A tragic crash in Schwerte, Germany left a father and two children dead after their Tesla struck a tree and caught fire. Witnesses say they tried to open the doors but couldn’t, and one child barely managed to escape.
At the same time, U.S. regulators have opened a new investigation into Tesla’s electronic door handles. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is looking at reports of Model Y handles failing when the 12-volt system drops out — a problem that could affect every Tesla model on the road.
In this video, I break down what happened in Germany, why Tesla’s door design has been so controversial, how it compares to Ford’s recent Mustang Mach-E recall, and why laminated glass and human panic can make escapes even harder during an EV fire.
