      The issue is not the front doors but rather the rear doors. I own a Model Y and the manual rear door release is hidden to the point where it may as well not exist. There is a 0% chance someone unfamiliar with a Tesla would know to look there especially in an emergency.

      I generally really like the Model Y but this is one thing that is always in the back of my mind.

      Same here. The normal button is the hidden feature that I have to teach passengers to use.
