Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console.

This garbage feature was spotted in the wild, where a Charger owner posted a photo of their infotainment screen absolutely hijacked by an ad for an extended warranty. Take a look!

We’re seeing another sticky situation develop, the same day Tesla recalled 46,096 Cybertrucks to stop them from falling apart because the stainless steel panels are held on with the wrong glue.

This time, it’s the Cybertruck’s off-road light bar that’s flinging itself off at highway speeds. Incredibly, the light bar is also glued in place, so we are wondering if there isn’t another recall coming down the pipe.

Here is one driver whose Cyberbeast tossed his light bar at highway speeds.

What’s that they say about the definition of insanity? Something about towing with a Cybertruck, probably.

Here’s a video to watch for a laugh, a Cybertruck towing over light snow… with predictable results.

As the truck loses traction, the trailer jackknifes like it just remembered it had somewhere to be, slams into the back of the Cybertruck, and then nails a tree for good measure. The best part? The driver shouting, with perfect comedic timing, “NOT AGAIN!”

Zeekr, the electric luxury brand of Geely, China’s third-largest auto manufacturer by 2024 volume, is making headlines with its new self-driving technology, G-Pilot. The system, which will be available for free, could make it an even tougher sell for Tesla to market Full-Self Driving (FSD) as a premium upgrade.

Will Zeekr’s new G-Pilot system be a genuine game-changer, or just a more polished version of its problematic predecessor, NZP (Navigation Zeekr Pilot)? We’ve done the legwork, watched the footage, and broken it all down for you.

We’re only 18 days into March 2025, and already we’ve seen 9 instances of Tesla dealerships, Supercharger stations, or parked vehicles torched or shot in a wave of vandalism worldwide. That’s including 2 arson attacks over the last 24 hours, in Las Vegas and Kansas City.

We’ve mapped the incidents of arson and gunfire in the United State and across Europe, here are the maps and the details of each incident.

Mark Rober just set up one of the most interesting self-driving tests of 2025, and he did it by imitating Looney Tunes. The former NASA engineer and current YouTube mad scientist recreated the classic gag where Wile E. Coyote paints a tunnel onto a wall to fool the Road Runner.

Only this time, the test subject wasn’t a cartoon bird… it was a self-driving Tesla Model Y.

The result? A full-speed, 40 MPH impact straight into the wall. Watch the video and tell us what you think!

Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console. That’s right, Dodge Charger owners are now experiencing an exciting new feature: pop-up ads that appear every time the vehicle stops at a light. This garbage feature was spotted in the wild, take a look at how it looks.

The data coming out from an independent study of Waymo autonomous vehicles is, frankly, amazing. Swiss Re, one of the largest global insurance firms based out of Zürich, reports that 25.3 million fully autonomous miles drive by Waymo vehicles resulted in a 92% reduction in car crash injuries.

In plain English, Waymo self-driving tech is 12.5x safer than human drivers.

Let's dig into what that means!

The real feature here is buried in Ford's patent filing: it can detect your dog, and feed that information to an automated treat dispenser. If you have to pop into the store, and Rover starts barking, the machine will know and can automatically become dog’s best friend! Or you can absolutely blow your dog’s mind by manually giving them a treat, but through an app, rather than by hand.

Updated with video from reporters on-site at the bottom of the post! Late Sunday night, four Tesla Cybertrucks caught fire in a Seattle holding lot near 2nd Ave S & S Spokane St, just five minutes from the local Tesla dealership. Initially, reports indicated two burning Cybertrucks, but as the fire spread, the number grew to 4 Cybertrucks. Investigators have offered no details as to whether this was arson or another case of a Tesla Cybertruck bursting into flames spontaneously. See video from the scene in the full article.

Between January 10 and January 12, after being warned that an EV rebate program was running out of funds, Tesla dealerships in Canada managed to claim 8,669 individual iZEV EV rebates, or about $43 million CAD in incentives. That’s a staggering number of sales to log in a single weekend, about 1.5 sales per minute. Let's dig into the numbers.

Since 2021, the NHTSA has required the manufacturers of self-driving systems to report crashes involving their technologies. This policy is part of the Standing General Order on Crash Reporting, designed to track real-world safety data and hold companies accountable for their self-driving systems.

This reporting offers helpful insight into how self-driving technology behaves in real-world conditions. However, as I began to review the NHTSA self-driving crash data for myself, I noticed something strange:

Tesla has requested a redaction on every crash report involving their self-driving technology.

Here's what we found when we dug into the data to see what was behind the redactions.

In covering car news, I will sometimes look at a new piece of technology and do a double take. “That can’t be real, it is simply too stupid for a room of automotive engineers to have signed off on it.” Often times, those pieces of tech are on Stellantis vehicles.

Here’s a winner that I had to confirm was real (spoilers, it is real). Popup ads in your car… for the Mopar extended warranty service.

Take a look, it’s the whole bleeping infotainment screen, every time you stop.

Tesla’s Cybertruck, once touted as “the World’s Toughest Truck,” now seems to be gathering rust in inventories across major U.S. metropolitan areas.

A recent count reveals that within 25 miles of some of the top 25 most populous zip codes, a staggering 1,246 Cybertrucks remain in unsold inventory. The total count nationwide of Cybertrucks waiting on a buyer is likely much higher, as these 25 mile segments only account for about half of the US population.

If each Cybertruck sells at the minimum price of $79,990, that’s about $100 million worth of what Ask Car Guys voted overwhelmingly for the Worst Truck Ever Made.

Here’s the data!

We saw an interesting press release from the National Fire Protection Association, they released an EV firefighting video game for free with the help of a private developer and a Department of Energy grant. So far, more than a million firefighters have used the game to learn about fighting EV fires.

Well, that pitch was irresistible to us. We wanted to know more about how EVs work in emergencies, and we get to play video games to do it? Awesome, count me in, let the games begin. Here's how the game plays and what we learned from it.

We all know automakers want to keep tabs on their cars. Stolen vehicle tracking? Sure. Fleet management? Fine. Microphone eavesdropping to serve more ads? Hate it, but OK, that’s a thing. Hold onto your tin-foil hats: Ford just filed a patent for something that takes vehicle tracking into full-blown Twilight Zone territory. Always-On Tracking… In Your Car, or Somebody Else’s.
