So, is Tesla “looking at” redesigning the door latch system because people have died, or because of lawsuits arising from such deaths?

During the development process, were concerns raised by design engineers that system failures (not necessarily as a result of accidents) could cause passengers to be trapped inside a vehicle?

And if so, were the engineers overridden by upper management over concerns about cost and/or schedule?

And was there any retaliation against such engineers if they “blew the whistle” over Tesla’s practices?

Did you read the article? Or, are you among those who wish to remain blissfully ignorant?

Given your defiant attitude about the strict avoidance of reading the manual for any car you own, I'm guessing the latter.

Frankly, I'm surprised you even know how to type and post here on FR. Did someone tell you how to do this, or did you read up on it of your own volition?
