What's wrong?
The drive inverter in a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck is part of the electric propulsion system. It takes power from the high voltage battery and controls the electrical current sent to the drive unit, which turns that power into movement at the wheels. When it works correctly, pedal input becomes controlled torque.
In the Cybertrucks covered by NHTSA campaign 24V832, the inverter uses MOSFET components, metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors, inside the power switching hardware. Tesla found an increased failure rate in this inverter group. When the inverter faults, the truck loses the ability to send drive power to the wheels, so pressing the accelerator no longer produces propulsion.
There is no warning sign before failure. Once the driver loses the ability to apply torque, the Cybertruck displays a visual alert on the user interface with an instruction to pull over safely.

What's the safety risk?
A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash. There is no warning sign before propulsion is lost. If the Cybertruck loses drive power, the driver gets a visual alert telling them to pull over safely. Repair is free at any franchised Tesla dealer.

What happens at the repair
At Tesla service, a Tesla technician replaces the drive inverter covered by the recall. The replacement is free, including parts and labor. Out-of-pocket inverter repairs already paid are handled through the new vehicle warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, because all affected vehicles remain under that warranty. If you have prior repair paperwork, ask Tesla service how the warranty coverage applies to that work.
