Tesla Remotely Unlocks Cybertruck After Child Is Locked Inside

A Tesla owner says his Cybertruck unexpectedly auto-locked with his 1-year-old son inside after he stepped out to plug in at a Supercharger, leaving his phone key in the vehicle. After borrowing a nearby driver’s phone, he contacted Tesla, which verified the vehicle information and remotely unlocked the truck within minutes. He shared the incident to warn other owners about a possible phone-key disconnect scenario.

The incident highlights the importance of having a backup vehicle access method and knowing Tesla’s remote support options.
