Tesla Cybertruck owner left embarrassed as dozens of kids playing baseball mock him for breaking down

There’s nothing more humiliating than your car breaking down in front of people, but this Tesla Cybertruck owner was even more embarrassed as his EV broke down in front of dozens of kids playing baseball, a true nightmare.

A situation that started with the Ohio EV driver attempting to be a good dad and take his son to a Little League baseball match ended in disaster because his Tesla glitched and broke down into the dreaded ‘limp mode’.

The rabble of baseball-playing children quickly turned on the Cybertruck driver and the EV they thought was cool before, suddenly became the subject of mockery.

Just a small front trunk issue caused the Ohio dad humiliation in front of a group of children – is there anything worse?

This unfortunate Ohio-based Tesla Cybertruck owner had a small disaster when his EV’s slightly misaligned frunk, also known as a front trunk, turned on him in front of a group of baseball-playing children.

The Ohio dad posted the sorry story on a Tesla Cybertruck Owners’ forum on Facebook, saying that his 10-year-old son’s baseball bag was inside his front trunk.

But it wasn’t fully latched, allowing a few inches of up and down movement.

The EV knew that the Cybertruck trunk was not fully closed, so it went into the dreaded limp mode, meaning it couldn’t go any faster than 15MPH.

As if it couldn’t get any worse, the children who, only a few minutes before thought the EV was awesome, quickly turned on him and began to mock his very slow vehicle.

“After all the screen resets and power shutdown cycles, it was sent to the service center on a flatbed,” the man’s post said.

“I was stuck with a $50 Uber bill, and 28 10-year-old kids went from thinking the Cybertruck was the coolest vehicle to pointing and laughing as it was towed away on a flatbed truck.”

This isn’t the first time a Tesla Cybertruck has suffered from the fallout of a gaggle of small creatures, like this group of raccoons.

But at least the raccoons wouldn’t mock you, like the kids did to this poor Ohio dad.
