Family Sues After Daughter Burned Alive in Tesla

The family of a college student killed in a Cybertruck car crash has sued Tesla, claiming the design of the vehicle's doors were a "death trap." Krysta Tsukahara (19) and two others were killed when the driver of the vehicle rammed into a tree in Piedmont, CA in Nov 2024. Ms. Tsukahara, a college student, was riding in the backseat and became trapped inside the Tesla Cybertruck as it burst into flames. She was unable to find the manual door releases when the vehicle's battery caught fire. The doors are electronically powered, but when there's no power, riders must use the manual door releases, according to the vehicle's owner manual. To do this from the rear seat, the passenger must remove the rubber mat on the bottom of the rear door's pocket, pull the mechanical release cable forward and then push the door open.

According to the filing, the Tesla Cybertruck "lacked a functional, accessible, and conspicuous manual door release mechanism, fail-safe, or other redundant system for emergency egress." Felon Musk is racking up a small, but growing, body count of victims killed by his poorly designed, over-priced mobile death traps. The 2025 Tesla Cybertruck starts at $72,235 and goes up to $117,235. Recently in Germany three people were barbequed alive when they couldn't escape their Tesla after a crash: Three Killed in Tesla Death-Mobile. Incredibly, the worst person in the world just received a stunning pay package worth as much as $1 trillion. Young Krysta Tsukahara (pictured below) and the other two victims were just starting out their lives when the Tesla death mobile killed them; unclear is how the college student driving the car was able to afford such an expensive vehicle or if the lethal contraption belonged to the parents.
