Nothing wrong with the -right- adhesive being used. The problem isn't "glue", it's incompetence.
I don't know enough about specific kinds of epoxy/glues... but has anything actually been reported as to... is it just the wrong kind of glue? applied improperly? combination of both, and/or other errors?
Given that it affects ... basically every cybertruck produced, im guessing its not just one guy or one shift that's incompetent, and more likely a fundamental manufacturing process/materials problem, management or c suite incompetence.
I'd wager a combination of both. Cheaped out on the adhesive and screwed up the application instructions. Probably cheaped out again by cutting the time/temp of the postcure.
WhistlinDiesel on Youtube has a fun video of him destroying a Cybercuck. At one point he's tearing off the trim by hand and you can see that the glue globs were hand-applied pretty much randomly. He also broke the back of the frame clean off when he attempted to tow an F150 out of the mud. And just for fun: when he slammed the doors the interior part broke off.
It's just mind-boggling what absolute pieces of shit these things are.
