Cybertruck Owners Express Concerns About Corrosion and Vehicle Durability in Winter (Instagram @teslamotors)
A Cybertruck owner revealed that during the winter, he would prefer to drive his old gasoline car rather than his Tesla due to concerns about the road salt, which could corrode the truck.
On the Cybertruck Owners Club forum, he mentioned that while the salt should not cause holes in the Cybertruck’s stainless steel, it could stain it, and highlighted the risk of galvanic corrosion between aluminum and stainless steel.
The owner also suggested that the Cybertruck could be polished in the spring to remove any possible stains.
Other owners shared similar concerns, including one from Boston, who expressed surprise over whether the vehicle would be damaged over several winters. A local detailing specialist, who also owns a Cybertruck, reported that although they had seen stains on the model during the last winter, they were unable to remove them completely.
The Cybertruck manual, which has not yet been officially released by Tesla, suggests specific care for the vehicle’s exterior, such as immediate removal of corrosive substances to prevent damage.
This topic has sparked considerable online discussion, with Cybertruck owners debating the vehicle’s durability and its resistance to harsh winter conditions.
