Numerous Tesla owners have said they’ve been stuck inside their EVs after the cars suddenly lost power.

YouTuber Tom Exton claimed that his Tesla Model Y ordered him to pull over before it suddenly lost power and left him unable to exit.

Exton followed the instructions for the manual release to open the door, but he said this “somehow broke the driver’s window.”

      No, lack of depth perception is a bad thing when reversing a car. I’m not sure why you think that’s some sort of controversial opinion.

        Because ive never heard of anyone else ever making the same dumb mistake as you. They put the lines on the screen to show you the depth and once you hit the red danger zone you have a few more inches before you hit anything, so it’s pretty laughable you stepped on the gas too hard and blamed the camera.

        But idk if there are statistics on backup cameras being dangerous, please share and i will go rip it out of my car right now!
