2024 Tesla Cybertruck electrical complaints
Page 2 of 3: complaints 11 to 40 of 56, newest first, as owners wrote them.
My Tesla Cybertruck has experienced a failure of the Power Conversion System (PCS), which prevents the vehicle from charging at home using the installed residential charging equipment. Tesla diagnosed the issue and advised that the required replacement part is unavailable, with no estimated date for repair. As a result, I have been forced to rely exclusively on public Superchargers for several months. While Tesla has provided free Supercharging, this does not restore the vehicle’s intended functionality and requires significant additional travel, waiting time, and disruption to my daily activities and business operations. The vehicle was purchased and represented as capable of convenient home charging, and the prolonged inability to repair a critical charging system due to parts unavailability substantially impairs its use, value, and practicality. I am submitting this complaint because Tesla has been unable to provide a repair timeline, and I am concerned that other owners may be experiencing similar failures and extended delays in obtaining repairs. The offered loaner vehicle is a Tesla Model Y, which is not comparable to a Cybertruck and does not meet the hauling and cargo needs associated with my business operations.
My vehicle achieves only 80-100 miles of real-world range per charge, requiring charging to 100% to reach even this reduced figure. On April 30, 2026 at 11:08 PM, I documented energy consumption of 460.8 Wh/mi — 37% worse than the specification required to achieve Tesla's advertised range of 318-340 miles. Component: High voltage battery / power distribution system. Safety risk: Severe undisclosed range reduction means the vehicle may reach 0% charge in locations and at times the driver does not anticipate based on advertised specifications, creating stranding and safety risks. Manufacturer response: Raised on May 21, 2026 recorded call with Tesla corporate. Tesla acknowledged the issue and said to discuss at service — but all service appointments have been cancelled since December 2025.
All vehicle cameras failed simultaneously on May 12, 2026 at approximately 4:41 PM. Tesla app displayed "Cameras Unavailable — Please try again later." All camera-dependent systems were completely inoperable: Autopilot, FSD, Sentry Mode, dashcam/TeslaCam. Component failed: Entire forward and perimeter camera system. Vehicle available for inspection at Tesla Tallahassee Service Center. Safety risk: Vehicle cannot safely operate driver assistance systems with all cameras dead. Total loss of rear/side visibility systems while driving. No warning prior to failure. Manufacturer response: Tesla Pensacola general manager intentionally cancelled 8 consecutive service appointments — confirmed on recorded Tesla corporate call May 29, 2026. Owner drove 2.5 hours to one appointment and the GM rescheduled it without any notice. Tesla corporate agent confirmed on record: "You shouldn't have to travel to a service center that's over 100 miles away when you have one that's close to you." As of May 29, 2026 vehicle is at Tallahassee SC — Tesla refusing to provide a loaner or complete repairs. Owner has been without vehicle 24-48 hours despite being promised a loaner at time of tow. Prior warning: TeslaCam left-repeater camera failure events auto-saved December 15, 2025 — system was already failing 5 months prior to total failure. Was defect reproduced by dealer: No — Tesla refused to inspect despite 8 cancelled appointments.
Pcs2 failure
PCS2 failed. Unable to AC charge. Afraid supercharging will go out next. Lots of errors on dash. Tesla says will take months for the part to come in, because thousands of others are failing, potentially stranding drivers.
In July of 2025, I drive my vehicle on a 130 mile trip. About 25 miles into the drive, I started receiving errors about AC charging not available. I stopped at a Tesla supercharger Hannibal [XXX] but I couldn’t charge it there either. Drive it the rest of the way to my destination where I had an ac charger available. Tried there but I couldn’t charge there either. Tried resetting the car…still couldn’t charge. Opened service ticket. Tesla had to send a tow vehicle 110 miles to me and then tire the truck back to the service center in [XXX] . they had to keep the car 3 days and replaced the pcs system.

AC power system failure. Can no longer charge car from home AC power (free), must use commercial charging station (pay).
PCS component in my car has degraded, I could charge at 36A earlier but now the charger only charges at 24A. This is line with large number of PCS failures reported by other users and their failed components being replaced by Tesla. However they returned mine saying they could not replicate it!
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.
Pcs2 board replaced. Charging was limited to 24amp. Replaced under warranty but a lot of trucks are experiencing this so I am reporting
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
PCS2_a094 error PCS2_a095 error PCS2_a137 error Known issue. PCS system failing. Vehicle slows down charging and then stops charging completely. Service scheduled for 2 months away.
The PCS unit failed and the truck would not charge at all. Tesla repaired under warranty.
Can’t charge at home and must drive across town to charge. Part is unavailable for over two months they said.
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.
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.
Unexpected PCS2 failure and loss of AC charging. This unable to charge battery where supercharger is not available. Risks of being stranded. Limits current use. Repair unavailable and no estimated time per service center!
Will not charge at 48 volts has been reduced to 24 volts. PCS failure. This is a widespread issue and apparently known by Tesla which currently has a parts shortage
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.
Faulty PCS system can cause car to stop charging, potentially causing vehicle to shut down on the highway, leaving it stranded and a hazard on the road.
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.
The contact owns a 2024 Tesla Cybertruck. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the sideview mirrors struck a pedestrian. Additionally, the sideview mirrors struck barriers and other objects while driving. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to detect or recognize when an object was struck and continued operating. The dealer was notified of the failure, but the vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 28,000.
Pcs failure. Will not charge
Vehicle stopped AC and DC charging. This could get anybody stranded. Seems to be a wide spread issues online. PCS2
My Cybertruck’s Power Conversion System failed at ~65,000 miles. I received a PCS alert, AC charging became unavailable, and the vehicle displayed charging faults. The repair required major disassembly of the tonneau, bed, and air suspension and cost $7000 because it occurred after warranty. Why This Is a Safety Defect: The PCS is a critical component that handles onboard AC charging, DC-DC conversion to the 48V system, and power delivery. Failure can strand drivers, prevent charging, and (as seen in related drive-inverter recalls) contribute to sudden loss of propulsion while driving. This Is a Widespread Issue: PCS failures are occurring frequently (“left and right”) in Cybertrucks, especially early production models. Owner forums and polls show dozens of identical failures, with some samples reporting 18–40% affected. Many owners face $2,000–$7,000 repairs out of warranty. Tesla issued a limited recall for related drive inverters (the federal safety agency Campaign 24V‑832) that can cause sudden power loss, but no recall covers the broader PCS defect despite the clear pattern. I strongly urge the federal safety agency to investigate this common defect immediately and require Tesla to issue a full recall for affected Cybertrucks, including free replacement of the Power Conversion System for all owners. Thank you for protecting public safety.
My 2024 Tesla Cybertruck (purchased May 2024, approximately 7,500 miles) experienced a complete AC charging system failure with no prior warning on March 27, 2026. Upon entering the vehicle, two active fault codes were present on the touchscreen: PCS2_a094 (AC Charging unavailable) and PCS2_a095 (Powershare unavailable). The vehicle was at 17% state of charge with no ability to charge via AC. Three full system reboots were performed with no change to the fault codes or charging ability. The onboard charger (PCS2 module) has failed completely. Tesla roadside assistance instructed me to drive the vehicle to the [XXX] service center — a location the vehicle could not safely reach given its state of charge and inability to charge en route. This represents a safety concern as the vehicle was effectively stranded with no viable path to charging or service without third-party transport. The vehicle is well within its warranty period (basic 4yr/50k, battery 8yr/150k) and a service appointment has been opened with Tesla. This failure occurred with no warning from the vehicle's monitoring systems or Tesla app prior to the fault appearing. A vehicle at low state of charge with a fully inoperative charging system and no prior alert represents a genuine safety risk to owners, particularly in situations where alternative transportation is unavailable. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
at 46,500 miles, my AC charging dropped from the usual 48amps, down to 24amps. Then 2 days after this, my AC charging failed. This happened on 3/22/2026. I am unable to AC charge, but CAN DC charge. This is indicative of a PCS2 board failure, and this has been happening to a LOT of cybertrucks recently. It will be replaced under warranty (I hope) but so, so many vehicles are affected and there is no recall that I've heard of. It should be a recall. Thank you
Normal night charging . Morning I get into my car I have alerts PCS2 saying I can't charge anymore at home . This is a huge safety concern as it's happened to many Cybertruck owners. If we go on a trip we can literally be stranded due to range and accessibility of chargers with kids. This needs to be fixed as a constant warranty even past 50,000 miles as the vehicle is not proven and in its early years. It's not a matter of if , it's when and creates unreliability and extremely heavy repair costs for an owner not due to personal wear and tear. Clearly a manufacture recall that should be monitored for a long long time.
PCS2_a094 AC Charging unavailable® This warning creates a situation of not be able to charge at all. Requiring a tow. I’ve was stranded with no way to charge. Had to leave my wife and kids cause I didn’t have enough charge to get them and get the truck back to a service center and another vehicle to get them home. Truck only a year old and 37k miles. Multiple owners reporting the same issue at a cost of $7k to replace PCS unit. Fail around 30k miles and then screwed once it’s out of warranty.
