Cybertruck crash raises alarm bells about Tesla's self-driving
software
A crash involving a Tesla opens new tab Cybertruck in self-driving
mode this week has sparked worries about the reliability of the
company's software that powers the feature, days after CEO Elon Musk
said he would roll out a paid robotaxi service this year.

Tesla has for years faced criticism and investigations over the safety
of its advanced driver assistance software following several crashes,
including a fatal one.

profile of its latest iteration called Version 13.
