Krysta Tsukahara, 19, and Jack Nelson, 20, who were both sitting in the rear passenger seats, tragically died in the early morning crash on November 27. The Cybertruck in which they were travelling smashed into a tree and caught alight. They were unable to escape. The driver, Soren Dixon, 19, was also killed in the crash in California, US, while a fourth passenger, Jordan Miller, managed to flee the vehicle after a passer-by broke the windscreen with a tree branch. It has been claimed that the electronic door release system failed after the Cybertruck lost power.

According to the lawsuit, which was filed in Alameda County Superior Court, Krysta died of smoke inhalation. It further claims that the emergency manual interior door release is extremely difficult to locate. The family attorney Roger Dreyer said: “It’s just a horror story. Tesla knows that it’s happened and that it’s going to happen, and they are doing nothing but selling the car with a system that entraps people and doesn’t provide a way of extraction." In an emailed statement, Todd Nelson and Stannye Nelson said: "The four young people in the Cybertruck were close friends and outstanding individuals, each on the verge of making meaningful contributions to the world."
