According to the British media outlet, the Daily Mail, if a finger gets stuck in the Cybertruck’s door or trunk, it could cause a considerable risk of a severe accident.

Recently, numerous YouTubers have been conducting experiments by inserting objects similar to a finger, such as carrots and hotdogs, into the Cybertruck’s trunk or door opening. Viewers have been startled to see how easily carrots may be chopped in the videos.

The Cybertruck’s thin steel body panels on the outside make it so dangerous. Moreover, it lacks an anti-pinch sensor to prevent fingers from getting stuck, making it even more hazardous. Although the user manual contains a warning to “ensure all hands or objects are clear before closing the door,” consumers have called this “irresponsible.”

In addition, the Cybertruck has been under fire as various flaws have been discovered. There have been panel gaps in the vehicle, and recently, a recall was announced because the interior warning light was too small.
