Owners/service Manual Problems of Tesla Model 3

Due to the manual locks being looked at as a safety issue, I went and looked at the rear door manual release for our Model 3. We also have a 2023 model y and I know they have a rear door release, as stupid as the location is, it is there. Well to my surprise, there is no manual rear door release in the Model 3!!! how is this even safe? you're supposed to crawl through the front seats and go out the front door? or even worse, fold the seats down and exit through the trunk? what happens if you're stuck in the back, can't get your seatbelt off? what if you are incapacitated?? what if you get rear ended and then pushed into the car in front of you and it makes it so the front doors are unable to be opened? (this happens quite often) what if the car rolls over, is upside down and you can't get to the front? there are a million situations that make a rear manual door release necessary. How does this even pass safety inspection??? how do you (as a department) even allow this to be acceptable. How are children supposed to do this? this has to be one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard of and here I am, driving my kids every day around in it. They should be required to either retrofit it with a release that's accessible or replace the rear doors with an accessible release. I'm just in awe as to the failures here.

Front seats have a manual door release in case of emergencies. Rear occupants do not have an emergency door release. I do not want my children to die in a fireball death inside the car. Please ask Tesla to retrofit the fix they provided to other Model 3 cars. Please see this video on the Tesla fix: https://youtu. Be/m6reh0csyzk (jump ahead to the 2 min mark). My car does not have this on either side for the rear occupants. Please see attacked picture.

This was not an event, but a feature that could result in injury or death. I am very concerned that the passenger doors do not have mechanical release levers should the car loose power. That means I could be trapped in the car if I am in the back seat. I am 65, and climbing over the seat would be difficult for me. The owner's manual says I can crawl through the trunk which has a manual release, but that is even harder. I practiced it with the trunk empty, and it was very difficult. With luggage in the trunk it could be impossible. We often carry people in their 80's in the back seats as well, and explaining these emergency procedures is quite anxiety-provoking. I myself have claustrophobia. I have discussed this with a Tesla representative, who is going to put it through as a suggestion. I asked to have the door handles replaced with door handles equipped with emergency release levers, but I am told that this is not an option at this time.
