While testing a Cybertruck during the popular King of the Hammers off-road race weekend in California, Unplugged Performance, the popular shop that builds upgraded Teslas, encountered a surprise failure. According to the driver, Craig Coker, the truck suffered a broken steering bolt on its rear suspension. That might sound minor, but it prevented the steering wheel from staying straight when driving forward. That means Coker had one choice: drive in reverse. It took about an hour to traverse six miles of off-road trails before reaching camp for repairs.
