    In the panic of your flesh getting pretty hot, you gotta remember “use the manual release lever”.

    If you’re in the front seat.

    If you’re in the back seat you:

    1. Hope your model Y is equipped with a manual lever.
    2. Assuming you are still alive (see (1)) - Remove the mat from the bottom of the rear door pocket.
    3. Press the red tab to remove the access door.
    4. Pull the mechanical release cable forward.

    I hope your kids and passengers paid attention to the training video you had them watch.

      It actually depends on the model, it may be under the seat, behind the speaker, in the door pocket. It’s insane.

        Yeah - and as somebody reminded me in another thread it’s because you can damage the window by using it.

        It’s such a well-designed car.

            The reason it’s “hidden” is to prevent it from being used when the car is NOT on fire.

            It’s a well-designed car.
