      Ok fine, what other manufacturer traps someone inside when the battery fails?

      You mentioned the hidden latch on another thread. Should I bring my question over there instead? I may conflated two discussions because you’re up and down this post defending Tesla’s boneheaded decisions.

        “Should I bring my question over there instead?”

        That’s usually what people do so conversations can actually be followed and come in a logical order…

          I don’t know. I don’t understand why you’re asking me this.

          Because this article is about someone being trapped in a car when the battery died, and saying “it’s hard to tell when a battery is going to fail” skips over the fundamental problem of being unable to open the door when that happens.
