That's gotta suck.
Are lots having this problem or just enough for this article?
It's sort of amazing, these cars meet the safety regulations of the countries they are sold in. Or is it a case that no one has been this dumb before and they haven't had to regulate for it?
Lots of cars have electronic door releases, and they all have manual handles as well. Tesla's are not difficult to find or use.

Clickbait article. The manual door releases are impossible to miss. Nearly everyone who has ridden in my car has tried to use the manual release first. I have to stop them and explain how to use the electronic release.
Teslas have problems but the door handles aren't one of them.
