STORY: Tesla is recalling close to 4,000 of its Cybertrucks to fix an accelerator pedal that can get stuck, increasing the risk of a crash.

That's according to a safety recall notice on Friday from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The auto safety regulator said Tesla will replace or repair the accelerator pedal assembly at no charge and owners will be notified through letters mailed to them in June.

Tesla started deliveries of its electric pickup truck late last year, after a two-year delay due to production problems and battery-supply constraints.

Friday's recall announcement marks the latest setback for the electric car maker.

In the first quarter of 2024, Tesla had three recalls affecting about 2.4 million vehicles, according to a report by recall management firm BizzyCar.

However, most issues related to Tesla recalls are usually resolved through over-the-air software updates.

Shares of Tesla were lower in midday trading Friday, adding to the stock's five-day losing streak.
