An analysis released earlier this year found that the rate of fire fatalities in the Cybertruck's first year is higher than what the notorious Ford Pinto saw during its nine-year production life. And the Cybertruck has also seen several recalls in order to fix issues such as faulty acceleration pedals and an exterior panel at risk of detaching. Still, when the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration published results of its first Cybertruck crash test in late February, the car received a five-star overall safety rating —the safest rating a vehicle can earn.
