Appreciate the sentiment, but surely the cybertruck has some sort of one-pedal drive like (most/all?) other electric cars, where the brake pedal is not needed to decelerate?

I think it was targeted at the accelerator pedal.

The pedal cover was designed to be attached with industrial adhesives, but when it got to the production line, they were having trouble installing it and some production line manager/workers decided to add some soap to it/the process to get it to slide on better.

This ruined the adhesives and the pedal on some vehicles it slipped off, potentially keeping it stuck down if it wedged itself right, triggering a recall where they riveted it on.

INB4: OMG ADHESIVES? Yes, industrial adhesives can be very strong and are already used all over cars. You just don't put soap on them... SMH

In normal driving scenarios sure. The car still has brakes though for emergency and unconventional situations.
