Or just ban non-mechanical interior releases? Whats the justification for electronic releases?
My cheap car has electronic locks on all doors but the mechanical interior releases defeat them (but not on the rear doors).
A neat feature I noticed the other day is that operating the release once won't let the door actually open, it only partially unlatches it and to open the door you have to hold the lever open and push the door. Great safety design.
- qzw 2y agoYou might have child safety locks engaged on the rear doors by default. If you don’t have small children, you might be able to find a switch or setting to turn that feature off.
- vel0city 2y agoWe've had child safety locks for doors long before we had the door handles be electronic.
- gruez 2y ago>Or just ban non-mechanical interior releases? Whats the justification for electronic releases? For frameless windows. The door needs to retract the window before you open it, otherwise you might damage the window.
- dkjaudyeqooe 2y agoYes, pretty framesless windows is surely a justification forsuch a deathtrap.
- toast0 2y agoMy fancy new car has push to open doors and monitors the surroundings so it won't open if it detects a car or bicycle moving in the direction of the door. Could be handy. But it's also designed reasonably. The lever you push to open can be pulled twice to open mechanically. There's no secret lever somewhere nobody knows about. Two different sales people told us to push or pull twice to open.
