The video of these defaced vehicles in a parking lot was also shared on Instagram with a user by the username ‘onlyindade’. The video reveals many Tesla Cybertrucks lined one after the other with the same expletive message against Elon Musk. 

A recent report by Electrek had revealed that Tesla has temporarily paused Cybertruck deliveries owing to issues with vehicle's windshield wiper motor. The publication also states that it could be a reason for many Cybertrucks to be held together in such numbers at parking lots. 

Notably, the Tesla Cybertruck deliveries began earlier this year, more than 4 years after the EV pickup truck was first introduced by Elon Musk.
