- Emergency Situations: In scenarios like power failures or accidents, quickly escaping the rear seat is critical. Built-in manual releases are essential for safety.
- Hidden Releases: Tesla’s manual door releases are concealed under panels, making them difficult to locate in urgent situations.
- Custom Tags: Some owners design keytags resembling aircraft cords with labels like “Pull to Eject.”
- Enhanced Visibility: These tags not only highlight the releases but also provide a solid grip.
Consumers can also find aftermarket solutions:
- Tesery’s “Safety Pull Cord”: An OEM-style alternative.
- EV Dynamics Paracord Kit: Includes installation options and visible labels for easier access.
These DIY and aftermarket kits underscore a gap in Tesla’s design—emergency releases should be more visible and accessible. If you're a Tesla owner concerned about safety, these solutions offer peace of mind.
