Aug 5 (Reuters) - The National Highway Traffic Safety

Administration said on Monday it was seeking more information

about an accident involving Tesla's Cybertruck from the

electric vehicle maker.

The driver of the electric pickup truck was declared dead as

a result of the accident in Texas's Chambers County, according

to media reports.

Tesla and the Chambers County Sheriff's Office did not

immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment.

The automaker began delivering the "Blade Runner"-inspired

truck in November 2023 after years of delay and a difficult

production ramp-up. "We dug our own grave with Cybertruck," Musk

said about the vehicle.

The NHTSA said Tesla has issued four recalls for its

2024 Cybertruck.
