The joy of the first owners of the Tesla Cybertruck was marred by another, unexpected problem. It's about the giant windshield wiper suffering from unpredictable breakdowns.

The Cybertruck's windshield almost blends into the hood, and it just doesn't have the standard windshield wipers of traditional cars. Therefore, Tesla engineers had to come up with a unique solution - a giant wiper that is attached to the windshield itself.

However, this innovative approach has led to unexpected consequences: many Cybertruck owners have complained of a problem with this wiper starting on its own for no apparent reason and getting stuck in the down position. Until the problem is clarified, sales of the model have been suspended.

The exact cause of the problem has not yet been determined. But according to experts, we are most likely talking about a failure in the drive mechanism of the wipers. It is possible that the problem is related to incorrect operation of the sensors responsible for activating the wipers, or to a defect in the engine itself.

The company officially confirmed the existence of the problem and announced that all Cybertrucks produced before the defect was discovered will receive a new windshield mechanism. Exact information on how and where the replacement will take place has not yet been announced.
