Within the first year of launching its heavily anticipated Cybertruck, Telsa announced a fifth recall for the electric vehicle, this time involving a delay in the rearview camera display that can impair a driver's visibility and increase the risk of collision.
In an announcement, Tesla said the recall involved all Cybertrucks manufactured between Nov. 13, 2023, and Sept. 13, 2024, with software that isn't booting up the rearview display images within a required two seconds.
If the driver starts backing up before the vehicle system completes its shutdown and boot-up, the rearview image may not display in a timely manner, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recall report.
The display currently may appear blank for 6 to 8 seconds, according to the report.
Tesla identified 45 warranty claims and four field reports that may be related to the issue, but the company said it's not aware of any crashes, injuries or deaths relating to the problem.
The electric vehicle company is remedying the issue by asking owners to update the vehicle's software using a wireless network connection.
Cybertruck owners can check if their vehicle is part of the recall by typing their vehicle identification number on either the Tesla VIN Recall Search online site or the NHTSA VIN Recall site.
