After starting at the company as an intern, Awasthi became the product lead of the Cybertruckin September 2022, just over a year before it went on sale, per his LinkedIn profile. "This decision wasn't easy, especially with so much exciting growth on the horizon," he wrote in a Sunday post on the platform. "Tesla vehicles are incredibly complex systems that often don't get the credit they deserve."

The most I've ever heard of a car being recalled is probably 2014 Jeep Cherokee, or the 2021 Chevy Silverado. Both cars (if I'm not mistaken), were famous for hitting as many as 7-9 recalls, but Tesla 's Cybertruck is cruising past that number with its 12th recall since the car began rolling out to customers in November 2023. Issued just today, this latest round of recalls affects 6,197 vehicles, about 10 percent of all Cybertrucks sold.

Hyundai just issued two separate recalls on its Palisade and Ioniq 6 vehicles, totaling more than 600,000 cars that might not be road safe. The first recall, which constitutes the bulk of the total affected vehicles, is related to potentially faulty seat belts. The second is due to a defect on some electric models that could result in their charging port panels detaching on the road.

Ford Motor is recalling nearly 500,000 vehicles nationwide over a brake fluid leak. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued the safety notice noting a rear brake ruptured hose could cause fluid to leak, extending the distance required to stop the vehicle, thereby increasing the risk of a crash. This is the automaker's 105th recall of the year, a record for any automaker, which it happened to break in just the first six months of 2025.
