don't do that. but fish say the vehicle's brakes will still function even if the accelerator becomes trapped. there's been no reports of any accidents because of this issue. but this recall does affect all 2024 cybertruck made between november 13th of last year and april 4th of this year. tesla is also delaying deliveries of new trucks until they can fix that design issue. i just saw 2 yesterday there but they're still rare in that that >> in the south bay, san jose police have arrested 2 men and a woman connected to a kidnapping and torture of a man was back in february that police say a man was held against his will and assaulted multiple times at a house on million court. >> it's not far from the reid-hillview airport they say the man was released about a day later and ended up checking himself into a hospital. officials say that's how they learned of these 3 people who were they say responsible for the assault during the arrest. police say they found illegal gambling machines and marijuana for sale at the suspect's home.
