you need to ask some random people to help you push it away to the side, and everyone gets a good laugh …😅
It’s almost like they make a Fisker Ocean or a Hummer EV
This is literally an article about nothing happening at all.
I would call a car that can be knocked out of commission for half a day because you washed it worth a story.

It’s “journalism”
I have zero sympathy for any of the 3878 chumps who wasted their money on this vehicle. They knew exactly what they were getting
You never know. Someone could make a time travel movie with it one day and then collectors will pay an arm and a leg for the left door.
“Tell me Future Boy, who’s President of the United States in 2017?”
“Donald Trump.”
“Donald Trump? The fraudster? Ha!”
Telsa’s designers have weird history with water. I get the sense that they just don’t do a lot of proper testing in wet environments.
For example, it’s not uncommon for a lot of Teslas to actually grow mold in their air filtration system because they don’t properly drain water.
For example: https://youtu.be/vQxP6PaSmLc
“There’s no water on Mars so we don’t have to worry about it” - Elon, probably
This is nothing new from Tesla. My parents have a Model 3 and they can’t use a car wash at all with it. Hand wash only.
This is definitely not true. Teslas can absolutely go through a car wash. They do recommend touchless ones, but pretty much every manufacturer does.
And 9 cameras you have to consent to using. Total and utter crap.

I’ve been doing that for years. Guess I always knew these were coming
Appropriate, since I always reflexively start doing the Hand Wash gesture every time I see one.
Oh shit, the sun came out and I forgot to put my Cybertruck into “Sunlight Mode”.
It’s bricked now, but it’s really my fault.
You were holding the
phonetruck wrong“…a pigeon could shit on it, who knows!”
Gold bricks are worth like $750k so its definitely not the most expensive brick.
Not even a water issue.
This is crappy and lax software testing and verification testing.
That’ll be
80k, 100k.Which is incredible considering Tesla’s software is typically considered their strong point. This is just a train wreck.
It was an expensive brick before the car wash, too.
To all the chuds that bought this…
Insert Nelson HAAAA HAAAA
Imagine paying for this crap.

So Cybertruck goes 100% Elon now? … turns into world’s most expensive brick …
Did they hire former boeing engineers?
Wait, so Car Wash mode has to be on while driving in the rain also?
