Normally, when you want to open the door, you push the door button, the door window drops and opens an inch or so, clearing to door seals. The emergency door releases force the windows through the door seals without the window drop. If you do that too much, you'll damage the door seals. If you do it rarely, it doesn't matter.
Just another incredible design flaw that never should have made it to production.
That sounds like a horrible design for a car door lol. Did they not see how all the other car doors worked before they built theirs?
Yeah you should see the problems with Tesla's and water in the air vent system. They can't handle rain or car washes very well cause the dipshits who designed em never bothered to look at how actual car designers dealt with keeping water out of the venting system.
Other car doors with frameless windows are the same way, what makes their case more special is the electronic latches and other cars with the style of window and electronic latches are the same way as Tesla.
Who came up with that garbage design? LOL
That is normal for frameless window door cars with electric opening door latches.
The emergency handle is only supposed to be used in an emergency, so damage from forcing the past the seal isn't really a concern.
Well that's just shitty car design. Guess that's what you get when you have a bunch of software and computer engineers try to make a car.
A lot oft cars do that
