Furious Tesla Cybertruck driver is turned away from car wash for bizarre reason

A Tesla Cybertruck driver was left furious after she was turned away from a car wash. 

Courtney Ferris posted a video of her recent experience after taking her futuristic truck to a car wash before being turned away.

After arriving, the Los Angeles- based woman revealed a sign near the entrance that read: 'Tesla Cybertrucks Not Allowed.' 

'Well, it turns out you can't go through this car wash with a Cybertruck. 

'I don't know why, but they don't allow Cybertrucks. It must be because they are too big maybe, or look like a dumpster. I don't know,' Ferris said. 

Meanwhile, under the bold font on the sign, the business added: '(Tesla Warranty does not cover Car Wash damage).' 

Ferris, a photographer and videographer, captioned her post, which has amassed more than 422,000 views, 'hand wash only.' 

Commenters quickly flocked to share their reactions as one said: '"Looks like a dumpster" LOL.' 

Another person said: 'A lot of car washes refuse cyber trucks.'

'Thank you for this information I will no longer take my cybertruck to this car wash,' another said. 

While some people shared in Ferris' disappointment, others revealed that they were already aware that the electric truck wasn't allowed in a car wash. 

'They break and are insurance liabilities,' one person said. 

'Because they are literally built like plastic toy cars, a simple car wash can damage it lol,' wrote another.  

'Because they keep shorting out in car washes and getting stuck,' another suggested. 

Someone else said that the water from the car wash could damage the outside of the vehicle. 

'The water is actually really bad for the exterior if not properly dried afterwards, meaning it could ruin the car and make them legally liable.' 

According to the company's website, 'Tesla does not recommend taking Cybertruck through an automatic car wash.' 

Instead, Tesla recommends that drivers 'use isopropyl alcohol wipes (such as those used to clean glasses or screens) to clean away small stains.'

The website also specified that each Cybertruck has a 'Car Wash Mode' that is supposed to be used by drivers when visiting an automatic car wash. 

'Failure to put Cybertruck in Car Wash Mode may result in damage (for example, to the charge port or windshield wipers). Damage caused by car washes is not covered by the warranty,' Tesla added. 

DailyMail.com contacted Tesla and Ferris for comment. 

Since being released last year, the unique car, worth about $80,000, has taken the nation by storm not just for its non-traditional look, but also its many faults. 

Last month, New York State trooper Joe Fay, 29, shared that he's an unabashed fan of Teslas. 

The silver Cybertruck owner posted a video on TikTok called 'five things I hate about my Cybertruck.' 

Fay first shared his dismay with the paintwork on the trendy, angular four-wheelers.

He revealed that there are 'fingerprints absolutely everywhere' across its sharp-edged stainless-steel body. 

'Every time you touch the truck, there are fingerprints left behind,' he added, pointing to a smattering of grubby marks.

He then complained on the design of the central console, which he says is static and poorly designed.

The content creator then focused on how the truck gate must be closed manually, and how the huge windshield is 'nearly impossible to clean' from the interior. 

His biggest complaint was that the eye-catching car actually slows him down while he runs his errands, as people often stare at it and even approach him. 

'This truck draws so much attention that you cannot drive anywhere without people coming up to your window, screaming at you, yelling at you, and just wondering what this is,' Fay revealed. 

Seemingly, Fay has been stuck in parking lots outside stores with bags of groceries unable to dodge conversations with vehicle fans.

'If you want to go anywhere quick with this truck, you just can't do it,' he adds.

'Every place you go is going to take 10 to 15 minutes longer because people want to stop and talk about the truck.'

Tesla CEO Elon Musk once touted the vehicle as 'apocalypse proof,' but the EV has required no less than four recalls since it debuted in late November of 2023.

The billionaire tech mogul has put the EV to the test in several demonstrations, including shots from a Tommy gun, a 45- and nine-millimeter pistol. 

Nevertheless, the unusually designed and angular EV has been criticized for leaning into design aesthetics over safety, including sharp-edged trunks and doors that can sever human fingers and other appendages.
