(Reuters) -General Motors Cruise co-founder and chief product officer Daniel Kan has resigned, the company told Reuters on Monday, a day after Cruise Chief Executive Kyle Vogt resigned.
A Cruise spokesperson said Kan announced his resignation via a Slack message. The company did not offer other details.
The new departure comes at a tumultuous time for self-driving taxi maker Cruise, which is undergoing a safety review of its U.S. fleet, prompting Vogt to resign on Sunday.
Vogt, 38, offered little explanation, saying simply “I have resigned from my position” in an email to staff seen by Reuters on Sunday.
