Tesla’s Cybertruck has been widely derided. Its panel gaps are wide and amateurish, it’s prone to rust, and it looks like an ergonomic cheese grater. Its most serious flaw to date, though, has resulted in a recall of nearly 4,000 vehicles.

The US National Highway Traffic Safety Association has recalled 3,878 Cybertrucks, which comprises any that were manufactured between November 13 of last year and April 4. At issue is the accelerator pedal: Its pad can become dislodged, resulting in the pedal becoming trapped in the trim above it. This is, needless to say, quite bad.

“If the pad on the accelerator pedal becomes trapped in the interior trim above the pedal, the performance and operation of the pedal will be affected, which may increase the risk of a collision,” wrote the NHTSA in its recall notice.

The notice confirms an incident that swept social media earlier this week. A Cybertruck owner uploaded a video to TikTok that seems to show this exact issue. “As I’m driving, this slid up,” said the poster, demonstrating with his dislodged accelerator pad. “This sliding up, and the way this was still hooked onto the pedal, it held the accelerator down 100 percent.”
