Tesla is recalling 27,185 Cybertruck vehicles because of visibility problems with their rearview camera. It is the fifth recall for the stainless steel electric pickup truck since it first hit the road at the end of 2023
.The reason for the recall is a software issue involving the affected trucks' rearview display screen, which may remain blank for up to eight seconds after a driver shifts into reverse, Tesla disclosed in a filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The U.S. requires rearview screens to activate within two seconds of shifting into reverse.
"A delayed rearview image reduces the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash," the company stated in the notice.
The recall includes certain 2024 Cybertrucks manufactured between Nov. 13, 2023, and Sept. 14, 2024. The recalled vehicles "are or were operating with a specific software logic for low voltage hardware," Tesla said in the filing.
The futuristic-looking Cybertruck has encountered some bumps in the road since debuting in December 2023, with the SUV facing multiple recalls
