San Francisco-Tesla Model y owners report a worrying technical problem with high-tech electric cars that close children at home.
“The most common scenarios that were reported included the parents coming out of the car after the driving cycle in order to remove a child from the back seat or put a child in the back seat before the start of a engine cycle. The parents were unable to reopen the door to restore access to the car,” which is the investigation report conducted by the US National Traffic Safety Department on the highway.
NHTSA Investigation has received nine separate reports on the problem from Tesla Model Y 2021.
In four accidents, parents resorted to breaking the windows to restore the entry. “Although Tesla vehicles have manual versions of the doors inside the cabin, in these cases, the child may not be able to reach or operate versions even if the car driver is familiar with them. The deviation in a vehicle is particularly related in emergency situations, as when children are detained in a hot vehicle,”
Based on the preliminary review of ODI, the problem appears to occur when the electronic doors are locks enough effort from the car. Model Y Malekins said they did not see any low warnings of the voltage battery before the external door handles became broken.
Problems have also been reported to lock doors in Tesla from the collisions that left Tesla electronic company in fire, and it appears that drivers and passengers are closed at home.
