A case of theft from a Tesla Cybertruck in Atlanta has raised doubts about the reliability and safety of the electric pickup truck. The owner discovered that the “impenetrable” window was easily broken, and the security system did not respond to the break-in.
Cybertruck Vulnerability
Surprise Theft
Tesla Cybertruck owner from Atlanta, Georgia was faced with an unpleasant surprise. His electric pickup truck, which was considered reliable and secure, turned out to be an easy target for a robber.
Silent Security System
Anuj Thakkar, the owner of the car, was shocked that the high-tech Cybertruck did not react to the hack. “No siren, no notifications on the phone... absolutely nothing happened, I just found it in this state,” he shared on Facebook.
Video evidence of incident
video from the Cybertruck camera recorded the moment of the theft. A red Nissan Altima stopped nearby, the passenger broke the window of the electric pickup truck, quickly removed his backpack and disappeared.
Frustration with "impenetrability"
The Internet community expressed bewilderment at how easy it was to break into a car advertised as super safe. I was especially surprised that the glass, declared as “impenetrable,” turned out to be so fragile.
Comparison with competitors
Jalopnik journalist Andy Kalmowitz wryly noted: "I can confidently say that the Altima's alarm would have gone off if if the roles were reversed." The remark highlights an unexpected vulnerability in the Cybertruck's vaunted security system.

Wow, this is definitely a shock! 😱 I thought the Cybertruck was an impregnable fortress on wheels. But it turns out that it can be hacked like a regular car. I wonder what Tesla will say about this?
Hans
Yeah, it's an awkward situation for Tesla. 🤔 But let's not rush to conclusions. Perhaps this is an isolated case or a problem with the settings of a particular car. Need more information.
Marie
Hans, you're right, we need more data. But it’s still strange that a machine with such technology did not react to an obvious hack. Maybe Tesla should reconsider its safety systems? 🔒
Carlos
I agree with Marie. Tesla needs to address this issue urgently. After all, safety is a key factor when choosing a car. And here is such a failure... 😕
Giovanni
Pfft, another Tesla hype. All these fancy electric cars are a waste of money. My good old Fiat has never let me down, and not a single thief has set its sights on it in 20 years. This is what I understand - reliability! 😤
Olivia
Giovanni, I understand your attachment to the classics, but progress cannot be stopped. Electric cars are the future. And security problems can be solved. The main thing is that the manufacturer listens to users. 🌿
Anastasia
But it seems to me that this is not just about Tesla. Criminals also do not sleep and develop. Maybe they have some new hacking technologies? 🕵️♀️ In any case, this is a signal to all automakers to strengthen their protection.
Hans
Anastasia, great point! 👍 Indeed, we need to look at the problem more broadly. Maybe this is a reason to create some new safety standard in the auto industry? It would be great if manufacturers joined forces in this direction.
