'You can't get more L.A. than this!' Cybertruck driver crashes into iconic Beverly Hills hotel - then asks Elon Musk for a new one and tries to blame it on hotel's 'valet'

A Tesla Cybertruck driver crashed into the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel and asked Elon Musk for a new one after blaming the hotel's valet service. 

Users on X have entered a fierce back-and-forth after claims that a Tesla cybertruck driven by one of the Beverly Hills Hotel's valet workers smashed the electric pickup truck into the L.A. hotspot. 

A post on X included a dramatic photo of the futuristic car wedged right below the fancy hotel's infamous sign. 

The brand new stainless steel 'cyberbeast' had its door ripped off by the crash, which called for the police to show up on the scene.

During the 2 am incident, the vehicle became lodged on top of the raised curb and into the palm leaves surrounding the entrance sign.

Musk, responded to the post and weighed in on the crash, saying 'Tesla supertruck with crazy torque, dynamic air suspension, and corners like it's on rails'

The user, @jackdidthatt, captioned the picture '@elonmusk the beverly hills hotel valet just crashed my friends brand new cybertruck outside pulling it around!! Can you help out in getting another??' 

Musk, responded to the post and weighed in on the crash, saying 'Tesla supertruck with crazy torque, dynamic air suspension, and corners like it's on rails.'

However, the valet company's business owner has clapped back against the claims, insisting that they have had a 'strong reputation' in the Beverly Hills community for 70 years.

Dorchester Collection is the valet company that handles parking for visitors of the luxurious L.A. hotel. 

The owner confirmed that the electric vehicle was not being driven by one of his employees at the time of the crash and it was the Tesla's owner who slammed the car into the hotel.

'This cyber truck was not driven by valet last night,' the valet manager said. 'It was the owner.'

In a message to someone who had shared footage of the crash, the valet owner said the post was 'hurting a small business' and asked them to remove the it.

The original poster confirmed the valet's involvement was a rumor, saying their X upload was drafted as a 'joke' they made, thinking it would be 'funny to say it was valet' and not their friend who 'just crashed his new cybertruck.'

Despite the truck being known for durability, with stainless steeling paneling and  borosilicate glass, the car appeared to be torn up by the crash.

Tesla's CEO first publicly announced the idea for his pickup truck in 2012, describing the vehicle as a 'Tesla supertruck with crazy torque, dynamic air suspension, and corners like it's on rails.'

However, there have been multiple flaws found in the Cybertruck - most recently including the truck's 'aero covers'. 

The futuristic EV's aerodynamic wheel covers are causing wear on the tires, which could lead to surprise punctures and 'blow outs,' endangering lives on the road.

Even a brand new Cybertruck after 'a couple thousand miles' appears to show tire damage from these poorly designed hubcaps, according to the CEO of a third-party Tesla parts manufacturer who discovered the issue.

Drivers have also found that their almost $80,000 Tesla trucks are rusting after as little as two days in the rain. 

Several customers who recently purchased the $79,900 vehicle reported rust littering the outer shell after driving it for 'two days in the rain.'

One owner named Will shared his experience on a Cybertruck forum, stating he purchased his Tesla truck on February 1 and noticed corrosion forming on the metal after 11 days of use - putting just 381 miles on it. 

The Cybertruck was taken to a facility, but staff told him they did not have the proper tools to repair the exterior and that it would take about one month to receive them. 

Musk mentioned last year that owners will soon have the option of purchasing a tungsten carbide coating that helps protect against corrosion - but for an added unknown cost.

In February, Tesla owners faced a double whammy - with news that almost all the cars sold in America are to be recalled AND another 334,000 may need a fix too. 

The EV giant is recalling 2.2 million- including the S, Y and Cybertruck - because some warning lights on the instrument panel are too small.

Safety regulators say that the brake, park and antilock brake warning lights have a smaller font size than required by federal safety standards. That can make critical safety information hard to read - increasing the risk of a crash.  

Meanwhile, a separate investigation into steering problems with more than 334,000 Teslas is a step closer to a recall.

The NHTSA began looking at that problem last July after receiving a dozen complaints about loss of steering control in 2023 Model Y and 3 vehicles.
