Some owners have claimed that their Cybertruck has muddy handprints across various parts of the car’s body and on its steel exterior.
Rushing the Trucks Out the Door?
Some analysts have theorized that Tesla is rushing these Cybertrucks out the door, especially because various delays have been seen in the delivery process thus far.

This may be why various owners are receiving their brand new Cybertrucks with protective film left on the bodywork and windows.
Dusty and Dirty Interiors
Other customers have had similar, yet different, experiences. For example, some Cybertruck owners have explained that when they received their car, they noticed muddy floors, as well as dusty interiors.

Meanwhile, others have noticed “unusual white streaks in the truck bed and a hazy coating on the windshield that obstructs the view.”
Cybertrucks Filled With Trash
That’s not all. Various owners have also reported that they’ve received their Cybertrucks — and these expensive EVs were filled with trash on the inside.

According to this customer, his truck appeared and he felt as if it looked as if someone had taken the truck “for a joyride before delivery.”
Why Is This Happening?
So far, Tesla hasn’t officially confirmed these stories, nor given a reason for why these instances seem to be continuing to occur.

Dozens of Tesla customers have reported that this has happened to them. This issue is ongoing, as it has at least been occurring for the last few months.
A Tricky Delivery Process
Some analysts and reporting have blamed Tesla’s difficult and stressful delivery process system.

Tesla reportedly uses various delivery centers that are tasked to clean and prep these new cars before they are delivered to their owners. Some of these delivery centers may not be accurately cleaning up the cars, which has resulted in some Tesla owners in the country having these negative experiences.
Confusion Over Cleaning the Truck
Some former employees have also stated that there has long been confusion over how the Cybertruck is supposed to be cleaned in the first place.

The truck also takes much longer to clean than other Teslas. For example, Tesla’s Model Y SUV takes about 45 minutes to fully detail, while the Cybertruck takes about two hours.
Tesla Owners Are Upset
Many Cybertruck owners are understandably upset that they’ve spent $100,000 for a brand-new car — only to have it dirty and trashed.

This news also comes after Tesla decided to get rid of its original pricing, as the company previously said the Cybertruck would be affordable and have an entry-level offering.
Cybertruck Issues Continue
Since its inception, Cybertrucks have gone through quite a lot of issues. Now that Cybertrucks are finally being delivered after much delay, these problems may continue.

After all, new owners have reported that they’ve seen rust spots on their brand-new electric pickup trucks already. Others have noted that their trucks have warping tailgates.
