Ok but this is not a continuous video, there is a cut to the article mid way so basically he just needs to make the start and end point point of the video in the segment he’s using to explain and than the loop is really smooth, that’s kinda silly to even treat this as a smooth transition. Also the transition wasn’t smooth. Unless this was sarcasm which I did not get 😅. Also you can use morph transition in the end of the video to make it more continuous.

I don't get why we have to insult early adopters instead of focusing on crappy companies and products. Someone has to buy the stuff first and it's not their fault that the product is crap
@@YunisRajab If you’re spending 100,000 on a car, yeah, you should know everything about the car. If you’re spending that kind of money, and you don’t thoroughly research the car, you are absolutely a smooth brain unless money is not object. And I’m not hating on people who were excited to buy one before we knew about the issues with them. That’s why I said “want one.” Or people that think they’re cool but don’t have any serious intention of buying one. The blame is of course of the company for making a bad product; however, if you research the product and find out that it’s bad, you share a large portion of that blame. That’s not controversial. If someone was selling a gadget that you knew didn’t work, it’s on you if you buy it.
@@YunisRajab I’ll go one step further: if you buy a product you know is crap, you are in part to blame for future products being crap since you’re incentivizing companies to make crap products. And if you didn’t research enough to know, you also share at least some small portion of the blame since you’re allowing companies to get by without investigating their products.
I saw this car in the Tesla showroom in Canada, I have no intention of buying a Tesla but we were shopping around for a car and the Tesla dealership was in the same auto-mall. Out of curiosity, I walked in and asked about it. I then asked how much will this be at MSRP in Canada and he said "oh this is just for show, we can't sell this in canada". goes to show how unsafe this car is because Canada and U.S laws are relatively similar. If you can sell a car in U.S, more than likely you can sell the same car in Canada. But not the Cybertruck and I found that hilarious.
Has nothing to do with safety or anything in regards to cyber truck, has to do with some bogus regulation about protruding edges in Europe. Canada they just have to wrap up "paperwork" so the company said. So 2025 they expect cyber truck to be in Canada. The fact of the matter is, you can love to share it, but a semi on the road is far more unsafe than a cyber truck.
@@JayGalatica the "bogus" rules in Europe are pedestrian safery regulations. If someone's accelerator pedal sticks and you end up hitting a crowd of pedestrians, the cybertruck is basically built to kill pedestrians. Flat face, sharp corners, massive blind spots, the thing is a hazard. But I'm sure pedestrian safety is less of a concern to you than getting to drive around in the EV equivalent of a brick with razor blades on the edges
@@Ayumi649 Eh... I don't understand the response you guys had! I withheld my judgement of the thing until release, as I had a bad feeling about it but I want to be fair. And now I have seen and been in one in-person... No.... I don't think it looks good at all. It looks very basic, kinda half-assed and very ugly imo. It's safety issues are a problem too, thing is dangerous just being physically near when it isn't moving! So many sharp ends... what were the designers thinking... it's dangerous. No, like legit REALLY dangerous. Wish I had Musk's contacts in governments, idk how he got this thing approved. I guess cause it is an EV it can ignore so many other safety measures or something.......
@@Umega101 I don't hate him. He's just a dangerous conman who makes people's lives worse for his gain. I think he should be in jail, with Elizabeth Homes.
@Ayumi649 in february my family saw two cybertrucks from california side by side in alaska, i took a photo, and a week ago my dad asked me to send him the photos because there was a group of ppl bragging about seeing one of these monstrosities, and he wanted to brag that we saw two side by side
You CANNOT have any loose objects of ANY KIND in the foot area. Obstructions to braking or acceleration is absolutely dangerous. Even water bottles people leave down there is dangerous.
@@DodgerFloof To an extent. The only way to get the right angle to wedge the loosened pedal is to fully depress it while also pushing it up, so I would hope that only happens with intent in situations like overtaking or on the track. Anyone doing that would only be caught off guard by the vehicle not slowing down after letting off of the pedal, causing them to go for the brakes out of habit or training, canceling the acceleration.
I was in a vehicle the accelerator got stuck once.... Full brakes on... We took a 90° turn at about 40 mph..... Late 70s Chevy suburban . Happened to one of my vehicles as well in the 90s... Isuzu trooper. On that one a small plastic fitting on the end of the throttle cable got tacky with age... Stuck to the throttle cable... And when you release the pedal the the cable got stuck by pulling that tacky piece into the cable tube There's a lot of knowledge that goes into building a trouble-free vehicle that new manufacturers simply do not have.... Existing manufacturers learned through the School of hard knocks over 70 years
Is there something wrong with you guys? Literally so many reels have good loops like this. You just cut the video and put the end of it at the beginning. Takes no effort and no skill
There are a lot of things that are scary about this issue. But one thing that many people are overlooking is that "unapproved changes" are happening in the manufacturing of Tesla cars. That's scary. Who is deciding these changes? How often is it happening? How many other "unapproved changes" do we not know about, that Tesla does not know about, and what are the consequences of these "unapproved changes?" This is a very scary way to run a car company.
100% right. From what I've heard about working in one of Musk's companies and the ambition of this car. I bet a lot of corners have been cut or rushed. Everyone keeps forgetting Tesla is a company building cars, not software
And with all the power and acceleration + a very heavy vehicle, imagine if this happens in a parking lot, that truck will have smashed in to several rows of vehicles before getting stopped with a very high likelihood of someone getting in the way.
I think the "unapproved changes" tried to be some sort of excuse for an issue which was there from the beginning. But as you said, this is even worse than admitting a fault from the beginning
@@murdoch9106 tbf you would have to give full throttle once for it to get stuck in this position which hopefully no one does in a parking lot in the first place...
Also reality; it’s can’t withstand damage like a tank 😂 Also reality: it rusts easily, has panel gaps, and will get bricked if you go through a car wash without putting it in “car wash mode”
I immediately thought of the picture of the cybertruck getting stuck on a ledge. I initially thought the driver was stupid thinking their truck is invincible but now I think their excellerator must have gotten stuck. I hope no one is harmed by this.
As far as I can tell, they don't have much in the way of vehicle safety laws in the US. They even let people who get pulled over with no licence/insurance and registration off to go do it again with little to no repercussions.
It's almost like there should be a series of known possible problems to take into account when engineering a 2ton hammer, could call it a safety test checklist of something.
The engineers at Tesla are the lowest paid in the industry 80k starting. So that’s why you see so many problems. So many parts and adhesives like you see here are constantly being switched out because they went with the cheapest products at first. I use to work at a Tesla repair shop and we had plenty of paper weights and door jams that came straight off a new Tesla because they were already bent or broken and needed to be replaced.
@@ettcha But it also only happened after 4K sold. Imagine if it were like Toyota where they sell tens of thousands of anything in a month. Plus Tesla only makes 5 models. Makes it way less likely things could happen.
@@ettcha And if it was just this one safety issue, I'd be inclined to agree that this is overplayed. But the Cybertruck rollout is just a shitshow of another caliber, even for Tesla.
@@Dreadpirateflappy doesn't matter if a company is 120 years old or 10, as someone who has grown up with and currently owns one, nothing beats continuous recalls like Ford does. My Fusion still has that airbag recall that I'm refusing to take to the dealerships for them to mess up my car even more, so if I die, I die.🤷♂️
@@fxzn Sure here you go: Scam "a dishonest scheme; a fraud:" At reveal the CyberTruck was meant to cost $21,000-$39,000 yet at release that ballooned to $60,000-$100,000. In real world conditions they get 50 freedumb units less range than advertised. You cant wash the car in the sun, and it breaks if you don't have it in the right mode when going through a car wash. You also need to avoid getting it wet in general as it gets rusty. Numerous customers have had their cars stop working within days with others making it barely a few km before the car gives up. Then there's all the design flaws, the lack of crumple zone puts those in the CyberTruck and whatever they hit at increased risk of injury. that leads onto the fact that it's covered in sharp edges and it's only a matter of time before it slices a pedestrian. Some of those sharp panels are held down by double sided tape. There's plenty more but this comment is already way too long.
Wow. That is a serious issue. I know that the first Cybertrucks are effectively a beta test and yada yada yada but this is some class action level terribleness right there.
you don't get to sue a manufacturer over hypotheticals, them issuing a recall is literally them doing their due diligence. There's no sin or crime in a minor manufacturing defect, the sin or crime would lie in not fixing it
Man, imagine suviving the initial sinking in a pocket in the stern and on the way down, hearing the creaking and crunching as the pressure built, just to have your compartment implode. Oof.
Tis important, but still very dangerous if you don't realize what's going on. It accelerates so fast that you can get into trouble very quickly. I had a similar issue in my car. Not exactly the same, but my cruise control normally shuts off when I tap either pedal, if I brake or accelerate cruise control shuts off till I press it again. One time it didn't, it temporarily shut off cruise control when I applied the breaks, decelerated from 120km/h to 40km/h when entering a small town on a highway - when I let off the break, cruise control resumed unexpectedly and tried to accelerate to the previously set speed. I drive a manual, so it couldn't accelerate that fast and didn't pose any safety risks. But if I was driving an automatic or electric, that random unexpected acceleration could have been dangerous. For this to happen in a cybertruck it would be much more dangerous. First, to be fair, to get stuck in such a position you need to put the pedal all the way to the floor in the first place which does limit where it might happen - merging onto the highway or something similar, unlikely in a residential zone. If this happens and you apply the brakes, sure it'll over ride it - but as soon as you let off the brakes, it will unexpectedly accelerate insanely fast. It's a lot safer than not doing that, yes. But that secondary max acceleration after you thought you had it under control would still be incredibly dangerous.

@@alexleblanc6364I’d personally pick a European brand. Particularly German. They’re safe, luxury, and the same price point. Plus, they have so much more experience on the whole car production front that anything they build will be better than what Tesla can do by a landslide.
A bolt and a nut would be all thats needed to prevent this design issue. I wonder why they chose to glue it together instead, its not like it would ruin the cars design/ theme. It would fit right in with all that unpainted steel.
I remember when Toyota had a “similar” failure with the accelerator petals on select 2009-2012 models (2011 was the technical last affected year but there were some stray 2012’s that were covered in a dealer letter) caused by a malfunction in the drive by wire system as well as format placements. certainly something that has happened before but it definitely makes you wonder, why isn’t this something that has more QC checks? majority of the control modules and PWM throttles were merely having issues binding that a fresh gasket would fix or a spritz of SilGlyde. blows my mind it was the adhesive they used alone that failed, screws or rivets on the backplate should’ve been standard
Tesla has been around for over a decade and made an suv that couldn’t roll over, yet they can’t fit an accelerator pedal. They aren’t a startup company anymore.
@@airbagsagain Toyota has been around from the 70's in the US. They still have safety recalls. Dont be a biased f@@#. I can understand people not liking Elon, but Tesla is company with a lot of employees.
@@gamernerd7139 1st: Tesla can make a safe car. I acknowledged that with the Model X that broke the highway rollover test by not being able to roll over. 2nd: if I had a family member die in a toyota, I wouldn't go "at least they weren't driving a tesla". I'd be pissed if it was due to negligence from toyota. The sticking pedal is a safety issue due to bad design, cost cutting, and poor build quality. Toyota also had an issue where they put tekata airbags in all their vehicles, that would fire shrapnel towards the occupants in an accident and hurt them. TLDR: Companies make mistakes. And mistakes that can kill people shouldn't be treated with bias. But in response to this specific video, "but Tesla is company with a lot of employees" is a shitty excuse to the owners who may have to deal with an out of control vehicle. That shit isn't fun, and I hope you never have to experience it in your lifetime.
@@gamernerd7139iv never seen Toyota recall the entire stock of onw of its models because they just fundamentally used like fucking blu tack to stick on the throttle.
@@Oscillutical Depends what you are driving. Corolla rear-ends a schoolbus at max speed, most passengers likely live. Cybertruck, many more deaths. Head on collision vs a sedan, yeah, you are dead regardless of if a truck or car hits you at those speeds
@@Artyomthewalrus So you have been a safety engineer who has been doing such tests? If I had your gift at vehicle dynamics guessing I would have cashed in on that.
@@gamernerd7139 Seriously? Basic physics. Cybertruck has 2x more mass and thus kinetic energy. Has a higher front end. Corolla's front end is lower than the school bus's rear bumper, so it would crumple underneath the bus. Cybertruck would make full contact with the rear of the bus - with twice the kinetic force. And likely the truck would crumple less and absorb less impact. Cybertruck will likely impart around 3x the force and in a much worse location. In what world would they impart the same damage and cause the same loss of life? A school bus has around 10x the mass of a corolla. School Busses have an extremely solid body on frame construction - and they are designed to crumple whatever hits them. Ask anybody who graduated elementary physics what will cause more damage and loss of life in such a scenario.
That is actually insane and as long as nobody is in front of you on a straight road, the brakes will stop it and I guess you would have to keep your foot on the brake while getting it unstuck. With EVs and normal traffic flow, there's a good chance you'd hit somehing at extreme speeds before getting to the drive pedal and the drive pedal overrides any safety features by design that would have stopped a car from a collision since there are times where driving around is safer than hard braking.
I believe the idea was debunked years ago, that you couldn't stop the vehicle if the accelerator pedal got stuck. Hitting the brake on gas and electric cars will make it stop. Turns out people who thought they were hitting the brake (including that unfortunate driver in the viral 911 call) were most likely confusing the pedals in their understandable panic
Depending on the circumstances and the vehicle it's possible for the brake to fail in that situation, but because of the way EV control systems work the brake is also in input that controls the electric motors so it should be configured to directly command the car to stop accelerating, whereas in ICE the engine is going to wind up fighting the brakes to at least some extent
@@bosstowndynamics5488 That's the theory I'm takling about; I believe it was Car and Driver who did a test on a bunch of vehicles trying to recreate what you're describing, and in every situation the car just stops like normal. Essentially no one's been able to replicate this idea in real life
@@bosstowndynamics5488Due to a nice little invention called the servo-assisted hydraulic disc braking system, all cars are required with brakes that are capable of bringing the vehicle to a complete stop _even if_ the engine is pinned at maximum RPM. The car will stop, and (if still in gear) the engine will stall.
@@BrendonGreenNZL I'll take your word for it that all cars are fitted with brakes that can beat the engine, but most cars use vacuum assisted brakes rather than servo assisted, and even today drum brakes aren't unheard of, at least on the rear axle, so disc brakes aren't completely universal either.
Imagine any other car maker comming out with this thing. Everybody would have tear it to shreeds, but because is a tesla, people are ok with this barn build.
