    Some important corrections:

    • The doors did not open from the outside, presumably because they were locked
    • The hero who tried to rescue the people inside was hitting the window with a tree branch, but the windows didn’t crack until after over a dozen swings
    • The article says nothing about opening the doors from the inside; if you are ever in that situation, cybertrucks have a manual release under the rubber mat of the “map pocket” in the doors (source)

      under the rubber mat of the “map pocket” in the doors

      That sounds like a real shit place to try finding in a smoke and fire filled car. That thing needs a recall and crushed into cybercubes.

      Obviously they tried the door handles first unless they were knocked out. And to have a manual release in such a stupid, hidden spot? Don’t try to be an apologist for Tesla. There is no excuse for making such poorly designed cars these days.

      I’ve been in the Model Y with the stupid wing doors and the release is behind the speaker covers in the door. The speaker covers are not easy to grab or remove. That’s when I have the user manual open and there isn’t a lithium fueled fire burning me up in seconds

      Corrections to what? Does the article get any of these points wrong?

      That’s an irresponsible, deadly, anti-human design feature, but thanks for the tip I guess.
