Nah that sounds like a hardware issue. Software should never dictate whether a door opens. Hell we have laws that require a manual emergency release from inside of trunks (many require it be lighted I believe as well). I don’t see how a hardware could be allowed to rely on software to open a door and be legal.
Wait you don’t just pull the lever you have to pull a rip cord under the lever? Or am I viewing that wrong. Who would think that’s a good idea, just attach the wire to the lever so it unlocks like a normal door handle. That’s some seriously bad engineering.
Yup, and trying to remember that in an already intense situation. That’s why people drown and burn to death in their Tesla. Oh, bonus point, you can’t use it to test it, because it’s one time use and breaks the automatic locking system.
And here I thought mother nature was pissed off because we were fucking over the environment. It’s probably because we are fucking over the environment for absolutely shit products.
I blame that one on the physical design. Probably mandated by Musk. No one who knows about software would make the decision to require the use of software to be able to exit the car. :P
There are mechanical door releases that I figured Tesla owners knew about. They kinda blend in and now I see how someone might not be aware of their existence.
This the guy that made the car trap you to death when the car needed and “update” lmao

My understanding is that there is a hardware release, but it’s not intuitive. https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/model3/en_us/GUID-A7A60DC7-E476-4A86-9C9C-10F4A276AB8B.html

LOL are they serious!?
Then you have to fumble around for a secret panel to find a piece of string??
This shit should be illegal! No wonder people are dying.
