Nearly three million vehicles from Tesla and ten other Chinese automakers are being recalled over hidden emergency door releases that could trap occupants in crashes or fires. Brands like Xiaomi, Xpeng, Zeekr, and Lynk & Co. are joining the fix with warning labels and software updates. The issue stems from electronic door latches—convenient but risky if they fail after impact. China plans to ban hidden handles by 2027, while U.S. regulators are investigating, pushing for clearer manual release systems. This underscores the growing tension between tech convenience and safety in modern cars.
