Repair History

2024 Tesla Cybertruck Repair History: What the Repair Orders Show

Visit 1: February 19 - 26, 2025 (8 Days)

  • The vehicle was brought in due to squeaking sounds coming from the dashboard during acceleration, turning, and upward movements.
  • Technicians traced the noise to a rubbing brace under the windshield and performed repairs that involved removing and reinstalling the frunk assembly, closure panels, front wheel liner, headliner trim, and A-pillar upper trim.
  • No loaner was provided.

Visit 2: April 1, 2025 (1 Day)

  • The front camera had a persistent blurred area that remained after cleaning.
  • Technicians suspected a cropping issue related to firmware version 2025.2.9; no physical repairs were made as the problem appeared resolved with firmware 2025.8.4.
  • The owner was educated on the matter, and no further service was performed.

Visit 3: June 9, 2025

  • Present (43+ Days) - According to the owner, the vehicle developed another squeaking noise while driving over uneven surfaces, now suspected to be suspension-related, with the technicians unsure if the noise is coming from the suspension or the chassis.
  • Technicians reportedly disassembled and reassembled the vehicle and replaced parts, although no official repair order has been provided yet.
  • A loaner vehicle was issued during this extended repair period.
Legal Analysis

Can a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck Be a Lemon in Texas?

Texas Lemon Law (Tex. Occ. Code §2301.601 to §2301.613) covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Texas for personal, family, or household use (also covers towable recreational vehicles).

  • Repair attempts: 4 repair attempts for the same defect (or 2 for serious safety defects)
  • Days out of service: 30 cumulative days
  • Remedies: Replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset)
  • Attorney fees: No - the Texas Lemon Law has no attorney-fee provision; a consumer who wins the TxDMV case gets the $35 filing fee back from the manufacturer (Tex. Occ. Code §2301.712(b))
This case: Across 3 repair visits, the Cybertruck spent 52 days out of service. The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act also applies to written warranties nationwide. Our client paid $0 out of pocket†.

Common Questions

2024 Tesla Cybertruck Lemon Law Questions in Texas

How does Texas lemon law apply to a Tesla Cybertruck?
The Texas Lemon Law (Tex. Occ. Code §2301.601 to §2301.613) uses a standard of 4 repair attempts for the same defect (or 2 for serious safety defects), or 30 cumulative days out of service. Remedies: Replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). Written warranties are also covered nationwide by the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.
What was the settlement amount for this 2024 Tesla Cybertruck?
A vehicle buyback totaling $91,645. Part went to our client and the rest covered attorney fees, which the manufacturer paid. Results may vary. Prior outcomes do not guarantee a similar result.
How is a buyback different from cash and keep?
With a buyback, the manufacturer takes the vehicle back, pays off the loan or lease and refunds the owner, minus any use allowance the state allows. With cash and keep, the owner keeps the vehicle and gets a cash payment.
What does it cost to bring a Tesla lemon law claim with Easy Lemon?
There is no upfront fee. Lemon law fee-shifting statutes generally make the manufacturer pay the attorney fees. Our client in this case paid nothing out of pocket†.
