Lol what a load of shit. This chick is dumb at least 3 ways:

  1. The app and the car warn you that the thing will be unavailable when you select update. GET OUT of the car. Has she never seen the warnings of how fast a car heats up? Like why you can't leave your dog or a kid in the car to run into a store "really quick"?

  2. Literally 2 in every 3 people who ride in your car pull the manual release. It is not a big deal if you don't use it every time. It's as though she's never had a passenger in 6 years. I just don't buy it.

  3. Most importantly, THIS IS WHAT THE MANUAL LATCH IS DESIGNED FOR.

There are many, MANY design features of a Tesla that suck (as anyone who has one will tell you), but article is clickbait from user stupidity. She needs to wear her helmet at all times for not using the feature designed to let her get out at any moment. Even IF she bent the weather stripping, it would cost less than her chicken sandwiches to fix.
