Thursday, June 4

Tesla said on Thursday it is recalling 63,619 Cybertrucks to address a software issue that makes the front parking lights too bright, potentially impairing the vision of oncoming drivers.

The company said it has already released an over-the-air software update to fix the problem at no cost for Cybertrucks built between November 13, 2023, and October 11, 2025.

Tesla identified the issue earlier this month during an internal review, after photometric tests confirmed the excessive brightness of the front lights. The automaker said there have been no reports of crashes, injuries, or fatalities linked to the problem.

The recall adds to a series of recent safety actions by the Elon Musk-led company. On Wednesday, Tesla also recalled nearly 13,000 Model 3 and Model Y vehicles due to a battery-pack component defect that could cause a loss of propulsion and increase the risk of a crash.

Earlier in October, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) opened an investigation into 2.88 million Tesla vehicles equipped with its Full Self-Driving system, following more than 50 reports of traffic-safety violations and multiple crashes.

Tesla reported record third-quarter revenue this week, surpassing Wall Street expectations as U.S. buyers accelerated electric vehicle purchases before a key federal tax credit expired. However, the company’s profit fell short of forecasts, citing higher tariffs, increased research costs, and declining income from regulatory credits — a trend expected to continue under new legislation enacted by the Trump administration.
