ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I have had a PCS2 charging failure for months now and Tesla has not fixed it. The truck is currently only charging at 24a instead of 48a. If this continues to fail the truck will not be able to charge at all.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The PCS module failed in the vehicle, not allowing me to charge the vehicle at home. I can still use it at Superchargers, but the AC charging at my house no longer works and the power share function of the truck also no longer works. There seems to be a widespread issue as in all the forms in groups. I’m in thousands of people have had this problem recently with no rhyme or reason to year make model or miles

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The main FSD computer has given me a fault which probably necessitates replacement of the main computer at a cost of $3250. Car is 2024 and is just out of warranty with 52,000 miles within the last month. Tesla states they will not cover. Safety features are "not available", per the warning on my dash.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I have fell victim to the now infamous PCS failure. My truck stopped being able to charge from home, and Tesla requires me to use their Supercharging system in order to drive it. I was actually around the truck when it failed and could smell a potent odor of electrical smoke coming from outside the vehicle. I have observed the same odor every time I’ve charged it since. Tesla will not accept the vehicle at their service center because they are back ordered on the part by over eight weeks.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
My 2025 Tesla Cybertruck AWD (VIN: [XXX] ) was returned to me after the first service visit (Invoice XXX Tesla Palo Alto, 8/22/2025) with the Pedestrian Warning System (PWS) speaker disconnected. The disconnection occurred during front-end service work at that visit, which included front fascia inspection and removal. The technician did not reconnect the PWS speaker before returning the vehicle. The disconnection was not discovered until the second service visit (Invoice XXX, Tesla Palo Alto, 9/18/2025), at which point Tesla's own invoice documented: "The issue was caused by a disconnected front pedestrian warning speaker. Technician reconnected the front pedestrian warning speaker to resolve the issue." The [XXX] s therefore operated with a disconnected PWS for approximately 4 weeks — from August 22 to September 18, 2025 — without my knowledge. During this entire period, the vehicle was not emitting the required audible low-speed alert. The PWS emits an audible alert at low speeds to warn pedestrians, cyclists, and visually impaired individuals of the vehicle's approach. This system is required under FMVSS 141 (Minimum Sound Requirements for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles). This is a service-inflicted deactivation of a federally-required pedestrian safety system. The deactivation was caused by Tesla's Palo Alto service center (4180 El Camino Real, Palo Alto, CA 94306) during routine warranty repair work. The vehicle was returned to me without disclosure of the disconnection. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

SEAT BELTS, SEATS, AIR BAGS
My 2025 Tesla Cybertruck AWD (VIN: [XXX] ) has a recurring failure of the right rear seat occupant detection system, which governs airbag deployment and is certified by Tesla to meet FMVSS 208. The same alert (internal code RCM2_a698) persisted through two official repairs at Tesla Palo Alto: 1st repair (Invoice XXX, 8/22/2025): seat belt buckle replaced. Alert recurred 2 days later, August 24, 2025. 2nd repair (Invoice XXX, 9/18/2025): harness assembly replaced. Tesla then performed a Visual Quality Check, recording in the invoice: "Technician performed a visual quality check to ensure its condition meets our standards." Vehicle returned as repaired. Relying on Tesla's written certification, I reinstalled my [XXX] son's car seat in that position. He rode there daily for approximately 7 months (September 2025 - April 2026). On April 21, 2026, I tested the seat and found the sensor still actively failing - unable to detect an adult occupant. My spouse witnessed this. I have 30-second video. Alert RCM2_a698 remains active in Tesla's systems today, confirmed by screenshot. This is my family's only vehicle. My wife currently uses the right rear seat. Airbag deployment for that seat cannot be relied upon. Tesla has been notified and has not resolved this issue.

LANE DEPARTURE: BLIND SPOT DETECTION, BACK OVER PREVENTION: REARVIEW SYSTEM BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
The failed components include the Tesla Vision system (cameras), sensors, Active Safety Control Module (AEB), and Gear Selection UI. Symptoms first appeared on April 30, 2026, including black screens and "Autopilot Unavailable" alerts. Internal vehicle logs from Apr 30 to May 02 confirm persistent "SNA" (Signal Not Available) and "UNAVAILABLE" states for these critical safety modules well before the collision. On the day of the accident (May 02), the logs recorded 25 instances of Gear UI signal loss, which completely disabled the rearview camera and proximity alerts while reversing. This total "blind" state put my safety at extreme risk as I had zero visibility of blind spots and received no audible warnings. The Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) was also recorded as "UNAVAILABLE," failing to prevent the collision. The problem is scientifically confirmed by the vehicle's internal diagnostic logs, which I have retrieved and am ready to provide for inspection. The accident has been reported to the local police and Progressive Insurance. I am currently coordinating with Tesla Service for a formal inspection of these software and hardware defects.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
A widespread defect in the Cybertruck's Power Conversion System (PCS) completely disables home/AC charging. Replacement parts are on national backorder. The Power Conversion System (PCS) manages all alternating-current (AC) power flowing into the battery. I began receiving an error code, PCS2_a095, which indicates a failure in the Power Conversion System (PCS) of a Tesla Cybertruck, causing "AC Charging inability to charge at home, effectively bricking the vehicle for daily convenient use.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The new tesla update forces me to interact with the touch screen in order to operate my vehicle after self driving is disabled. There is no way to dismiss or disable this screen in the new update and no way for me to roll my vehicle back to the old software. After disengaging self driving a forced selector box forces you to make one of 4 choices in order to see your screen/navigation and perform other features in the car such as adjusting the windshield wipers. There is no way to disable this screen, it pops up every single time Full Self Driving is disengaged and there is no way to disable it. I believe this actively violates california law by requiring me to interact with the touch screen while actively controlling the vehicle on manual mode. I tried clicking elsewhere on the screen but yuo are forced to select one of the four options presented

This error code (PCS2_a103_IsoTempSensorIrrational) is from a Tesla Cybertruck. It relates to the Power Conversion System (PCS2), which handles AC charging, PowerShare (vehicle-to-load/home), and other power conversion functions. My Cybertruck will likely be affected in the future by charging issues related to PCS. I understand this is a common issue with Cybertruck within my VIN range. I request this issue be investigated and a recall done prior to being affected.
