Tesla owners are modifying their cars to be escapable if the car catches fire, because the doors stop working like normal and you need to rely on well-hidden mechanical overrides.

Which… feels pretty dangerous, like that’s the worst possible time for the doors to stop working like normal.

    That’s just for a few models and just on the front two doors, the rear you have to remove a panel you also have to know exists because it’s not marked in hivis. The fun one is that Tesla says you break your warranty if you actually use any of the manual releases including the y’s really accessible front one.
