minus-squareatzanteol@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·7 days ago Some of these cases may be down to user error, since most Teslas come with manual release levers. “Teslas have a massive design flaw that doesn’t make opening the fucking doors obvious like it has been for 100 years”
minus-squareCroquette@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up3·7 days agoYour car is on fire. The battery is burning so you have no fonctioning doors. In the panic of your flesh getting pretty hot, you gotta remember “use the manual release lever”. Yeah, no fucking shit that it happens.

If you’re in the front seat. If you’re in the back seat you: Hope your model Y is equipped with a manual lever. Assuming you are still alive (see (1)) - Remove the mat from the bottom of the rear door pocket. Press the red tab to remove the access door. Pull the mechanical release cable forward. I hope your kids and passengers paid attention to the training video you had them watch.
minus-squaretibi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 days agoIt actually depends on the model, it may be under the seat, behind the speaker, in the door pocket. It’s insane.
minus-squareFermion@feddit.nllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·7 days agoYikes! That’s a service latch, not an emergency release.
minus-squareatzanteol@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·7 days agoYeah - and as somebody reminded me in another thread it’s because you can damage the window by using it. It’s such a well-designed car.
minus-squareTriflingToad@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·7 days agoif the car is burning in a fire I think window damage isn’t my biggest concern lol
minus-squareatzanteol@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·7 days agoThe reason it’s “hidden” is to prevent it from being used when the car is NOT on fire. It’s a well-designed car.
