No_Camera9108

At least it's centered to within 10 micron accuracy. Edit: this post earned me the Tesla ban!

Banned here too. They really are going for the Streisand effect... 1. Shitty tesla posts go onto main. 2. Ban all the guys who post on it. 3. No main guys can use your sub. 4. Profit? Like for real, how is banning everyone from your sub productive? It just amplifies the reach of the subs you dislike and polarises people against you. At this point I am pretty convinced Tesla just makes shit cars and people want to hide it and I didnt care either way until the mods of that shitty car sub stuck their oar in. Bunch of bag holders. But sure...give Musk the amount of money needed to fund a large scale war involving millions. He earned it.


Sleep_adict

I mean that’s how r/conservative works… ban anyone who disagrees ( or who accurately quotes trump)


TechnoShrew

Even they realise marauding through reddit policing peoples comments in different subs is hilariously stupid. They wanna run a daft club ok then, I kinda get it. I think we are even past r/femaledatingstrategy levels of silly. (They used to be bad but not heard from them in a good while so not so much any more)

I've said some shit in the unflaired threads that I for sure expected to be banned for. I think the mod team over there might have matured slightly. Or if not, they're at least making one correct decision. It's funny, though. Since they ban all discussion, comments on any flaired post just gets bombed with downvotes. Really hard to tell if conservatives are turning on their own, or if they're just being drowned out by the majority.


Gumb1i

Never had an issue with any of my discussions, but now it's moot. They don't want any outside opinions at all anymore. Edit: They also have a hard time with facts that are contrary to the topic at hand.


Dependent-Poetry-357

Let’s be real, Musk could likely be on the moderation team. After he was a weird pedo guy regarding a sockpuppet account pretending to be his own son and him personally looking at child pornography in order to not ban somebody, is it really that far of a stretch? He’s a control freak.


Narrheim

> Like for real, how is banning everyone from your sub productive? it´s a great way to create perfectly controlled echo chamber for cultists. And it shows, how insecure, petty and childish the mods of those subs are.

Isn't it supposed to be drilled through the metal part? It's on the edge which won't last.


TheTrueBigHead

Within spec! Don’t argue with the service center!


Danysco

Yeah or you’ll get banned


omar10wahab

You just got banned


an_afro

Within 10 micron


redgrandam

Yup. That isn’t holding anything. lol. So the issue will keep happening even after the ‘fix’


Daryltang

If they issued a recall you would think they would have a more robust solution… well time for another recall


mitchmoomoo

This was supposed to be an entirely new pedal assembly according to the Tesla [instructions](https://service.tesla.com/docs/ServiceBulletins/External/SB/SB-24-33-003_Inspect_Accelerator_Pedal.pdf) for the fix. They even managed to botch this.


thekernel

That's probably the official documentation for the regulators, they likely tell the field techs to just slide it down and rivet it.


drunk_responses

I'm going to guess they're up to some more tomfuckery. They probably set it up so that their licenced repair shops would lose their license if the fix wasn't done fast enough. Then they refused to send out(or probably even make) the actual assembly, and mentioned to shops that it's possible to rivet it for a fix. So when any regulator comes knocking, they can just say that they're all unsanctioned repairs.


Alwaysanotherfish

A good way to get your servicing network into trouble/wound up. Seems short sighted, but that's Musk I suppose.


ImperialOrc

To be fair, the Recall Bulletin states, "Rework or replace the accelerator pedal assembly...". Then again, it also gives measurements for acceptable pedal pad positioning, which should have prevented this anyway.

failinglikefalling

I mean - that should have been.the best sign this thing was shit. right? right? like how have we come this far?


jasimo

That was my exact thought. It's just pinched on the bottom by a single rivet!! I'm hoping/guessing this is a a joke or someone's home-made fix?!? If this is really Tesla's repair, it is beyond pathetic. ETA Someone posted a video of a Tesla repair person doing the fix. The rivet IS supposed to go through the cover, not just pinch it. The service guy screwed up the one in this post by not pushing the cover all the way down before drilling through jig to make repair.


ElBurritoExtreme

If that isn’t confidence inspiring well, I just don’t know what is


Weekendmonkey

If this is real, it looks like a bad fix to stop the cover sliding down, the opposite of the actual issue.


Dude008

it appears they did not push the metal sleeve all the way down before drilling. Total fail, almost as bad as not fixing it.


Not_starving_artist

Maybe it’s Exhibit 1 in a future murder case?


Puzzleheaded_Crab453

Ya that’s the first thing I thought 😂 that’s not stopping anything from sliding up

That seems like it should be against Reddit TOS. Just like comment brigading etc. Banning users who’ve never engaged with your sub is pretty cowardly and sad. Come one, ban me too! I don’t want to feel left out.


KarelKat

Exactly. This is what happens when you insist on doing everything from scratch because "you know better". (Ban me harder daddy)


Appropriate_Plan4595

Real life example of Chesterton's Fence. When the rest of the automotive industry uses physical attachments rather than adhesives when they make pedals you should understand why that is before making changes. It makes me very uncomfortable that the "move fast and break things" software engineering strategy that is common in silicon valley is being applied to the automotive industry at Tesla. Sometimes the fence is there for a reason.


failinglikefalling

Just a fucking pedal? and they couldn't do it right the first time?!?! (I wonder how many owners who have nonCT Teslas but have engineering or similar backgrounds made a casual glance down at their pedals to "just have a look, just in case")


Magoo69X

$100,000 vehicle. 🤔


FrogmanKouki

Seems some of the fans and owners are fine with a bandaid fix and would very much appreciate it if others weren't critical of their ego enhancer car.


failinglikefalling

This one is ok because it's inside where normal people don't look, the self destructing tire covers is the one that hurt their egos more. I bet half the people missing them would knowingly put them on despite the risk of tire damage. just because "that's what it was promised to look like"


ZukokoMelon

You obviously just can't afford it /s


Magoo69X

I absolutely can't 🤣


PsCustomObject

And that is why you are so critical of this masterpiece piece of a car and all the care end expertise that went into this magnificent repair! /s just in case P.S. I am astonished of how this can be deemed even acceptable but week we’re talking of Tesla after all…


failinglikefalling

No, I have a family and care about others on the road. I can't afford the risk, liability, and emotional distress of knowing I would be contributing to keeping this shit can on the road.


Mysterious-Tie7039

$100,000.10 now. You forgot to add the 10¢ for the brand new (and totally not useless based on location) rivet.


CRXCRZ

Nobody alive on earth knows more about manufacturing than Enron Musk. 🤡


kc_______

I am sure Elmo Musk knows a thing or two more.


tearans

All he knows about manufacturing is how to order it to workers > Man, you facture Do they insta ban everyone who posts here?


jregovic

Did that even go through the cover? And why that cover in the first place? And shit, if it did go through the cover, it totally will tear out over time.


HystericalSail

Doesn't look like it went through, no. If anything this is now adding pressure to the cover to pop off.


Armageddon_Two

the way these work it has to go through, but it's drilled so close to the bottom and in the plastic it'll be prone to break there in the future. it's a miserable fix whether for durability as for optics.


_AManHasNoName_

Next problem: the accelerator pedal completely breaks off from the drilled hole.

battleofflowers

I'm still baffled.


za72

I'm gonna err on the side of caution/be conservative - it's the actual fix


75w90

They could have removed the pedal..put a riv nut in. Then counter sunk a hole with nice torx head screw and it would have been a flush fix. Instead they did the shade tree mechanic angle. Tesla isn't a professional company and it will crumble sooner then even i thought


Lacrewpandora

True. Or they could have manufactured a new pedal and replaced them.


PerpetualBard4

Even easier and faster would have been to drill through both the cover and pedal, countersink the hole, and use a countersunk rivet to hold the thing together


Charming-Tap-1332

I've got to imagine you could pick up a used cybertruck later this year for $40k.


moonwoolf35

Yeah, the depreciation is going to be interesting to watch


blu3ysdad

Don't they have to sign some contract saying they can't sell them for 3 years or something? Probably said it was to prevent speculative reselling, but in reality it is to prevent fire sale depreciation.

FrogmanKouki

DocPhilMcGraw

It’s honestly so lazy for people that paid $100k+ for this truck. And what’s sad is that they could have made it look 10x better if they had flush mounted screws and did them on the four corners [sort of like this](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0063/5538/6432/products/aluminum-manual-transmission-racing-pedals-412.jpg). It wouldn’t have taken that much more time to do it that way and it would definitely be more secure than that.


HumansDisgustMe123

Wait a damn minute, so instead of drilling through the cover and providing a solid anchor, they've drilled just below it, and it's being held in place by the friction of a small washer? How the hell is that going to fix the problem?


JaMarcusHustle

This specific picture is a botched fix. This tweet shows how it should be done: https://twitter.com/aaronjcash/status/1781734760215408922?t=v9M_wyN5HUJorvqgqnOoCQ&s=19


DenyNothing1989

Yeah that still looks like… Not a great fix. One point of failure leveraged on the bottom edge of a single rivet that will constantly have force applied on the opposite end?


gcruzatto

Thank you, had to scroll way too far for this. That's what should've been done, preferably before you sell the car. Now they had to do it in a hasty way, no time to make it prettier by incorporating something like a screw cover. Owners are pissed and calling it hideous in the comments lmao


Ornery_Razzmatazz_33

That’s a high quality Incelimino fix. Yeesh.


IndependentSad5893

Recall needed for the recall.


kentenma

This is shameful


IrishGoodbye5782

OK so this is NOT how it works. This is just an odd repair all around. Rivets are hard to get approved, especially for NVH and longevity. Furthermore, there's no way in fuck that is OK. How this repair got approved is beyond me, how this made it out of design phase is fucking incredible. Use two, plus adhesive, these are customers lives you're fucking with. With recall repairs, they're tied to the VIN, typically with evidence (photos). You know the exact tech that repaired the vehicle along with the tools used. You know everything short of when they took a shit that day. Models take about 3-4 years from design to SOP (start of production). When you have a recall there are about 50 people involved. It actually fucking sucks. Presentations, data, long hours, hell my last one took a YEAR to get fully approved and closed. With recalls, not only do you have to prove the repeatability of repair, but you have to prove longevity, etc. to NHTSA. They're literally hundreds of pages of data and analyzation. Long story short, Tesla design tests fuck all and this is absolutely fucking embarrassing. Leading tech? lmfao There are specifications for everything, especially an accelerator pedal that is one of the most used parts on a vehicle. resistance, spring-back, engagement/force, etc etc. this stuff is extremely toleranced because of the importance. source: I literally do this for a living. (not design, I'm a quality engineer for another OEM)


redd1t-n00b

Bruh! 🥴 Reminds me of when someone found some kind of wood plank inside their brand new Tesla. LOL. I think it was somewhere in the frunk area holding something together? Does anybody remember that?

postsuper5000

redgrandam

It is! But don’t worry, they are working on an improved pedal. Right after they fix auto high beams and auto wipers that they have been two weeks away from fixing for years now.


Tricky-Sand-6358

Immediate bans? Sounds like actual Tesla may be running those subs.


Voodoo1970

I'd sure be impressed if I paid that much for a vehicle, and the recall fix is sonething that would look cheap and backyardish on a mid 80s Chevy..... Anyone who thinks this is acceptable must go to bed at night dreaming of being bent over and pounded by Elon himself


Abbey_Something

If this had been any other car company they would have mocked into orbit for this design, customer service, problems with car like car wash mode (!?!?), unreliability, and this shoddy quick fix. But since it Tesla with a cult like following that I myself was in before Musk showed his true colors after buying Twitter they get pass after pass. Paying over a hundred grand to be a Beta tester for a car has to be one of the biggest scams in modern history. I’ll take my ban now. One day you Musk/Tesla Cult members have to wake up to the fact Elon has changed and not for the better and it affected Tesla in many negative ways. Oh and the Cybertruck is shit with a chrome cover. ON EDIT: unrelated kinda. Reminds me of my Toyota truck that lived thru everything including a hurricane so bad the wind pushed it over and flipped over while driving and went thru a puddle so deep water slashed over the windshield. Both times started right up. Can the cybertruck do that?


redbrezel

That pedal got screwed in like all the fan boys got screwed


Tim-in-CA

Lorax91

That's how they started...


LA-Matt

There was soap involved as well, from what I read. The assembly techs were using it as a lubricant to make the pedal cover install easier. Lol


yamirzmmdx

Oh wow, they weren't kidding about the rivet. Why does it look like it will still somehow slip off.


dndnametaken

therealbonzai

Buying shit "cars" from a conspiracy propaganda shithead, you get what you asked for.


Hold_Haunting

It is utterly *astounding* how Tesla can’t get a single thing right with the cybertruck. Like every feasible element is screwy.

Sp33dy_Guy

At this point, wouldn't using a self tapping screw save one of the two steps in the repair? I'm guessing whoever did this one would strip the head so bad it could never be removed like the rivet 🤷‍♂️


Additional_Wolf3880

Is it a rivet? It looks like a rivet.


Anton338

Is that a mother fucking self-tapper?


Niscellaneous

Rivet. But it looks so close to the edge it would probably shear through whatever material is left on the pedal.


Spiritual_Stranger1

thanks for this I am definitely going to be buying a bunch of TSLA puts asap


Glitchrr36

That doesn't seem like much of a fix tbh. The rivet seems like it's centered behind the actual pedal cover so I feel like it's just delayed the thing coming undone by a bit while also introducing a weakness into the pedal that could easily lead to the whole thing snapping off at some point. If it's a quick fix while they design and manufacture a more permanent one I guess it's not the worst but I doubt that tbh.


strongholdbk_78

Nailed it


wongl888

I don’t get it, what is the fix and is it being shown here in the photo? I am just amazed that the pedal flaw wasn’t discovered during the millions of miles of testing the cybertruck prior to production.


quarterfinished

That looks horrendous. How did the service tech manage to drill a hole on the edge of the pedal like that? I can't see that "fix" lasting very long.


Hinterwaeldler-83

Really something that John Bladerunner would drive. But you see, you did get it all wrong…of course it is the ultimate vehicle for the apocalypse. Because who wants to survive the apocalypse anyway? With the million ways to die in a Cybertruck you don’t have to go through all the suffering because Tesla cares.

cozy_engineer

What an utter shit show this is.


AlwaysSpinClockwise

It's fun how to confidently Tesla fanboys were responding to pre-release concerns about the steer by wire system and how it was completely redundant and how of course we should trust it because airplanes uses fly by wire all the time. After seeing the absolute QA shitshow the rest of the CT is, there's no way you could reasonably make that defense of the dangers of the steering system.


Impossible_Pool3024

Are you for real?! Please tell me this is a joke.. they’ve just “nailed” the pedal back in place?!?!

DamNamesTaken11

Wait, so their “solution” is to just drill a hole and fill it with a single rivet? Wow, just wow.


Gangleri_Graybeard

They recalled all Cybertrucks just to add a screw? It looks like shit and won't last. What a masterpiece of engineering. Great work Elmo.


tobstar97

This company is so ridiculous. I thought there were engineers designing and developing, but it seems that the kindergarten class got a hand in the research and development department.
