    Tesla has faced criticism in the past for the design of its manual release levers, which are considered poorly designed and unintuitively placed

    Calling it poorly designed is a massive understatement. The manual release is a wire that is hidden behind a hidden panel. A guy made a video showing how to do it and he struggled to do it despite having practiced a few times in advance. The chance of pulling it off while the car was on fire would be very, very low

      I have a friend who won’t put his kids in the back of his Tesla because of this.
