In recent days, several posters have appeared on forums dedicated to the Tesla Cybertruck announcing that upcoming deliveries will be delayed or cancelled.
Some people complained that the gas pedal stuck.
Tesla has no media relations department and often withholds important news from the public.
But on Saturday, prominent Tesla influencer @wholemarsblog wrote on Elon Musk's X that “Tesla has suspended all Cybertruck deliveries for 7 days due to gas pedal issue.”

A relatively large number of early-delivery Cybertrucks can break down and require repair after just a few miles.
Late Friday, Tesla lowered its supervised full self-driving subscription price from $199 to $99 per month. At a lower rate, it would take 10 years for FSD's purchase price to reach his current $12,000.
Shares fell 2% to 171.05 in stock market trading on Friday. TSLA stock rose 3.7% for the week, boosted by Musk's promise to unveil robotaxis on August 8th.
