Tesla Cybertruck Gets Bricked & Locks Out Owner in the Middle of the Highway, Tesla Fans Say “He Should Have Left a Door Open”
A distressed Tesla Cybertruck owner from Missouri, Inger Brane, recently reached out to fellow Cybertruck owners online after his truck died, leaving him stranded in the middle of the road.
Not only that, Inger got out of his Cybertruck to assess the problem. Unfortunately, his truck became completely bricked at that time, making it impossible for him to reenter the vehicle.
Inger shared his predicament with the Cybertruck Owners Only group on Facebook.
Here is what he wrote…
“My truck just died in the middle of the road. No power, and I am locked out. How do I get back inside?”
It’s bad enough when a vehicle stops working in the middle of the road; however, being completely locked out and unable to access the inside is a whole another level of inconvenience.
Having said that, although the situation sounds bad, it could’ve gone even worse. If Inger had left his phone in his truck, he would have been unable to call for help, compounding his already unenviable situation.
In this respect, the Cybertruck owner should consider himself lucky.
Going back to Inger’s situation, the first thing people wanted to know was whether he had run his truck’s battery to zero.
However, the Cybertruck owner responded, “It was fully charged.”
At this point, most people would be unhappy with Tesla or the Cybertruck; however, fellow Cybertruck owners say it's Inger’s fault he found himself in this situation.
A Cybertruck owner, Williams Ainsley, writes, “Why didn’t you leave a door open? Shaking my head.”
I personally see this as victim blaming; however, please let me know what you think in the comments.
Going back to Inger’s case, so far, we’ve seen multiple Cybertruck owners who have faced catastrophic failures and most of these people end their statements claiming “they still love the truck.”
For example, a Cybertruck owner who snapped his rear subframe in half after he ran into a pothole says, “This is the most amazing truck ever.”
However, Inger appears to have had it with his truck. Responding to a group member who suggested possible ways he could get his Cybertruck to wake up, Inger responds, “Had it towed. What a pain.”
Overall, it’s surprising to see Cybertruck owners who have paid over $100,000 for their vehicles dealing with so many failures. Please let me know what should be done in the comments.
