Tesla is facing a lawsuit from the parents of a 19-year-old college student from California who died in a deadly Cybertruck crash in late 2024.
Notably, the crash happened in November 2024 in Piedmont, a city in the San Francisco Bay Area.
The lawsuit filed by Tsukahara’s parents, Carl and Noelle, focuses on the design of the Cybertruck’s door system.
The family claims that Krysta survived the initial crash and was alive after the impact, but was trapped as the fire spread.
Recently, the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) also initiated a preliminary investigation into 174,000 Tesla Model Y cars from 2021 because of reported problems with their electronic door handles.
