Loren Torres: Tesla is issuing yet another recall for the Cybertruck. More than 46,000 vehicles are being called back due to an issue with one of the truck’s exterior panels.
The cant rail — which is a stainless steel panel on the exterior of the truck — could detach while driving. Tesla says it will replace the panel free of charge. This marks the seventh recall since the Cybertruck was first delivered to customers.
The futuristic-looking vehicle, which starts at an $80,000 selling price, has had many issues, even after its final delivery was delayed by two years.

It has already faced at least four safety probes by NHTSA, including a look at a so-called premium autonomous driving feature that may have trouble identifying items on the road during times of low visibility.
However, a bright spot for the Cybertruck has been its safety rating. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration gave it a 5-star rating for frontal and side crash tests.
That’ll do it for your daily briefing. From New York City, I’m Loren Torres with TheStreet.
