Student, 19, and 2 Others Killed After Being Unable to Escape Tesla Cybertruck Crash Due to Alleged Design Flaw, Parents [View all]

Tesla is being sued for an alleged design flaw that may have prevented a teenager from escaping a Cybertruck after a fiery crash, according to court documents.

Passengers Krysta Tsukahara, 19, and Jack Nelson, 20, died alongside driver Soren Dixon, 19, when the Tesla they were traveling in crashed at high speed into a tree in Piedmont, Calif., on Nov. 27. A fourth person was also injured in the collision.

Krysta’s parents, Carl and Noelle Tsukahara, attempted to get answers about the incident by filing a lawsuit in April.

They filed an amended wrongful death lawsuit on Thursday, Oct. 2, alleging that Tesla’s design for Cybertruck doors made it nearly impossible for Krysta to exit the vehicle despite having sustained non-life-threatening injuries when the crash occurred, KTVU Fox 2, San Francisco Chronicle and the New York Times reported.
