    The “news” is because there is no mechanical backup option. It’s indicative of their “all computer” approach to design.

    There are similar stories of people being stuck at Superchargers when the stupid electrical latch fails. There’s a backup release in the trunk but guess what? It’s also electronic 🤦‍♂️

    Oh and your user manual? Guess what? There’s no copy stored on the car or in the app. There’s no printed copy included in the car. So if you don’t have the wherewithal to print or otherwise save a local copy, and don’t have cell service you’re boned if you need it. When I first got my car it used to crash the entire infotainment system when I tried to open it.
