Gilbert Arenas says son Alijah's fiery Cybertruck crash was caused by steering wheel malfunction

  • Alijah Arenas, Gilbert Arenas' 18-year-old son and a top USC basketball prospect, crashed his Tesla Cybertruck in Los Angeles early on April 24.
  • The crash resulted from a steering wheel malfunction that caused Alijah to lose control and collide with a tree and fire hydrant.
  • Alijah was trapped in the burning vehicle for about 10 minutes and was rescued through a crack in the bulletproof window by bystanders.
  • Gilbert Arenas advised that parents of teens who drive this vehicle should consider keeping a tool, like a hammer, accessible to help break the windows in case of an emergency, as escaping through them can be very difficult.
  • Alijah was hospitalized, placed in an induced coma, has since been released, and is recovering with plans to start his college basketball career at USC this fall.
