Can’t you just remote into it with your iPhone, or something?

That's kind of a cheap shot by Consumer Reports.

Tesla sent somebody over to fix the car right away and they aren't even done reviewing the car yet.

But they just couldn't resist taking the opportunity to be all catty and snotty about it.

This is what you call “over-engineered.” You take a simple device that can’t go wrong — a door handle — and you turn it into some sophisticated interactive robotics device and BLAMMO! Disaster.

A door handle should be such a stable design that it should never fail (at least until ridiculous amounts of wear and tear), and such a simple design that a failure is relatively harmless.

The fix for the door handle problem should be in the operator’s manual—in the glove compartment.
