"Usually, I wake up at 4:30 and I go through the Tesla app to see if he's heading home or at the gym. His car is at the gym, so I continue my workout and my daughter said, 'What are you doing?' I said, 'I'm working out.' She said, 'You haven't heard? Your son just got in an accident.' 'At the gym?' 'No he's at the hospital,'" said the elder Arenas.

"I just stopped everything and ran over there and was like, 'What the hell's going on? Was it his car? What's going on?' I realized the app actually malfunctioned. I found that out a couple days later when he started waking up," he added.

Alijah Arenas crashed into a fire hydrant and then a tree. His Cybertruck then caught fire, but bystanders pulled Arenas out of the car. He was placed into a medically induced coma but is now awake and on the road to recovery.
