Tesla Inc. (TSLA) on Thursday recalled 63,619 Cybertruck vehicles, citing concerns about the front parking lights, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) stated.
The recall includes model year 2024-2026 Cybertrucks, where the vehicle controller software may cause the front parking lights to be too bright and exceed the maximum light output. These Cybertrucks were manufactured between Nov. 13, 2023, and Oct. 11, 2025.
What’s The Concern?
Bright front parking lights will adversely affect the vision of other drivers and increase the risk of a crash, the regulator noted.
As for a fix, Tesla released an over-the-air software update, free of charge to the customer. The release incorporating the fix began rolling out on October 8, the company added.
Tesla is not aware of any warranty claims or field reports related to this issue, the regulator said. The company is also not aware of any collisions, injuries, or fatalities related to the issue, either, it added.
The company identified the issue on October 1 during an interval review and subsequently decided to issue the recall after conducting a probe.
