【Watch Good Girls Bad Girls (1984)】

It's been a bumpy road for the Cybertruck so far.

Tesla's newest electric vehicle was just released in November,Watch Good Girls Bad Girls (1984) but it has already facednumerous recalls. To top it off, the Cybertruck has become somewhat of a laughing stock on the internet, with social media users mocking owners of the truckwho post videos of the vehicle performing unimpressive tasks that pretty much every other truck can already do.

However, it does seem like there is somethingthat Tesla's Cybertruck can do better than other vehicles. The Cybertruck seems to have been succeeding at chopping off and crushing riders fingers,thanks to Tesla's questionable design choices for the vehicle.

Cybertruck incident reveals new way owners can lose their fingers

Fingers being crushed or severed via the Cybertruck is not a new phenomenon. Many Cybertruck owners have shared videosdemonstrating the problem with the trunk's detection system, which is supposed to prevent such a thing from happening. It doesn't always work, and as a result, the hatch closes and fingers get chopped and smashed.

The trunk issue was theway to lose a finger to the Cybertruck. Now, it's just away.

As first reported by The Drive, a Cybertruck owner posted in the Cybertruck Owner's Clubwebsite about how his father-in-law had to be taken to the emergency room and was "fortunate" to only need "seven stitches and a splint" after his finger "got closed inside the door gap between back and front doors."

This isn't a general "don't get your finger slammed in the car door" issue that can happen in any car either. Tesla designed the Cybertruck in a way that puts a rider's fingers in that area and that's what happened in this incident.

How did this happen?

The Cybertruck owner explained that to open the vehicle's doors, a rider must press a door release button on the pillar of the truck. As his father-in-law went to do this, the owner's son closed the rear door, and as a result, the father-in-law's finger got caught. 

The pillar buttons are displayed in the picture above, taken from the door section of the Tesla Cybertruck manual. The injured individual was going to press the button on the passenger sider door when the backseat door was closed on his finger.

"There is less than an inch between the button and the gap in the door," wrote the Cybertruck owner in the forum. "Someone not paying attention can easily get their finger trapped if the passenger behind the 'shotgun' position closes their door at the wrong time."

"I'm sharing this because I feel Cybertruck owners should be extra aware with multiple people entering and exiting the vehicle on the same side and may not be immediately familiar with where the open button is on the pillar," they explained. 

Tesla does provide a specific warningin its manual regarding potential issues with riders' hands being too close to the doors when they are being opened and close. However, the Cybertruck owner stated that the design could be "improved" for future Cybertrucks and that the pillar button should be "located sufficiently far away from the panel gap" to avoid this issue.

From the physical recall due to the acceleration pedal getting stuck to this new door release button issue, it's clear that there are some major flaws in the design of the Cybertruck.
