A complaint regarding singer D4vd’s abandoned Tesla was made on August 26, almost two weeks before the decomposing body of a missing teenager was discovered inside, has learned.
Celeste Rivas-Hernandez’s body was discovered in the trunk of a Tesla Model X registered to viral singer D4vd on September 8. She had been missing since April 2024, when she was only 13.
Private investigator Steve Fischer obtained the initial complaint report, vehicle impound report, and photos of D4vd’s Tesla from when it was declared abandoned. He informed “Banfield” on Friday that neighbors had noticed the car had been parked in the same spot for an extended period.
D4vd’s neighbor believed car was there for ‘over a month’

Fischer told that when he spoke to neighbors of D4vd, one of them noted that they were “certain” the car had been there for “over a month.”
To be towed from a street where there were no parking restrictions, “it had to be there quite a while,” Fischer added.
Fischer also noted that the only identifying feature in the report was the dent on the car; there was no mention of the odor of a decomposing body.
D4vd’s Tesla was parked in ‘strategic area’ before it was towed
Fischer said D4vd’s car was parked about “150 feet” from the Hollywood Hills mansion where he was staying, in a “strategic area.”
He described the parking spot as a place where few people would walk by, and “as good a place to leave it as any.”
Following the police raid on his home Sept. 17, D4vd broke the $20,000-a-month lease on the mansion.
D4vd canceled all remaining dates of his “Withered” tour following the discovery of Celeste’s body and the rumors regarding his connection to her.
Timeline of car being reported and towed
According to the reports, D4vd’s Tesla was reported “abandoned” to authorities Aug 26.
An officer first inspected and cited the car on August 27, with another ticket issued on September 3, before it was eventually towed and impounded on September 5, three days prior to the discovery of Celeste’s body.
Fischer explained that in Los Angeles, “a traffic officer must conduct at least three visits” before a vehicle can be towed to ensure it hasn’t been moved for over 72 hours.
D4vd and Celeste were ‘romantically involved’ according to friends
TMZ senior news reporter Charlie Neff told “Banfield” on Thursday that acquaintances of D4vd from the Los Angeles music scene disclosed to her that he and Celeste were frequently seen together and were “romantically involved.”
The friends added that they were under the impression that Celeste was a student at the University of Southern California.
“No one really questioned much about her background … they just knew her as this college student that went to USC,” Neff said.
