Symptoms
Owners of affected 2024 Tesla Cybertrucks might notice several symptoms related to the missing Tesla Cybertruck frunk seal.

If you suspect your 2024 Tesla Cybertruck is affected, a Tesla service technician can confirm the missing Tesla Cybertruck frunk seal during a routine check or a specific appointment for this concern.
Repair Procedure Summary
The repair for this issue involves the installation of the missing aero seal onto the frunk assembly. This is a straightforward procedure that a trained Tesla technician can perform. The seal is designed to fit precisely, restoring the intended aerodynamic and protective qualities of the frunk. This ensures proper sealing against environmental elements and reduces unwanted noise.

Recent owner reports about structure
purchased a pre-owned 2024 Tesla Cybertruck directly from Tesla and took delivery on October 1st, 2026. Before delivery, I noticed the tailgate would not latch properly.
Read owner complaints →The left sail applique was nearly disconnected from the vehicle, so I removed it the rest of the way manually before it could fly off while driving at speed. The right one is still a little loose, but doesn't seem to be in danger of flying off.
Complaints are owner reports filed with NHTSA. They are unverified, and counts depend on how many vehicles were sold, so they are not a failure rate.
