Tesla Cybertruck May Have A Rust Problem::One of the more standout qualities of the Tesla Cybertruck is its bare stainless-steel body. The stainless-steel body gives the Cybertruck a unique design, but
I guess there is still iron in it. Looks like they didn’t use an alloy with enough chromium for the application.
Tesla, cutting corners?! Say it isn’t so!
Well it has to be workable/formable, weldable and crack resistant under stress. Just welding most stainless mess with its ferrous properties.
Forming it screws it up too. Work hardening after forging can make it magnetic.
