Cybertruck Pickups Recalled for the Tenth Time in Two Years

This time, the concern involves the pickup’s LED roof light bar, which could detach while driving.

Tesla has issued yet another recall for its Cybertruck — the tenth since the model hit the U.S. market in late 2023. The latest campaign affects about 6,200 trucks and targets a potential issue with the mounting of the auxiliary LED light bar on the roof, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

During assembly, a surface priming error occurred on some vehicles, which could cause the light bar to be insufficiently secured and potentially detach while the vehicle is in motion. Tesla will inspect the affected trucks, add additional mounting brackets if needed, or replace the entire light bar at no cost to owners. NHTSA said it has received no reports of accidents related to the defect.

The previous Cybertruck recall, announced earlier in October, also involved lighting. Some vehicles were found to have overly bright marker lights that could dazzle oncoming drivers. That issue is being fixed through an over-the-air software update covering about 63,600 pickups produced between November 13, 2023, and October 11, 2025.

Earlier this spring, Tesla recalled more than 46,000 Cybertrucks due to stainless steel body panels that could detach while driving.

One of Tesla’s largest recalls took place late last year, when around 700,000 vehicles across several models — including the Cybertruck — were brought in to address a malfunction in the tire pressure monitoring system. That campaign marked the truck’s seventh recall since its market debut.
